I guess my way of thinking is different. I don,t make a lot of money and being a STH is my main luxury and I think this is a special event. I have been following the team since the early 70,s and try to make at least one road trip a year in addition to all the games I go to at MSG. I lay out $14,500 for my seasons so when an event like this was announced I jumped at the tickets
I can see both sides of the argument but I am not considering this just a regular season road game but an "Event" that is why I am excited about going.
