According to a Team Marketing Report survey on
ValuePenguin.com,
it costs nearly $300 for a family of four to attend one Red Sox game—including three tickets and all the extras (parking, a soda, two beers and three hot dogs).
That's the costliest outing in all of MLB. Moreover, it takes that family an average of 6.5 hours of work to pay for the extravagance of heading to Fenway Park for
one single game. That's the third highest number of work hours—behind only
The Evil Ones and the Cubbies. By comparison, a family in Oakland needs to work only 3.2 hours to take in an A's game at the plush, but not overly ostentatious Coliseum. Interesting, isn't it, that
John Henry's MLB investment is now worth $2.7 billion, but his fanbase is still being soaked? Nice.
