Here I go again.
People will fork over hundreds of dollars to attend a pro football game without complaining that the team raised the price of the tickets for the 8th straight year, now averaging over $147/ticket. They'll fork over hundreds of $ to attend a concert that only lasts a couple of hours.
But when Disney does it, all hell breaks loose? I think $100/ticket for the day-night long entertainment isn't all that expensive. There are endless entertainment/activities for everyone. Where else can you find, for $100, THAT quality level of entertainment?
@jax:
You're right, it's ALL going up and getting out of hand. Vacation activities are always one huge gouge. It's part of Americana! You do something for fun and to get away and you expect to get gouged, pay 5 bucks for a bottle of water and 12 bucks for a crappy hamburger. Is there a place for this? Yes, and we have all done it bc vacations are expensive but they are also suppose to be a treat, not an everyday occurance.
The sad part now is most people can't afford this stuff anymore. A family of four going to Disneyland will drop $400.00 just to get in and $600.00 to see a football game, not counting parking or food or any souvenirs, ot those giant delish pickles.
It's just sad bc people will go anyway and just charge everything and deal with the credit cards when they get
back bc well, everyone deserves a vacation.
It's pretty sad that prices are so exorbitant, that most people are strained to even go.
Eh, it's all greed. I always loved Disneyland, even now I'd go in a heart beat, but my common sense is holding a gun to my brain. 4951
