‘Get away with it’: Fans up in arms after Messi mania sparks ‘crazy’ ticket price hike
Fans of Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami are up in arms after the Major League Soccer club doubled season ticket prices for next season, but the chance to watch the World Cup winner will still tempt many into forking out the cash.
The cheapest season ticket to watch European and Premier League champions Manchester City is $469 with the most expensive costing $1,256 although hospitality deals are separate from season tickets. Indeed, some have cashed in by selling their season ticket access to individual games on the secondary ticket market for significant mark-ups.
“It’s crazy. I expected them to go up, but maximum 50%. These guys are just thinking about making money and there is a lot of demand so they think they will get away with it,” he told AFP. The $350 million stadium will be part of a reported $1 billion retail, entertainment, office and hotel development.
Jeffrey Skatoff of Palm Beach Gardens, who spent over $20,000 on seven season tickets for family and friends, said the renewal price he was quoted saw the total rise to $53,550.
