i was curious as to what other teams charged for tickets since i saw the cheapest tickets i could get are $16. The crapids has $10 tickets! i know their attendance struggles but c'mon! I feel like i'm getting ripped!

If you buy an endzone season ticket, it's $200 dollars isn't it? That's (I'm assuming 20 games again this year) $10 per ticket. The endzone seats when not purchased as a season ticket are $14. What's $16?

Single game tickets for the home opener for North goal are $16. That's probably where he is getting it from. Haven't seen what single game tickets for other games will sell for...that info isn't available yet.

yeh that is where i was coming from. What i was saying is that Crapids single game cheapest tickets are 10, and ours are 16. Anyone know why??

Take a look at their attendance. :jawdrop:

The reason the Crapids prices are so low is because they suck and no one is going to pay more to watch them. They can't even get people to attend the games at those prices without also giving away a free ball or something. I'd much rather pay $16 to watch RSL than pay $10 to watch the Crapids. I think the saying "you get what you pay for" applies rather well here.

Apparently, single ticket prices have gone up. Does this really surprise any of us though? We have a new stadium to pay for.

When it comes down to it, any true fan has to be willing to bleed a certain amount of green for the team. If I could, I would buy 6 season tickets, 2 for me and my wife, and 4 for my family. Unfortunately, 1) I don't have a money tree in my rented backyard, and 2) I have a little guy on the way, too, so I have to stick with single-game tickets, and unfortunately I will probably spend less on RSL this year than I did last year. This pains me, severely. Honestly, there could be tears. 😢

There is nothing I'd like more for professional sports in SLC than to have a winning, successful, and money-making soccer team here in Salt Lake. I'm willing to contribute as much as I feasibly can to that goal. I'm willing to pay 2 more bucks per seat to do that.

Now, as to charging extra for tickets purchased over the internet ($1.92? per ticket, plus $5.00 per order), that just pisses me off. Honestly, who do they think they are kidding? I do all the work ordering the tickets online. All a Utah Tickets worker has to do is pick up the tickets (one with my address already printed on it, even), throw them in an envelope, and mail them to me. That's IT! And they want to charge me more...
