Another huge discrepancy I noticed during the playoff last year: tickets cost WAY MORE in Dallas than in San Antonio because of supply-and-demand. Around $300 dollars would get you upper level seats, and anything in the lower-level would run $900+/ticket in Dallas. On the other hand, Game 7 lower-level seats in San Antonio runs around $500+/ticket.
Yes, I was tempted to drive to San Antonio for Game 7....
On the other hand, Dallas Cowboys is a way bigger cash cow in Dallas than the Mavs...
