Agreed. Especially that week four dog* where we always play Indy. They have a hell of a nerve charging full price for that.
*My apologies to dogs everywhere for the comparison.

It gave people and kids a chance to go cheap because there was no way I can go when I have to get up early and drive 100 miles north to get home. Actually, most of the time I gave them away, and sometimes that was hard to do. Plus, it's tough to find a DD on a Thursday night.
That's what I don't get: opting for Thursdays nights. I get that every team plays the last game on that Thursday before Labor Day, so there's no getting out of that. But why would you do it otherwise? That August 22 game is a good example. The Reds aren't at home after Wednesday, August 21, so Friday night and Saturday night are wide open. But, they go with Thursday night. Bet that will cut the attendance by a good 25%, and the concessions revenue along with it.
