This is true here, too, Stuart. I am not a football fan (but I am a baseball fan) however, as I understand it, the cost for going to a football game is higher than going to the theater.<P>And last I checked, there is a box office downtown, San Diego, that if one buys the theater tickets on the day of the performance the tickets are heavily discounted - at least 50%. <P>It is also possible to park for the theaters here free of charge - but that is virtually impossible at the stadium. <P>The city is in the process of building a new stadium for baseball (we already have one that is shared for football and works just fine) but the city has run out of money. Anyway, in the new stadium it is planned to have LESS seats and the fear is that with less people, the tickets will cost even more for baseball and therefore fewer people will have access to seeing a live game.
