Message: [QUOTE="Redmen9194, post: 4844056, member: 9969"] I believe the lease fee is around 430k per game and the Garden takes 20% of ticket sales. SJU does not get concessions either. Obviously at CA all revenue and concessions go directly to the school like Gampel and SJU has now started selling alcohol at on campus games so revenue likely increases slightly with that. But CA holds around 5600 and ticket prices are obviously less than at the Garden. For example, for the Marquette game the cheapest ticket right now is around $83.00 (not talking about secondary market). It's hard to gauge what the profit to the school would be because the lower bowl tickets go for around $150 dollars and the court level seats go for several hundred so that effects the profit margin greatly. The school would have taken in several hundred thousands in profit last night so it does make sense even with 2/3 capacity. And that is not counting the donation required for season ticket holders.
