Dude - no offense, but , I'm a working folk and frankly I've have never experienced a better economy. The "Gov" (B&H) " flooded" our bank accounts with "free" money during covid. That, if you took econ 101, did what ? - shops that almost closed survived and working folks spending that cash into new cars and basic needs kept things going.
Tickets anywhere are discretionary .
Does the Success of the team drive ticket Sales ?
One thing that all Adim at most schools agree upon over is: Success in Sports. primarily Football and Men's Basketball drives enrollment and - enrollment and graduation is the key to both athletics and academic success of a land grant institution.
But I digress, point - 3.5M net for ~ 180K seats? Really??
I understand discretionary spending, and when the price gets too high, that's when people will choose not to spend the money of the product.
