Thanks for the comment Paul. I would also not expect the Twins tickets to any cheaper in 2015. They also use dynamic pricing (per Wendy Thurm’s article) and considering there early season hot streak, and the promotion of top prospect Byron Buxton, I would expect the average price for tickets at Target Field to increase in 2015.

Thanks! That’s too bad though about Toronto, not having a good fan experience, was really looking forward to attending Blue Jays games when I move to Toronto.

A little part of me is in total disbelief while simultaneously not being surprised that Toronto is second in average ticket price… Have to be close to last in fan experience. Woeful food and beer selection.

Great article.

Very interesting. I am in Minneapolis and held season tickets for the last six years (last year of the dome and then all of the Target Field years.) Twins have not raised season ticket prices once, and have actually decreased the average price by over 15%, thanks to four 90-loss seasons in a row. Yet they still remain top 12 in highest price. What a shame they couldn’t put a winning product on the field. The $10 drop in average ticket price from ~$70 to ~$60 over the past four years equates to about $25-$30M a year in gate revenue – coincidentally, that is the same value of a marquis player or two very good ones.
