My new seats are $900.00 for two season seats with very little difference in our vantage point, to me much better value and best of all good times with my son!!
I would hazard a guess some others may consider doing the same thing.
Ultimately the market will decide if certain ticket pricing levels are correct or not, my strategy moving into BMO would have been modest ticket pricing to get people to the stadium, experience the atmosphere (which is great BTW), purchase concessions merchandise etc then gradually increase the pricing over time.
In other words establish the experience, build your foundation and over a period of time increase your profit.
