Admission Charge
Just as with the NY Yankees, at some point the admission charge will end up scaring away anyone but the most "corporate" types.
The only problem iwth $25 is that it scares away peoiple from just shwing up and at some point the nice families, such as we have who come to shows like the Craig Ranch McKinney, TX show (last month was an exception as we were very slow in terms of people) prefer the free admission.
Now the National can not and should not be free, but perhaps a lower admission cost might actually bring in some new people to attend. If I have $100 to send and $35 or so is spent on parking and admssion I only have $65 left for the vendors.
If I know to park at the MTA (or even take the MTA) and then spend $10 to attend - I have $85 to spend with the vendors. Plus, and I do not know this for sure, but I suspect in this case, lower admission costs would bring in more people.
What this does, is ask more people to buy badges up front.
Just my 1cent (because Leon's quarter is more valuable) worth
