"David Baldini has watched Washington Wizards games since Michael Jordan was on the team. He bought his first set of season tickets more than 20 years ago, initially sitting in the upper level before moving down to prime seats - right behind the Wizards' bench - for the past seven or eight seasons. But after the Wizards had the worst record in the Eastern Conference last season."
"On a per-game basis, the Wizards increased 34 of the 41 pricing tiers that carried over from last season. The jumps come amid the early stages of renovations to Capital One Arena and as the team treks through an intentional and aggressive rebuild. Washington won just 15 and 18 games in the past two seasons - the worst stretch in franchise history- and even internally, the front office doesn't seem to expect many more victories this year."
David Baldini has been a Wizards fan since Michael Jordan's tenure and bought season tickets more than 20 years ago, later moving to premium seats behind the bench. After the team posted the worst record in the Eastern Conference and raised the cost of his two seats by roughly $10,000 (about 20 percent), he canceled his full-season tickets and plans to cherry-pick games because partial plans felt too expensive. The franchise increased per-game prices in 34 of 41 pricing tiers amid Capital One Arena renovations and an intentional rebuild after consecutive 15- and 18-win seasons, fueling fan frustration over price relative to on-court product.
