As a relative fan of football, I, along with my father purchased the use of a season ticket holder for a pre-season game. The ticket price was 75 dollars per seat X 2 seats. Parking was 35.00 Beer (believe it or not) was 7.50 for bottled and 7.00 for draft. Bottled Water ran 5.00 a pop. No drinks/bottles etc can be brought into the park. No water fountains anywhere. Therefore, we were subjected to buying beer and water and food for this game in the new stadium.
Now, let me make things perfectly clear. I don't begrudge anyone for making a profit on their wares. I know Bob Kraft put in a ton of money to get the stadium built, but does he have to get it all back in 1 season. There was nobody on the field that appeared to be a starter. Brady I think played about 2 minutes and that was that. I feel that for someone spending the amount of money that we did to see our favorite players, even not so favorite players, play a game, even pre season (last preseason game) we should not have been subjected to such that we were. I would not have minded it as much if we got to see a couple of starters.
So, for over 250.00 we got to see a horrible second and third string get their butts kicked by the Colts is highly unreasonable. This is also why I stopped going to see the Celtics and Red Sox. Too high of a price to watch a bunch of overpaid crybabies run around a field. I think I must now add football to that list. Bob Kraft, without the average income fans, you better start lining up some more soccer and concert events. Bacause us fans can only put up with so much before we decide to watch the games on the television.
I think it would be fair to return the ticket amount paid for this game. We left just as the Colts scored. Did not want to even bother staying any longer. Waste of time
