Seeing as 2 games of the year are worthless and AT LEAST 4 games are worth maybe 3/4 face(being generous) that means to sell the other four games and break even someone has to sell that $99 for 173.25. It just doesn't happen. The people who drive up the prices are the opposing fans to the big games. If our fan base went to more games then it wouldn't be a problem. It isn't the season ticket holders at all. Blame those who aren't season ticket holders (and could be) but still complain.
Now I kind of see where you are comming from. It still doesn't make sense as to why I paid $1100 for 2 $99 tickets. In reality that guy damn near paid for his season tickets with that 1 game.
