Baseball tickets are affordable. That's why we like them. An NFL ticket costs a week salary for most people

[@bowlchamps37]

Pretty bad comparison because an NFL game (even if it´s just as long) has a lot more value. Unless you go to a rival game, there are a lot of MLB games which do not really matter. And the average NFL ticket price last season was $110. Not sure if this is the money you earn a week. Also in MLB, only 66% of the seats are sold, compared to 96,95 and 94% for NFL, NHL and NBA. So ticket prices are certainly not the reason.

@@jacksonhamm872 because thats his point........you not there FOR HE GAME.....your there just to waste time and fuck off (which you can do at home). normal nfl tickes dor me is 60-120 bucks thats not a weeks salary, and going to game you have to pay for parkeing too so who cares if its cheap.... going to a game with no weight behind it is pointless...tickets are cheap because if they didnt sell them so cheap no one woudl go.... EVERYONE wants to go to nfl nba nhl games.....its why they are more expensive. do we really need to explained "supply and demand" every fucking time it comes up? this video is proof enough that THEY ARE NOT THAT FOR THE GAME...........

[@Chezzplayzz]

@@bowlchamps37 probably 110$ average but with Ticketmaster, the fees will make that 200$ a ticket, and most people don't go by themselves. So they might be spending 400$ plus, which is most likely a week pay for low income people who would enjoy going to an NFL game with there kid. but you are right, its not the main reason why

[@kaczynski5660]

Baseball has a history and culture that surrounds a family or solo outing to a baseball game for a good time, food, and an All-American experience. Most other sports have a culture that surrounds watching the game from home, like how families always have the football game on at home during a holiday or when dad is slumped on the couch watching the hockey game. Stadium culture derives entirely from baseball because it was truly one of the first sports in the United States that had people rallying in the thousands to watch the game be played.

[@jefeseason4990]

Nothing is all American about baseball none of the best players are from America… it’s just a sport that whites like.

[@royshavrick]

Recently went to Baltimore, I literally don't follow baseball whatsoever, went to an Orioles game with my siblings, and the whole experience was so incredibly seamless. You get your ticket, you walk around, get some food, sit, and watch the game. And you've had a solid experience even if the baseball isn't the most riveting thing in the world. It's relaxing.

[@nickgamble280]

[@2hot2handle65]

But you could've had that "solid experience" with so many other activities, so it's not the baseball. I have so tried so hard trying to enjoy baseball -- and at this point I just give up. It so, so painfully boring. I do not believe anyone would enjoy watching baseball unless they grew up watching it.

[@sea4our]

@@2hot2handle65 you know what it boils down to? You don’t understand what’s happening in the slightest bit, and therefore think it’s boring. The actual rules aren’t being relayed to a casual fan like yourself, and you therefore don’t understand why the pitcher has thrown the ball 12 times to first base. As a result, we get shitty rules that ruin the game for those of us who actually played the game that limit how many times you can throw to first . It goes way beyond “guy throw ball as hard as he can, guy tries to hit it as hard as he can” 😂

[@ScottCleve33]

Baseball not only has twice as many games as basketball and hockey but the stadiums also have two to three times the capacity as basketball and hockey. Football stadiums generally have a larger capacity than baseball stadiums but they also play approximately 1/10 of the games as baseball does.

[@rustysqueezebox7750]

Pretty much. What kind of dumb video is this?

[@markula_4040]

They also have a 3 month window to themselves during the summer where kids are out of school too. Football, basketball and hockey overlap with each other and some of baseball so at no point are they the only sport going on and their entire seasons take place during the school year.

[@orclover2353]

Begs the question. Why aren't NFL stadiums larger? Why don't they play in the summer, play indoors...shorten games, play more of them. An NFL game is 3-4 hours of violence. Shorten it to 2 hours and play 30 games. Play through March? Due to salary cap structures there isn't a reason for NBA and NFL owners to expand they can control player pay and therefore their own profits.

[@ScottCleve33]

​@@orclover2353 I'm not sure what you're asking here. NFL stadiums are among the largest stadiums and are usually larger than both baseball and basketball. Why don't they play in the summer or indoors? Well traditionally football has always been in the late summer and fall. This is beneficial for a few reasons. a) it doesn't compete directly with baseball and b) with the type of gear they wear the dead of summer would be too hot to play It's best to be played in the cooler weather. Why is it not played indoors? Many teams do play indoors but many fans also love it being played outside in the elements. Unlike baseball, which is difficult to play in rainy weather, football is often enhanced by rain, wind or snow. It makes the game more interesting. Unlike baseball I've never heard anyone complain about the length of a football game before. There's generally plenty of action and keeps the fans engaged. Most fans find that the games pass pretty quickly. Playing in March? That's a bit unrealistic unless they do all play indoors because of the harsh winter weather. Football season ends just as the sever weather begins. There still are the once in a while games played in blizzards and in single digit or negative temperature weather but it's still rare. Playing through February would make those games more common. I'm also not sure what your final statement was regarding expansion.

