It's a different entertainment experience, a different value for the money.
Watching the boob tube is a completely different experience from having real live boobs swirled in front of your face. Trying to equate everything via a dollars and sense comparison is way too corporate a way to look at your own life, leave that crap at the office. :angry: Why? It puts you in the position of knowing the cost of everything and the value of nothing.
There is even a school of thought that strip clubs are a complete waste of time and money. Fancy that! :blink:

well, with the cubs game, people going probably have the money to take care of longer term things, so have some left over for the cubs. with no house and such, it seems those 2000 dollars would be spent as effeciently as possible. Plus it's fun to stick logic into places like this where it isn't wanted. :)
