We finally gave up planning. Friday morning, those $900 seats were down to $100. Of course there are tons of unsold tickets for today right now and they're down a bit but still $600 and up. I get it, they are after a different customer these days.
Edit: also look at the article in link on previous page. There are direct stories from people that were interviewed. VIP was $30k. Others paid over $1,000 each and up.

I loved the part where the one lady said after Saturday she decided to stay at hotel and watch since it was so bush league.
