Consider this thought:
The Chief experience officer in an effort to earn her 300K salary came up with a plan to limit attendance. In an effort to quell the mass exodus after the Belmont Stakes the Goo Goo Dolls will play after the last race. I get it that some younger Dolls fans will show up 10 minutes before the Belmont to possibly witness history and hang out to see their band for $15 bucks. I'll give her 5000 that will hang out putting a very minor dent in the dash to the parking lots and LIRR platform.
Has anyone even considered that you could get a flow of fans coming into the park after the Belmont to waltz in for free admission to see Richiebee's favorite band?
I've been to over 20 Belmont Stakes and was live in person at last years fiasco!
I have seats this year and Laura is sure this is the year for a Triple Crown!
All my instincts tell me to sell my $75 seats on stub hub for $ 500 each but she is driving me crazy to go.
I can imagine a cluster you know what of epic proportion as 80,000 head out and a few thousand try to get in the parking lot, off the train or bus trying to get in
for a freebie concert as the Dunkin Donut patrol sits by collecting overtime.
A good thing they didn't book a really popular band!
