We've discussed a lot of different aspects of the CalgaryNEXT development around these parts lately, and today I want to discuss something that's been bothering me a little bit.
The Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation are asking for a fair amount of public money to build their arena. To actually get into the building to watch professional sporting event in the new building, such as a Calgary Flames game, people will have to pay again through buying a ticket.
Scarcity economics is what's bothering me in regards to event costs.
Right now, the Scotiabank Saddledome seats roughly 19,289 paying customers.
