It is way too easy in this day and age to stay home, snuggle up to your favorite ADW and avoid the on track mess of parking, wagering lines and overpriced concessions.

I have no clue as to how the money (tickets, concessions and wagering) is split up amongst the entities involved, but one would think it would be smarter to have reasonable ticket prices in order to sell the place out and get the money through the windows.

For what it's worth..Looking at my old BC Tix..

'92 Gulfstream First Level Apron Box : $50.00
'99 Gulfstream: Grandstand :$95.00
'02 AP: Apron Box (equivelant to '92 GS) : $140.00
'03 SA: Res Grandstand ( equiv to '99 GS) $125.00
'04 LS: Upper Stretch Bleachers :$75.00
'06 CD Get me in the door tix $35.00
