Quote from: The RancorMy point wasn't the blovating, it was that you're the living embodiment of the type of prick that goes to Cornell for 4 years and spends a lifetime looking down their nose at the very people that provided your education. Prices be damned, we all know the economy sucks. What people do with their entertainment dollars is no matter to you. $400 is the price of a TV or a couple of video games. Locals certainly can't be expected to afford such luxuries. Who do they think they are, the Kennedys?
This is a completely asinine post. You're calling me "the living embodiment of the type of prick that goes to Cornell for 4 years and spends a lifetime looking down their nose at the very people that provided your education" all because I said "$400 is a lot for most locals." You know absolutely nothing about my beliefs or how I view people. You're inferring all of this from a single forum post about $400 being a lot of money. Hey, buddy, guess what? $400 would be a lot of money for me and most of the people I know. So it's a quite rich of you to impute snobbery  here. You then launched into more nonsense about me judging people for spending their money a particular way when I said nothing of the sort nor have ever judged anybody for doing so.

I don't know if you're projecting or some rich Cornell kids wronged you at some point but you truly have no idea what you're talking about and, to hazard a guess, you never would have made this accusation against anyone else on the forum if they said the same thing. You don't like my other posts so you're using a benign comment to launch into an attack on my character. To be frank, it's extremely fucking stupid I even have to respond to this trash.

i think you should both shut the fuck up and stop finding reasons to yell at each other. 80% of the notifications i get from this fucking forum that there's something new is a lie.

For a lot of people, it's just a big time commitment. I have plenty of friends in Ithaca who are happy to go to a handful of games a season and keep track of how the team is doing, but they just have other things going on that don't make season tickets practical. It's too bad there aren't more opportunities for the men to play on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon -- that might give an attendance boost to some of the nonconference games.

Season tix are $209 for students. But yeah - it's a hassle to get to/from Lynah for games, especially with TCAT. Plus I can just pirate the games for free, if I wanted to, or catch them on ESPN. Especially post-pandemic, people just don't go out anymore. Younger people don't go out nearly as much as a generation ago. And season tickets effectively lock your plans in for months in advance, so unless you're Faithful enough to know you'll be there...

Harvard just released the remaining tickets for Lynah East this morning. Apparently, they weren't able to sell out the rink forcing fans to buy tickets to other games as well. Tickets are $50 a pop! Harvard has to make up the federal funding it lost.

It doesn't seem as if single ticket games at Princeton are on sale yet, unless I'm totally missing something

Isn't Princeton super weird, like they go from 0% sold to 100% sold but then you show up for a "sell out" and the building is 60% empty?

Yes. They are in theory "sold out" to season ticket holders, then you show up on the day of the game and they have a few hundred seats to sell because of "no-shows".

I'm mostly comparing today's crowds to the recent height of Lynah atmosphere, the early-to-mid-2000s

Ah '01-05 undergrad, didnt know how good we really had it...

Their ticket office really can't hide the flat-out extortion for this game at this point. Capitalism at its finest.

F4s will do that.

Our other Lynah Golden Ages were 66-73 and 79-81.  It's not an accident.

If you win it, they will come.

Individual tickets go on sale Monday and a lot of Cornell groups have already bought ticket blocks
