Will high ticket prices eventually destroy professional sports?

Fans are paying so much at the stadiums now. Just look at what Jerry Jones is charging now.
What’s gonna give? It costs me a ton of money to see a DETROIT LIONS game, and I have to pay $30-40 for parking in DOWNTOWN DETROIT! You are lucky to get $10-15 parking!
These guys want the big contracts, but when will fans finally give up? When the credit card industry crashes and people can’t blow the “free money” anymore? I still see people in the movie theater and at the concession stands buying the $15 popcorn and drinks and $10 hamburger and fries deals.
Huge conglomerates and corporations are parasites. They will stop at nothing until they suck their host dry. It is actually the problem with the whole country. Everyone wants to make more and more money. What most people fail to realize is, there is only so much money in existence. You are not “making” money. You are merely taking it from someone else. The Oil Companies, the Banking Industry, and Wall Street will ultimately be the end of the American Economy as we know it. If kept in check, these industries are integral to a healthy financial system. If allowed to run unchecked, they will devastate it, as evidenced by the current state of affairs. It all boils down to greed, man. The NFL is just as greedy as anyone. I understand that the NFL is a business and all businesses want to make money and be successful. But, it shouldn’t come at the financial devastation of the consumers. They will eventually drive the prices so high that no one but the excessively rich will be able to afford to attend. I know that I damn sure can’t afford to attend a pro game at this point. The Players are making nearly 50% of the NFL’s total revenue. That is just ridiculous. They make way too much money by charging us way too much money to be fans.
Sorry so long but, that’s my take.
