    As crazy as it may sound Heat owner Micky Arison says he is still not making an adequate profit on the team. Even with the record numbers in ticket & merchandise sales the franchise will still claim a loss at the end of the year!

    I am a season ticket holder and currently pay $9 per game.(300 level) I would hate to see prices go up, but I understand that Micky Arison has given alot for this franchise and even though he's a billionaire he deserves to run a profitable team. I just hope the prices don't go up too high [​IMG]

    League average = $45.28.
    Heat 04-05 = $46.25

    Check the link. Very interesting article.

    I don't even live near Miami... so done'st really bother me [​IMG].

    I live near Toronto, and I knwo they raised their ticket prices this year. Not sure if it's affected sales, but our team is playing horrible. Not sure if the raised tickets would help, especailly when T.Dot is doing so bad.
