OLDTIMER, You may be right if you are referring to the fight comments made here on this GetBig Board, but here in town the main "hype" is .....
Will all those seats get sold at the current asking prices?
Will there be a major price reduction a few days before and on the day of the fight?
Will all the hotel rooms be overbooked that weekend?
And of course .... Is Mayweather really gonna win this one as most everyone anticipates?
If you do decide to come to town on fight weekend, you can still book a decent room for a nightly price of less than $200 ..... and even a couple of places for slightly less than $100 ... but that does not include the unadvertised "Resort fee" which is about $25/night extra.
And the fight ticket prices presently run from a low of $1,400 and all the way up to $109,195 plus "fees". That expensive one is front row and there are two available at present.
Apparently .. INSANITY REIGNS!
