Ann Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 What’s the most you would pay for a ticket to your favorite concert/sporting event ......... etc? Quote
missyk Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I complain about the cost of tickets often and swore up and down I'd never pay more than $50 for a concert ticket... Until Tim McGraw and Faith Hill came through last summer and Mark told me to go ahead and buy tickets and he'd take me for our anniversary (he doesn't even LIKE country music!). I paid $120 each.

Ry Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 We paid $125.00 a ticket to see Simon and Garfunkel tour a couple of years ago. It was worth every penny. In the middle of the concert the Everly Brothers came out and did a set alone and then played with Simon and Garfunkel on a few songs. It was wonderful-- but there aren't many groups I'd pay that much for. Quote
Larry Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Look don't think i'm to much a tight wad but i think $20.00 is enuff as i just find it hard to justify giving more than that. I'd rather give to my church being as i know they can really use it..... Quote
Maryanne Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 We paid 240.00 to see Roger Waters (Pink floyd) in concert on August 1st. It was actually an anniversary present for ourselves. Great, great seats, well worth it but that was a one time deal, don't think we would do that again. Prices for concerts are absolutely outrageous!! Bring back the 70's saw so many groups then at affortable prices. Maryanne Quote
dchurchi Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I paid $300.00 to see the N.J Devils play the Ducks in the Stanley Cup Finals a few years ago. I am a huge Devils fan so to be able to see them here in California was an opportunity I could not pass up. The Devils lost in O.T. Quote
Ann Posted July 11, 2007 Author Posted July 11, 2007 There are some events that I don't mind paying a high ticket price for but there are other things that I absolutely refuse to pay current ticket prices for. I used to never miss a NASCAR race at Daytona but now you'd almost have to pay me to attend. I'm still a NASCAR fan but I feel the ticket prices have increased to the point that the average person can't afford to go see a race. Some things, like NASCAR, were founded on the common people attending and enjoying. Now, ticket prices are outrageous. Quote
