Nothingness Fluff ,part 2

In 1995 and 1997 we thought the same thing. The baseball gods have a cruel way of bringing you back to reality. This time, most Tribe fans a cautiously optomistic. We've been here before. We want to win. If it doesn't happen, it's been a sweet ride.

Cleveland is so used to losing they are just happy when they do win.


... now about those Browns ....

I call it price gouging

No one is forcing you to pay. As much as I love the Tribe, if B-dubs jacked their prices up and charged a cover, I would turn around and head home.

No cover but they will count on drunken fans buying over priced merchandise.

Plus as a business owner it's a good way to insure everyone is there to
Spend money.

Oh I will spend money. I just would choose to spend it elsewhere if I thought they were taking unfair advantage.

People are getting upset over some poor schlub getting a few extra bucks but MLB is jacking up the price of tickets and the tickets brokers are taking it up to the next level.

I don't get why they're so upset. It's no different than restaurants jacking up prices for New Years Eve or florists jacking up prices for Valentines Day.

Supply and demand. Basic microeconomics.

If you don't like it don't buy anything.

Exactly. If mizzou plays for a national title I will gladly pay $1000 or more.

But I'm not gonna bitch about it.

Price gouging is in times of natural disasters. Charging more for the World Series is Capitalism. If they don't like the prices they can go somewhere else.

It's also a good way to alienate the folks that keep you in business all year long

Don't think your going to have to worry about that in the foreseeable future

Kansas might win the big one before Mizzou.



.... it could happen!

 

[joeboodog]

It's the entitlement mentality. "I went to a couple of regular season games so I am entitled to box seats for the World Series." Give me a flipping break. I would love to be at a game with Joeboopup but his college is more important.

The Browns could win the Super Bowl....nah, let's not get carried away.

Very true. I guess that's a chance they're willing to take.
