Is the New Orleans Bowl Gouging us?

Is it just me or is the New Orleans Bowl trying to gouge us?

We set record crowds and they keep going up on the price!

Doesn't that help the eventual/potential payout to the Cajuns?

Not if less people buy tickets as a result. What is the maximum price at which you can still maintain maximum demand?

Really? Ya think?

No disrespect meant...sarcasm, sure....lol.

The athletic dept has not announced a price that I'm aware of.

If the price is higher, it is because they are looking for price equilibrium. They will push the price up for as long as demand is strong. It's economics and it's what they should do.

Duh. Welcome to Economics 101 Mr. Samuelson

If I remember correctly we share this with the conference.

Did you actually take Economics 101?

Yeah. When Paul Samuelson was a freshman.

How is there a demand if it is not a sellout. They want be standing in line for tickets.....you will have 30K seats available. I have seen it with the icegators when they had 11,800 in the dome (sell out).....got greedy and raised the price and lost fans....

Maybe people don't realize that bowl games are VERY VERY expensive! Tickets for the avg bowl game are over $100/seat. Yes, NOLA will likely raise the prices, maybe even this year, who knows, but college football ain't cheap.

You want to be a big boy...then be like the big boys.

I sat high up in the end zone of a Cotton Bowl game about 10 years ago, and paid $75 for it. That was the face value in the ticket.

Get used to it. We have to support this program if we want to be successful.

If they say the payout is a million dollars, you will have your answer.
