I am an Argos season ticket holder and decided to not bother with the tickets.
$140/game to sit in the end zone on the 500 level or $300/game to sit 100 level near the goal-line isn't exactly what I had in mind when I heard they would be playing in TO.
Add in the fact one has to buy 3 or 8 games worth and for a pair of tickets you're looking at anywhere from $800 to $4800 for the privilege. That is more than I pay for an entire season of Argos, 2 seats, 100 level, 40 yard line.
Considering I know someone who runs a "Bill's Bus" that gives you a ticket, ride to the stadium and all you can eat/drink tailgate for around $175 - the Argo's option isn't competitive at all.

$160 to sit up in the 500 level!?!?!? That's insane.
Sad thing is, people in Toronto are gonna bend over and take it, probably many of the same who go to Leafs games.
It's not really bending over and taking it...
It's all about the demand for the tickets. There are people willing and ABLE to pay that kind of money. So why not mark up the price to bring in extra profits.
If you were in the same situation, wouldn't you do the same thing?

Considering its costing Rogers $78 million to bring the Bills to Toronto for the 8 games I think we should expect higher then average ticket prices.
With an average ticket price of around $200.00 its well over the average NFL ticket. If there are approximately 50,000 seats then Rogers is basically breaking even on ticket sales.
