But yes Angus, if it costs you 100+ bucks to get you and a buddy through the gate, I'm guessing it's mostly upper class folk going to games. If I was a New Yorker I'd probably be a Mets fan just because I'm a cheap ass.
That would be the case if it cost a hundred dollars, but it actually does not. For example, you can get a nosebleed seat for 12 dollars at Fenway, and with certain cans of Coca-Cola on certain nights you can get it for 6 dollars. At Yankee Stadium, I remember when you could get one for about 8 dollars. It would be interesting if we had a "cheapest seats by stadium" chart to go along with the average seat chart. My guess is that for some games you can still find a 15-dollar bleacher seat at NY.
I did notice that currently there are no cheap seats left at Yankee stadium. The cheapest seat available for tomorrow's game against the Astros is around 54 dollars. There are 21 still available at that price. At the other end of the scale, there are still two Legends 24A seats available at $1479.00 each.
