Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 4708713, member: 153"] One thing I'll say about UConn football's potential appeal to fans is that the last 20 yrs have seen a huge rise in entertainment expenses, from going to the movie theater to restaurants to music. I've got a crying teenager who missed out on Taylor Swift (we could afford it, but we couldnt justify it, it's ridiculous). My point is that UConn is at the same pricepoint one sees for minor league baseball, major league lacrosse, the type of things people pay for locally in my region. I went to a restaurant this weekend that I hadn't visited in 3 years. Used to be jam packed. We were the only ones there at 7 pm on a Saturday night. Food was still really good. We exited the restaurant and the ice cream place next door was jampacked with people sitting out at tables, a line out the door. [/QUOTE]
