I was fascinated because Madison Square Garden, besides spying on their fans, decided to do something different to help the fans.

In theory, help the fans.

And that is not allow people to sell tickets on the resale market on Ticketmaster until 24 hours before tip off.

Okay.

And I was curious to see what the results would look like.

Like, does it bring the prices down?

Because the intention, or at least their stated intention, is very noble, which is we're trying to keep the tickets out of the hands of ticket brokers, and we want to get the tickets to you. Now, keep in mind, Nick tickets are going to be expensive. So I'm not telling you this is cheap. I'm wondering, is it down from what it would have been? Okay. So what I noticed on Saturday night was that a lot of tickets were still being listed right before tip-off,

but it felt like a lot of people refused to lower their ticket prices to get rid of them.

Got stubborn.

So when the game started, it felt like half the arena was available on Ticketmaster.

I look right now on a Monday night, and the get-in price is $292, about $3.15, $3.30 if you move up a couple of pegs. It's still a lot of money for a lot of people. It's a ton of money. It feels, and you tell me, Rami, because you've been looking at this too, it feels slightly down from what it would have been. That's how I would view it. It is because if you think about what the, like the lowest prices were $2.30 something, that or $2.20 something coming from the team itself. So when you consider the markup that usually there is for the secondary market, I think this is down from where it was. And to your point, I think it's going to get lower because I think a lot of people ate their tickets on Saturday.

I think there were...

Instead of chicken fingers?

Me...

Just let it go.

Just let there be silence so he understands that, you know, sometimes he's not that funny.

Do you want to finish your point or do you want to let Sean make another dumb ass stroke?

The way he's staring at me right now. Just continue! What garbage? I'm just kidding. The point is that I think that people didn't sell them and took the loss because they were so stubborn on getting the price that they thought they were going to get on the resale market. And now people are like, oh wait, we're not willing to do that. to do that. We're willing to take a loss of maybe $20, $30 or only make $20.30 and then the, thus the tickets are going to be lower.

It is better when you drop a lot of money as a season ticket holder and you're not going to go to the game for whatever reason.

You can't go, whatever. You're better off getting something back than just eating them. Because that money is still money.

It counts.

It's better than nothing.