[@orclover2353]

@@ScottCleve33 The argument was how they could compete with baseball in ticket revenue, NFL stadiums are often half or 2/3 the size of major college stadiums... football games are long but too violent to expand the season so making them shorter would allow for more games and revenue. People seem offended that the NFL and NBA aren't making as much money from tickets as MLB so I was basically saying that they have decided not to innovate to make more money. And because of the cap it doesn't really hurt the owners too much because they can control player salaries.

[@alexmartinez5859]

13:34 Fun fact: when my Dad caught the only ball he’s ever caught at a Cubs game at Great American Ballpark (Cubbies were playing the Reds some time back in the late ‘00s and the ball was a foul off a Reds player), some guy leaped two rows over to try and catch the ball Dad caught, spilling beer all over my, then toddler, youngest sister. Guy then tried to convince Dad to give him the ball, to which Dad said something along the lines of, “You just spilled beer over my daughter trying to catch this. Good luck.”

I didn't go to ball games much as a kid, but now that I live 30 minutes from the Phillies stadium, we go at least a few times a month and bring many friends! It's always a great time. Watching the games are also easier with the pitch clock making them about 2.5 hours.

[@WillConley]

Ugh, I hate the pitch clock. But good point about shorter games.

[@guyrosteelers]

I saw a graph with ticket sales for all the major sports leagues and was kind of stunned. Then I remembered that the MLB plays 162 regular season games. Let me just say that I loved the video. This wasn’t supposed to be a hate comment

[@Klako-ls6yt]

MLB stadiums are also much bigger than NBA and NHL arenas. The Dodgers can sell more tickets in 14 home games (56,000 capacity stadium) than the Lakers could in all of their 41 home games per year (roughly 19,000 capacity arena).

[@zachlee7945]

@R C literally a pointless video lmao that anyone with any intellect woulda answered in their head 30 seconds in

[@lucastudor5536]

It has nothing to do with the 162 games. It's based on average per game. Not total for the whole season. Of course they would have the most. They are only second to the NFL, of course, when you average per game. You all should watch the video before you leave comments.

[@prismatic3695]

@@lucastudor5536 Haven't watched the vid yet but iirc, baseball tickets tend to be cheaper than for other sporting events as well

[@Crunkboy415]

@@lucastudor5536 But read the title again. A sport can have a two game season , sell out both games in a 60000 seat stadium and have a bigger average per game. Average per game doesn't mean anything either. It's a combination of the number of games, lower ticket prices, time availability, and time of year. You can see a baseball game at a home stand up to five days a week, and more people, especially youngsters, have a lot of free time during the summer.

Last year I got a lot of my friends who really dont know anything about baseball to watch a Jays vs Twins game. I got about 11 people and we sat on the 5th deck of rogers centre, and it was a blast! Firstly the game was actually exciting and even though we lost, there were lots of homers and Jays almost made a comeback, it was exciting and a few of my friends (who originally came because they didnt have anything else to do) really wanted to watch another game if we had the chance. I think its because the game is slower paced and I had a lot of chances to explain what was happening and we had a lot of time to talk. The crowd was also made it fun with all the chants and boos. The last reason was definitely because of the back-and-forth action. I do think that MLB has the potential to get a even higher attendance if there were cheerleaders like they do in Taiwan (where im from), Korea and Japan. Also if MLB stops making changes to the game it can let people understand easier. Blackouts and other restriction that makes it harder to watch games should go as well so people dont need to pay a lot of money to watch games and make it easier to watch games. That way people who are just introduced can get more of the action.

We got our tickets on Seat Geek for about $40 and after parking, food, drinks and a pen so I could use the scorecard in the free program, the whole night cost us under $125 total. The Twins also won, meaning my kid due in December is going to be a twins fan as we had a bet whoever won the game would get a new fan, so all in all, it worked out pretty well

I'm 58 and have been to hundreds of professional sporting events. I find Pro Football games as overly loud and often with drunken unruly fans and I prefer to watch the games on TV. Hockey games are great live and I like the break in between periods. However going to a Baseball game is such a better experience. It's peaceful and if you get there early you might have chance to interact with a player or two. Also most games there is plenty of room to sit rather than being squeezed in by other fans (Anyone that has ever been to a Packers game at Lambeau can relate). Basketball game are OK if you have great seats, but the games are to drawn out and really only the 4th quarter matters.

