Some of these #'s are staggering, but it is in proximity to Silicon Valley. I'm assuming that the new Milwaukee arena will not have PSL's, but if they did I wonder if they would hit MU season ticket holders with some type watered down PSL.

The $'s being thrown around in the NBA now is crazy.

Speaking of new stadiums, arenas etc. don't know if this was posted yet - goes back a few weeks:

PSLs exist in every NFL stadium, but are relatively rare in the NBA. The Milwaukee Bucks considered them for their new arena, but decided it wasn’t a workable business model. Bucks president Peter Feigin said the Warriors—one of the greatest teams ever assembled, and playing in one of the richest markets—are the only team that could get away with it.


“That’s a surreal world, when you look at how flush they are in Silicon Valley,” Feigin said. “You look at the demand in the immense corporate base, and the amount of high-net-worth individuals. The market is such an anomaly, these guys were doing a $6 million, $7 million gate for playoff games[.]”
