Re: “Kurtenbach: Chase Center first impressions — tremendous amenities, no soul” (Eastbaytimes.com, Oct. 5):
I recently visited Chase Center for a Warriors event and it’s truly a state-of-the-art building. However, the concessions were ridiculously overpriced. Water cost $5. Additionally, tickets to games in the new arena are significantly increased from the prices at Oracle.
With all the recent success, the Warriors are pricing out their real fans. The players even recognize the difference between the diehards and the phonies because the crowd energy and cheering isn’t as loud.
