Same here. The lower section seats were $300. I wanted to go out to Vegas for the December card (Rampage vs Silva, Mir vs Noguira) but tickets were crazy expensive for that PPV.

wHy ya'LL voting for violence ? bunCh oF vioLent mofoS !MMA Mania passes along a bit of bad news regarding the fight to lift the ban on MMA in New York State:
MMA is currently unregulated in New York, and appeared to be on the verge of being sanctioned in 2008, but some eleventh-hour concerns from uneducated members of the Assembly Committee on Tourism, Arts and Sports Development scuttled its passage.
Another session on the matter began in the state capital on January 7 and was expected to reconvene on February 11.
No longer.
?Budget issues? are expected to monopolize the entire schedule for the immediate future, effectively pushing non-critical items (like MMA sanctioning) to the legislative back burner...[W]ith an obstacle as broad and sweeping as ?Budget issues,? who can even say when that vote will be.
If there's a bright side to this unfortunate setback, it's that it gives the MMA community more time to spread awareness of this issue to the uninformed. Please do your part by signing our "Lift the Ban on MMA in New York" petition (if you haven't already), and sending the link to every MMA fan and New Yorker that you know. I'm sure we can get this thing to over 10,000 signatures before it's time to present it to New York's Assembly Committee on Tourism, Arts and Sports Development. Thanks so much, everybody...
Please keep signing the petition and pass it along, Thanks.
