      It has never once occurred to me that any mayor would pay to attend a sporting event in their own city.

      Like in my head, it seems like making public appearances at sporting events is part of the mayor’s job.

        Right? When I was in highschool, the mayor would always come by, at least once a week, and have lunch in the cafeteria with us.

        Later it turned out he was a huge pedophile, but having lunch with the students was nice.

      my guess would be someone invited him there and he didn’t really have to take out his wallet

        Possible, but if they did they would get the cheapest tickets?

          you think they would invite mayor of the city (or any other vip) and then give them the cheapest seat available?

            That’s my point.

            The excrement on xitter from NY Post says he has $700 ticket to the game. The link I posted says the cheapest ticket to that game was $740.

              oh. well that makes sense, i wasn’t sure what to look for in that article, since i have no fucking idea about [whatever the game is being discussed] and pricing of the tickets…
