[CBFF] Bears not raising ticket prices for 2009 season :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Bears - Sent using Google Toolbar

[Matt Langschwager]

This is a rough estimate, but I'd say there's about 8500 Club seats at SF, versus 61,500 total seats.

So, about 14% of the seats are Club seats (only the 200 level and 300 level on the east side of SF).  Of course, the percentage of PSL seats is WAY higher...

The Bears also will allow fans for the first time to pay for season tickets
by credit card and have initiated a way for them to manage their accounts
online.This is interesting. I did find it odd that people couldn't pay their tickets with a CC. 
 

The Bears are the first of the major professional teams in town to announce
a hold on ticket prices. The Cubs announced in December that they were
raising prices for their most expensive seats by as much as 33 percent and
will add a fourth category of ticket pricing for all seats for 14 of the
team's most sought-after games, including the White Sox series.There are so many price levels for baseball ticket nowadays it's bewildering. I see the Cubs have finally seized on the "premium" seat pricing that many other teams have gone to when opening new stadiums. There's nothing like rankling your most loyal season ticket holders by upping their costs exponentially.

 

Non-club seats for Bears games will continue to range from $68 to $108 and
club seats will cost between $245 and $350.Does anyone happen to know the percentage of clubs seats versus non-clubs? Just curious.
