Concur...MLB game actually costs more for a family of four.than a trip
to the track..yet with baseball. the baseballs don't explode after ten
pitches! :)
My solution for baseball? We go to minor league games..more fun half the
cost. For racing, until NASCAR goes full time PPV for the major tracks
I'll stick to MRN.
