Middle class almost locked out of going in person to world Series, Super Bowl or Final four. Somebody has to pay for these outrageous salaries.
There are 20K packages to tonight’s C’s Finals. The corporate suits or entitled ‘celebrities’....or pink hats as we call them...are the ones that drive up those numbers. The best you can do nowadays, if you want to take a family, is the preseason!
