So let's add it up: parking, four tickets, two kids meals, and hot dogs and beer for mom and dad. Throw in two baseball hats at $19 a pop and a $5 program they can fight over, and we're looking at a grand total of $212.50.

Why would, or should anybody pay $120 to enter publicly owned property?
As the current rules now say, when we pay for it, we own it.
We paid, not only for the stadium, but for the company whose name adorns the stadium.
These are not even the worst prices possible. I have seen Manhattan parents pay $50.00 a pop to bring their children to see the Big Apple Circus exclusive of refreshments, programs, parking etc. Nothing but the tickets and this was several years ago. I'm sure that its more now.
For far less the parents could have subscribed see the games in Staten Island's minor league stadium with refreshments included.
Things like this show the gathering contempt by the ruling class for the rest of us. They can spend less time at the ballfield and more time digging us all out of the mess that their venality and incompetence caused.
How can tickets for a low production start at $30 es ?
Also $6 for cheap tapped nitrogenated poison tap beer. thats already paid for and delivered by a sponsor Those a $2 in Woodside bars. Where is all this rip-off money going ?

Stop giving your money away to the usurpers!

Buy the tickets, bring your own food and take the subway. And when your kids want those insanely priced souveniors, just buy the Chinatown knock-offs!

move to the midwest, problem solved.
No, move the thieves to the midwest, or better yet Death Valley.
There's always minor league, or better yet- little leagues to go to.
I would like to see some of the minor leaguers at Shea. Games are for children first. Today, however, the adults are more infantile than ever.
