For the playoffs, we've gone to one game each series. But, I buy seats from the team rather than the resale market, which gets expensive. For the Denver series, we went to game 7 and tickets up in the 300s in the corner were about $150 each. For Minnesota, we went to game 5 and the same seats were $200 each. So, yesterday I logged into Ticketmaster when Finals tickets went on sale. Holy moly. Upper-level nosebleed seats directly behind the baskets were going for $600-$700 each from the team and $800 and up on resale. For chuckles I looked at floor level seats. All that was available was resale and some were going for as much as $11,000 each. I told my wife we got free seats in the Living Room section.

My god. It does seem people in Indiana are getting gouged slightly worse. For additional context: $650 is what I pay per seat for my entire Colts season ticket.
The NBA -- it's FANtastic!
