When they built the arena they priced out the loyal locals who had season tickets for decades, and a lot of folks won't go back.


They priced out the Mizzou employees, too, when they increased donation requirements in the mid 90s. Dad had a pair of tickets until then.

Daughter just got home and asked her why her and her friends don't go to the games. Her answer "It's like a $100 night to go to the game."

That's a lot of coin for a kid. Between the tickets, the drinking that college students are going to do. Any food. Whatever. Their limited funds simply get them further without going to the games. Interestingly, she said nothing about how bad the team is. Impression is she would go outside of the cost factor.
