Tiger no fan of Yankee Stadium ticket prices
by FOXSports.com
Asked about price-setting policy at this week's AT&T National tournament, for which he serves as host, Woods chose Yankee Stadium as Exhibit A in "What NOT to do" when putting on a family-friendly sports event.
"We don't want to have what happened at Yankee Stadium," Woods said Friday. "Tickets are so overpriced that you can't bring the family. We want to have everyone come out and enjoy being in a family atmosphere, walk around, have a good time and not have it cost an arm and a leg."
This week at Congressional Country Club, children 12 and younger who accompany a paid adult are admitted free. Tickets for 13- to 17-year-olds are $10. Tickets for a weekend day are $40 at the gate. With free parking, four hot dogs and four drinks, a family of four can attend for $116-$142.
At Yankee Stadium, according to Team Marketing Report, the cost for a family of four to attend a game and buy food, drinks, programs and caps is $410.88.
