I was offered a 1/4 season, two tickets in the 100 level. Sounds good right? The only problem is the price, $125 a ticket, that's $250 for the game. After drinks and some food I have to take out a home equity loan, and I thought gas prices were high.</p> <p>I'm told that the Blackhawks are one of the cheaper tickets in hockey. Can you believe this ticket gouging!?! </p> <p>Overall ticket prices seem to be skyrocketing, but people are still paying. And when the tickets sell out people to go to Stubhub.com or Ebay where the prices are even higher I guess there's no way around it, I just needed to vent. </p> http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/topic/support#post-10 Wed, 26 Mar 2008 19:25:31 +0000 admin 10@http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/ <p>Let us know if there is any problems or if you are having trouble with the website. </p> http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/topic/gravatar-support#post-29 Tue, 01 Apr 2008 23:15:33 +0000 admin 29@http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/ <p>**We now support <a href="http://gravatar.com/" title="gravatar">Gravatar's</a> sign up and get your picture next to your posts** </p> http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/topic/welcome#post-8 Tue, 18 Mar 2008 21:30:19 +0000 admin 8@http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/ <p>Welcome to the forum! </p> http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/topic/baseball-bets#post-16 Mon, 31 Mar 2008 14:19:57 +0000 FatPat 16@http://forum.chicagosportstalk.com/ <p>Lets hear the bets everyone has going this season. Here's what I have so far...</p> <p>1. 12 tall boys of Miller Lite says that the Sox will have a better record than the Cubs.<br /> 2. A cub fan at work is buying me lunch when Sweet Lou gets tossed before Ozzie.<br /> 3. Same cub fan will be buying me lunch at the all star break and season end for the Sox boasting a better record. </p>
