John Fox and Ryan Pace have promised a big improvement in 2017. But first the Bears would like fans to put their money where the coach's and general manager's mouths are.
After a 3-13 debacle, the Bears announced they have increased season ticket prices for the 2017 season by an average of 2.6 percent. It’s a 2 percent raise for the club seats and 2.9 percent for the rest of Soldier Field.
It’s not unheard of to raise ticket prices after a losing season, it’s not even unusual. But it still takes a certain level of chutzpah to raise prices after the worst Bears season since 1969.
