Yikes!!! $23.76 for a Royals ticket?? That's up 14.9% from last year's average of $20.67. Before you poop a brick, realize that Kansas City ranks as the 27th cheapest place to watch a ballgame. Even parking is below the national average. We should consider ourselves lucky that we're not Red Sox fans living in Boston. Have you checked out their ticket prices lately? Ouch!!!Image reference:

I think we in Kansas City tend to have a distorted idea of what things cost in other cities. I hear people complain about $3 gallon gas, $5 parking downtown, $20 baseball ticket prices, when all of those are tremendous deals compared to what other cities pay.
I think any KC fan would trade the money for the 2 world series titles the Red Sox currently have. It is a joke how much money these small market teams have and yet they only spend the "free" revenue sharing money from MLB.

yeah, i can't really argue with you there about trading money for world series titles...
