After blaming the weather and a poor 2009 season on their poor ticket sales last year, the Mets acknowledged Wednesday that their prices were too damn high.It the pro-sports bubble here?
The combination of a lack of success on the field and exorbitant prices led to attendance dropping 18 percent at Citi Field in its second year of existence.
The Mets responded to that by lowering the cost of most tickets in the stadium -- at an average of 14 percent -- for the 2011 season, including an additional 10 percent discount to season ticket holders and most group ticket sales.
