Rep Power: 0  | Yankees raise box seat prices Quote:
Yankees fans are paying the price for supporting baseball's highest payroll.
The price of the box seats closest to the field at Yankee Stadium will jump by $40 to $150 next season, the team said Friday.
Those seats, which are going up 36 percent in price, are for the first four rows in the areas nearest to home plate and are sold as part of season-ticket plans. In the unlikely event any of those seats are available for sale for individual games, they would be priced at $300 in advance and $400 on days of games.
In 2005, New York charged $90 for all field championship seats. The Yankees switched to variable pricing in 2006, charging $95-$110, depending on row and location. Next season's range runs from $115 to $150. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2682986 | They won't to make money, so they raise up there prices. I don't disagree with them one bit.
Thoughts? |
