The sports bubble will never burst if it was going to it would have been right after covid if people had taken a stand and said **** this when we were allowed back in stadiums again when the prices were so high something may have changed. Instead everyone was locked up for so long and without their fix people were willing to pay over the odds to attend an event.
Look at the Saudis in football (soccer) they are throwing disgusting amounts of money at clubs for players and the wages they are paying even the premier league can’t come close to there are clauses in their contracts where the government turn a blind eye to alcohol and will do anything to raise their profile in the game.
In England prices to attend are expensive but nowhere near as bad as the states I’ve paid 1000 dollars for me and my wife to go to the colts and Vikings games in December, that 1000 dollars in England would be nearly enough for a home and away season ticket to watch my team Leeds for 46 games this season.
Speaking of Leeds we have just been taken over by the investment branch of the 49ers which feels very weird for me
we are the second or third biggest city in England have a massive fan base and rich history, our trouble is we have been run by charlatans for the best part of 25 years now even in the 2nd division a club of our size makes 100s of millions in revenue think of a Snyder situation at Washington and it’s basically the same.
The ticket market in the states doesn’t help either if you are caught trying to resell your tickets for profit over here you are automatically banned the clubs run their ticket operation in house, the inflated prices and fees over there are a joke and Rob the working man.
No man should be paid 279 million for playing a sport but in the world we are in and the money sport generates in a few years it’s going to seem like a bargain. Any hope of a bubble bursting is just fantasy talk I’m afraid.
