And some formerly discounted seats now require the purchase of four together, this was not required in the past.

I don't think anyone should be surprised ticket prices are going up.

By percentage, what do you feel is a fair increase?

10% or maybe 20% ?? Asking for a friend.

Given the artificially low price point of recent years, 20% this year seems acceptable.

Cool, no argument with that.

The place holds over 13,000 and the biggest crowd was Fiami ~9000 which means "only" 4000 empty seats. Most games were below 50% capacity.

With that in mind, hypothetically, how would you react if your season ticket renewal showed up and the increase was 55% or so? Not lower bowl either.

Since this is hypothetical, there is no right or wrong answer.

"Premium" upper level seats are a whopping $75 now FOR THE SEASON. Plus there's a discount for 4 or more seats. Other upper-level seats are $60, also with an available discount. That's ~$3.75 per game.

No season ticket should be less than $100, IMO. Not sure how anyone could complain about this insanely low pricing.

Very enticing price for the upper level if you've never been a season ticket holder. Doesn't exactly entice springing for the lower bowl.

You ever met John Q Public and his wife Susie Q Public? They can always find something to complain about. Hand dryers, pretzels, popcorn, unsold gold and platinum seating not for sale, band placement, too loud, not enough energy, too many promotions. Just like with education, Greg Abbott telling Ron DeSantis to hold his beer.

I just bought a 4 pack of tickets for my parents and whoever they want to take with them for a total of $170.00 with the $10 fee. I was floored how inexpensive this was for an entire season of games.
