My brother in law owns the flea-market and he said anheuser busch limited their free tickets including the suite by 60% because it's not a popular event. They were mad because July is prime selling beer season and August us usually their 5th best selling season.

The nba sold out a record of 760 games this year.

So true. I remember in the late 90’s and early 00’s every kid was a wcw or wwf fan. Kids would wear wrestling tees to school, we would have nwo vs dx in dodgeball. It was nonstop wrestling. At the ocean center they used to draw 16k. A few years ago I went to my first wwe event in 10 years. Only...

Found the Dale one at a store yesterday.

People my age (under 30) don’t have a problem spending money on a experience. Stadiums, arena’s and tracks are changing. There’s more suites, club areas and more open space to socialize. Young people want to watch, go back to the suite or the social area grab a beer and chat with their friends...