I love this topic because it outlines something else about baseball, this is why Baseball doesn't have a salary cap either and has a way different league structure than any other sport and why they CAN"T have a salary cap! Baseball is the only sport truly affected by regional markets, they're also the only sport to have 4 CSA's (Combined Statistical Area) to have 2 teams in them. NFL? only NYC, LA, and the DC-Baltimore CSA have 2 teams, Chicago only has the Bears NHL? NYC has 3 teams (NJ Devils are in the CSA), LA has 2, but Chicago only has 1 and Baltimore doesn't have a team, only DC (Capitals). NBA? NYC has 2 teams, LA has 2, Chicago has 1, but only DC has a team not Baltimore. Why is this? Why can't Baltimore have an NHL/NBA team? Why doesn't Chicago have 2 NFL/NHL/NBA teams? The answer has to do with the league structure. The NFL is what I like to call a Suburb sport, because of the league structure playing weekly instead of daily or semi-daily, fans from all across the country can travel to literally any team they desire to watch, with an average NFL stadium cap of ~65k, with 20 guaranteed games (3 preseason 17 regular) 10 at home, that's easily 600-820k fans per year if the stadium sells out every game. This is also why the can get away with a salary cap, if every team has similar attendance numbers, they can get away with a salary cap knowing not 1 team is dragging the league down, and they're all main events to watch for fans. Entire regions work best for NFL teams and markets, this is why Green Bay, Buffalo, and Jacksonville have teams, but not Milwaukee, Chicago (for a 2nd team), or some other market, the cities maybe small, but they represent a larger region that can still travel and support the team, Green Bay not only has Milwaukee, they have the entire state of WI to support them (and some Upper Michigan!) and considering they're owned by the city of GB and not a single owner, and GB is a small town, we also represent small town America and have one of the largest fanbases as a result! Buffalo basically has the rest of upstate NY to their disposal as well as parts of Canada, and I can't blame considering the alternative is NYC... NHL and NBA are what I call city sports, they can legit thrive off just the inner city population, the average cap arena is ~17.5k, and considering BOTH leagues play 82 games (41 home) (semi-daily) that's an average of over 700k fans per season, roughly the same as the NFL, hence how THEY can get away with a salary cap too! Because of this, it's why in the NHL they get away with 7 teams in Canada despite the country's population being less than California! The cities alone support the teams even without big suburbs or nearby rural towns! It's why Sacramento has an NBA team, the Hurricanes being based in the Research Triangle instead of Charlotte, they can all get away with it based on the size of the arenas they play in and the inner city populations. Baseball is the only league that relies on Combined Statistical Areas, it's why Baltimore and DC have teams because the CSA combines the 2 cities into 1 and it ranks 4th in the nation! It's why New Orleans, Charlotte, among other cities that have NFL/NHL/NBA teams don't have MLB teams, because while the city pop maybe big, or the region maybe big, the CSA which is still localized as close to the primary city as much as possible, may not necessarily be that big! Because they also play 81 home games per season in ballparks averaging ~42k capacity, that's over 3 million fans attending per season, meaning it's not just the inner city pop that has to attend games, it's the suburbs, rural towns, boroughs, districts, every part of any major city in America. Milwaukee maybe a decent market for the NBA, but we're the smallest in MLB! Chicago may only have 1 NFL team let alone NHL/NBA teams, but the city is so big and the CSA is so huge that they're able to support both the Cubs and White Sox, and because of their close proximity to Milwaukee, they call our ballpark Wrigley North (and they love it cuz we're cheaper than both the Cubs AND White Sox!). However, like I said, baseball is the only sport where markets matter, so why can't they do a salary cap? The answer? Attendance PERCENTAGES! Prior to Covid the Marlins were the worst team in attendance at averaging ~10% capacity PER GAME and not even touching ~300k people a year, and that was like 5 years in a row! Imagine that happening in the NFL/NHL/NBA? Teams would be immediately folding/moving due to lack of fans, and it would drag the leagues down reducing the salary cap because one of the teams couldn't make any money. The Yankees meanwhile, when they're winning, the league makes INSANE money, they're the baseball equivalent to Ric Flair, a big box office draw. The Yankees ALONE carry the league at times! Who cares if the Marlins don't make money? the Yankees make so much money it's why ESPN loves them so much! You institute a Salary Cap to baseball, you kill the sport right there. If the NFL/NHL/NBA average ~700k fans a season, what would it mean and take for baseball to do the achieve the same thing? It would mean the vast majority of the league would have to move to the top 4 CSA's and move into stadiums with 8.6k capacity just to achieve the same mark. If you combined the top 4 CSA's, it's ~60 MILLION people! You could have a baseball league have 85 teams averaging 700k fans a season! Which also means, you technically can move the ENTIRE MLB to the NYC CSA! It would KILL the league! THIS is why MLB can't afford a Salary Cap, THIS is why Baseball is structured the way it is, THIS is why the top 4 CSA's have 2 teams, THIS is why MLB stadiums are as big as they are, THIS is why games can be cheap vs Minor League parks now (I recall Timber Rattler games for Bleachers were more expensive than the Brewers!), THIS is why some markets affect teams more than others, THIS is why your baseball team may not be able to sign that superstar player you love!

