    • @nightcrawler2884
      @nightcrawler2884 8 лет назад +3

      Derrick Dietrich Yeah, I know. it simply doesn’t fit in with the business model for Mania anymore. WrestleMania 30 brought in nearly $11 million in ticket revenue with an attendance of 75,167 people. That’s an average ticket sale of $145. That same ticket average would bring in under $2.7 million in ticket revenue for a Mania at MSG these days. Not a bad number, and up from the $2.4 million that was grossed when WrestleMania 20 was held there, but still a huge step down. That would mean ticket prices would have to be astronomical to help make up for some of the losses, especially now that Mania doesn’t bring in one million homes ordering the show on pay-per-view.
      However, there is no denying the magic that MSG holds. It is one of the most famous arenas on the planet for a reason. Over the last few years, we’ve seen different reasons why WWE has basically been phasing MSG out of their plans. None of them really matter, though, because it’s a shame. There used to be multiple major events, whether they were television or pay-per-view, in the venue on a yearly basis. Now, there’s only the occasional house show.

    1 billion dollars?!? just for a makeover?! it would have been cheaper just to build a new arena from scratch based on the prices of most arenas, which cost about 500 million.
    i'm glad i'm not in new york. the sporting facilities there seem to be taking the passion out of their venues, and catoring to the super rich who only go to games for business outings or whatever. they did the same with yankee stadium by blocking off the first section so you can't even go down there pre-game to watch warm ups...something every kid loves doing at sports events.
    that place looks too corporate-like now, almost like you're walking into a big bank skyscraper and not a sports/music venue.
    the people closest to the action should be the ones standing and cheering and wearing old jerseys of their favorite players. not businessmen wearing suits tapping away on their blackberries for half the game caring more about closing a deal rather than who wins the game.

    • @rockerseven
      @rockerseven 10 лет назад

      quatar pignolio i can kind of understand that...except the MSG that's up right now is the 4th one. there were 3 others before it.
      and i somehow think that being a famous landmark doesn't matter since it's a sporting venue. look at all the historical venues (olympia stadium, chicago stadium, boston garden, etc.) that have been demolished since a new one opened.
      new york even replaced yankee stadium and demolished the old one.
