Rangers raise ticket prices, Brett cries, maybe Erin, too
Here is my newspaper story about the Rangers jacking up ticket prices for the playoffs.
My take on this: Teams can charge whatever they want during the regular season. If you don't want to pay the price, don't. It's America, capitalism, etc.
But when you charge outrageously more during the playoffs than the seats cost in the regular season, you are pricing out the loyal fans who have filled those seats all winter at a (presumably) affordable price.
Whatever.
I have to go. Brett is crying. Erin Andrews probably is, too. I talked to her this morning. She is a Packers fan and said she was dreading Brett's retirement news conference.
I have to write a newspaper column now. About Erin, not Brett.

A friend tell me that his downstairs seats at MSG are going for $200/300/400/500 based on the round.
If the Rangers make the 2nd round and play 3 home games in each round, that's a cool $1500 per seat.
Wrong picture. (Hint: if her name is in the head, illustrate 'er.)