In the first seasons the Blues Jays played (1977) the small stadium right on the lake only seated about 20,000. In order to get families to come to games the team let kids in for $1.00. But they sat in the football seats in centre field. The kids had a ball as they could around without bothering adults. It was great all around. On the subject of affordable games, my late Bride and I attended the first ever Blue Jays game April 1977. We were right off first base 10 rows up .. cost $8:35 per seat Canadian. The Jays played the White Sox who were owned by the veritable Bill Veeck. There was snow on the field pre game so they brought out a Zamboni to clear the snow. When it came time for the managers to present the lineup cards, Veeck had his catcher strap his leg pads to his feet and using two bats as poles, ski to home plate. Veeck had written two books on the game: The Hustlers Handbook and another. He was the owner of the St Louis Browns in the late 40s who sent a Midget up to bat as a promo stunt. Then there was Charlie O Findlay owner of the As who introduced an orange baseball snd who can forget Umpire Ron Luciano the nutty guy who drove players and managers, especially Oriel's Earl Weaver to distraction. He wrote a best seller entitled : The Umpire Strikes Back. Baseball games were an "event". Too bad it's got so sterile.

I want to thank you @Baseball Dosen’t Exist for the video. You nailed it in the head Baseball is going be continuing it’s popularity as the 2nd or 3rd most popular sport in USA 🇺🇸 for years to come. Like you said the affordability of MLB ⚾️ game compared to the NHL 🏒, NFL 🏈, & NBA 🏀 is a huge factor. It’s common for me and my family to go to 2-3 National’s games a year and on occasion a Orioles’ game, the reason largely related to the cost of tickets for the Nats being close to $10 for a afternoon game. The NBA’s Washington Wizards are the 2nd cheapest at around $20-$25, which same cost as a Commander’s Preseason Game and Capitals Hockey game in some case cost close to $88-$100 depending on the team.I will tell you from experience that when the Athletics move from Oakland to Las Vegas they are going to have for their first few seasons a a huge up tick of interest and honestly for them I would keep the Athletics name and have them be called Nevada Athletics as it sounds better then the Las Vegas Athletics. I honestly feel bad for the City of Oakland CA for losing both of their Pro-teams to Las Vegas with the Raiders leaving Oakland for Vegas back in 2019 and now the Athletics moving in 2027, unless Oakland tries something fast in order to keep them. This would be the Athletics 4th move in Franchise history where they like you pointed where founded as the Philadelphia Athletics back in 1901 then they moved from Philadelphia to Kansas City in 1955 where they became the Kansas City A’s until the move to Oakland in 1968. Like I said I know this from experience my Dad who is in his 70s grew up as a Washington Senators Fan as little kid back in the 1950s with the original Senators and in to the 1960s with the Expansion Senators. Dad has a team signed 1958 Washington Senators baseball with names of Hall of Famers Harmon Killebrew, Camilo Pascual & Jim Lemon who is in the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame. He got the ball from the players themselves as this was before players had multimillion dollar contracts as my Grandmother was working part time at a famous pizza place in Adelphi Maryland near Washington DC and Senators players Killebrew & Lemon would go there after practice and games for a drink at the bar. One day Jim asked my Grandma if she had a little boy as my Dad as a kid would on occasion stop by the restaurant while she was working, she said yes and the following day she was given the baseball ⚾️ that she then gave to my dad. When it was announced that the Expos where moving to Washington DC as the Nationals my Dad was super excited 😆 and went to one of their games against the Astros at RFK as Nationals Park wouldn’t be open until 2008.

Baseball stadiums are huge with many affordable tickets. Not as good as it used to be. When I was a kid me my dad and brother could go 7 dollar tickets for upper level seats in the outfield with a great view of the game. Get 1-2 dollar hot dogs and some big cheap bags of roasted peanuts from vendors outside. with 1-2 dollar drinks probably 10 dollars a person for a good bit of food. and maybe get some cotton candy or dipn dots inside for 5 bucks each so 3 people could go see games and eat. for maybe 60-70 dollars .
