You used to have season tickets until you got gouged out on price.

Will you go?

And if you were to get tickets, would the thing that kept you from going only be that it's going to take three hours for you to get there?

Right next to the condom?

No, Saturday will be fine.

It's not rush hour.

I think you're using outdated information here.

This is not my opinion, though I presented it as mine.

I have heard Samson and Skipper talk about what business people are doing.

with these streaming dollars on the sporting class, and they say that the customer is reduced here who goes to the stadium because of how much money is involved with the high end, that the ticket price on this stuff is not as valuable as the multiples they're getting because they've gotten an entirely, they've gotten all these new streams because all of these owners, when you talk about daily attendance on these games,

It pales compared to the $500 million each of these is going to get when you get one expansion team.

They get to share all the money of the $10 billion in expansion money.

The dollars are so crazy with television that even your overinflated ticket prices are worth less than they've ever been in the mind of the people who are running these games.

When you say we're not there, and you're right, I shouldn't be absolute about these things.

It's not that the customer doesn't matter at all.

It's that the customer matters a lot less.

And while you're saying that they're improving the in-house experience, and Mike, you're also right, and I mentioned that in the preface to it when I said soccer is different than our four major sports, when Skipper talks about the Super Bowl being on pay-per-view, all of this stuff within the next five years, we're headed there and you're feeling it now.

The way that the customer gets reduced to, hey,

You realize that we just need the television dollars and your eyes and your interest.

We don't need you necessarily buying our hot dog anymore.
