I know quite a few BYU fans staying home because of the cost of tickets, but I have no problem with them.

Should have started raising prices earlier? Would that have helped?

Tickets are on sale for $37 including fees on Seatgeek. These fans you know are staying home because $37 is too much?

Apparently. Only going off of what I have been told.

It's also a reflection that ticket prices have likely been too low for a while.

If they were $37 several weeks ago, it would’ve sold out.

$37 for bad seats. Several hundred for a good seat.

Are they really that expensive though? You can get tickets for about what a meal
