Carolina Panthers are raising ticket prices

[Rod Butsecks]

(By Darin Gantt, [email protected]) At a time when the team's purging salary, the Carolina Panthers are asking ticket holders for more of theirs.p/ The Panthers announced Friday that they'd raise ticket prices between $1 and $9 per seat. A team spokesman said roughly half the tickets in the stadium would go up between $1 and $3 each.

JR better spend some of that cash he's got on actually assembling an elite roster or the fans are going to send a big "screw you" to his wallet. He is still dealing with an extremely bandwagon fanbase as a whole. Its not like that stadium is full when the Panthers suck...

^Doesnt matter if stands are full or not. Every game is a sell out, whether people come or not, is a different story.

If each seat goes up by an average of $3.50, that's roughly an extra $2 million dollars over the course of a season.

A profit for Richardson of approximately 1.25 julius peppers sacks from last year.

Cmon now, none of this is about money and Richardson sticking it in his pocket. Now he is sticking it to the fans. Don't worry be happy. I am so excited!!

Personally I think it's fair to charge a little more to watch Dave the Janitor, Frank the Bum and some dudes 17 year old son rush the QB next season.

That lead sounds awfully similar to Section 505's post:

Just checked my account online and the invioce has been posted. And yup, after all the salary purging over the last week, Jerry is raising ticket prices.
