Honestly - the ticket costs are the less important factor for me. I have considered the costs of all of Nathan’s (likely) competitions this season and if I could possibly attend.
Skate America - I think the best all-event tickets are $250. There are also silver level tickets which seem pretty good for $175. These prices do not seem unreasonable to me. But I would have to fly to Seattle, and pay for hotel for like 3 nights. The travel expenses are considerably more than the tickets.
4CC - I would like to attend this competition - though I am not sure if Nathan will be competing here. Travel expenses would be fairly low for me to attend - and a difference of +/- $50 or $100 for a ticket wouldn’t change whether I would attend.
So the main factor for me are travel expenses and also whether I am able to travel at that time. Even if ticket prices were lowered by $100 - it wouldn’t really change whether or not I would attend.
