We in WPG can't get too cocky...There has to be a tipping point in Pro Sports..where and where is it just too much? Jets increase beer and concession prices well above the rate of inflation as I figure most teams do..Cant leave arenas anymore "for security" and "The Enviroment"..such BS...as much as I love going to games there is a tipping point where it's just too much..it really does seem as though pro sports are shooting them selves in the foot at times. You can't leave the arena because of how often in the past one guy will leave with 2 tickets and bring a buddy in. Beer prices are high because people are willing to pay for it, simple supply and demand. Don't like it, don't drink at the game. Beer prices would go down if people stopped paying so much for them I'm curious how they brought a buddy in? Did they scan out two tickets? Only scanned out tickets can get scanned in..where would they sit anyways? Seats are full..

The no re-entry policy is about keeping spending in the arena. Full stop. m.
