    Like Browns 149 said, the option would be there anyway. I'm not sure what the advantage would be to the Browns to make sure you have to buy tickets for at least one game. Could always sell them, but it may be a tight time frame to do that in.

    Also, what would happen if the credit card didn't work, or was maxed out? Would they pull your season tickets for voiding the agreement?

    I have no idea on that. I surely don't think you'd lose your rights to your seats for a playoff game when you've been there all of those year without one.

  • Did you folks really expect to pay for all of those game experience upgrades all by himself?.. Not a chance.. And he still fielded an inferior team on the field.. Lmao!... Only in Cleveland...

    This may seem like a dumb question but wouldn't you want the playoff tickets?

    Yes but we have always had the option to not buy them, now we are forced to buy them

    Plus they are about 4 times the regular season price.

    And the Playoffs are around the holidays, so some people might not have the money

    Yeah I guess that would be tough. I would hope you wouldn't have any trouble unloading good playoff tickets to the first home Browns playoff game since Jesus walked on water.

    The only upgrade that I have really noticed was the new video board. I don't even know what other upgrades they have done

    It still takes forever to get into the building, the food and bev prices are still way to high, and the cell service is still awful.

  • 20 to 30 % increases especially with no prior in action is absurd. if this is all about paying for "phase one" improvements I say STOP PHASE TWO IMMEDIAYELY!! Those improvements aren't close to worth $500 a year to me. Shit I'm still feeling butt hurt from paying $3000 for my PSLs acfeecm ears back and them discontinuing PSLs a month later.

    LOL, read it and please STFU about Haslam finally raising his prices. After him & Lerner holding the line for years.

    The Browns had the cheapest seat average in the NFL. Even with a 20% increase, we're still living in slum city price wise. Care to Pay Jerrah $75 for in close parking? Care to pay double your ticket price to watch Da Bears suck?

    BTW 'Peen- the Giants and Patriots are on the high side of $450 for an average Club seat.

  • Cheap by NFL standards still. If ya'll can't afford it, get rid of them.

    I know. I was looking at your link on pricing. Says our cost for beer is $5. I'd like to know where that beer stand might be.

    It's a new day today. The news has worn off. It is what it is. Another $500. In the scheme of things, no big deal.

    Me too!

    I'm not sure what our tickets have increased yet. Haven't got any info yet. They were $45, then $50 after the 2007 year.

  • Well I just found out my friends tickets, that were $60 last year, are now $80. That's a 33% increase.

    Different areas went up by different percentages. Mine was 33% in Section 139.....60 to 80. Others were 20% increase. Not sure what the pattern is.

    To me what is the most disturbing is there was no advance notice about the impending increases. In the business I am in, as in most businesses, increases are sometimes a necessary reality. I however have never given an increase without an advance notice. There should have been some sort of courtesy letter along with an explanation at least 30 days prior to the renewal mailings. Hell I would like to know if they feel the increase covers both phases of improvements for example. All in all I will likely keep my PSL's and buy tickets but my voice will surely be heard.

    I think the pattern is the lower the price of the ticket, the higher the percentage. In the end, I think most everybody is going to pay $20-25 more per game.

    What good would advance notice have been? And for that matter, we just got advanced notice. You don't have to make a payment until March 1st.

    I think most people knew ticket prices were going up this year. We have some of the cheapest tickets in the NFL. We haven't seen a increase for 7 seasons. The team just spent millions on renovations.

    I wouldn't call this unexpected.

  • I wish I can see a game in Cleveland.

    I fully expected an increase. I sure the hell did not anticipate it being 30%. As far as the renovations perhaps they do not understand that for most fans the number one factor in the "fan experience" is the team performance. I know there are some of you who like the coming upgraded food etc but for me I could care less. When I want great food the wife and I hit a five star restaurant. When I am at a football game I could care less about gourmet food or local chefs. This may also be unpopular as a statement but I believe the PSL holders should have gotten a lighter increase than non PSL season ticket holders. All in all wtf you gonna do though.

    Would have been a nice gesture since they were already given extra money by the PSL holders.

  • Your PSL holds value. Maybe more now that the team isn't selling them anymore. Anybody wanting season tickets will have to look to PSL holders for decent seats. If not, they go to the back of the list as people want to upgrade every year.

    Yep, I paid $3000 for my seats, but that was 8 years ago. That money is long ago spent. It's to the point I don't really care if I make it back or not. I'd like to, but am not going to sweat it if i don't. I've enjoyed my seats long enough.

    I also don't care about the food. I haven't bought food there in years. I do have a beer or 2, but not at every game.

  • all I need is a seat and Im good.

    All the comfort shit and fancy scoreboard lights dont make it any better.

    And you folks bitchin about cell service need to sit somewhere far away from me. Nothing more annoying(and rude) than sitting at any event(movie, game,etc) and forcing people to listen to your bullshit conversation about yesterdays weather.

    At least turn the phone off till the games over. Mine is in the car.
