Anyone else think spectator prices are to high?

I went to the Glyndon Buffalo River Race Park yesterday to watch nationals sno x and it cost me $10 to park and $25 dollars for a DAY pass general admission. I almost kept driving when I saw what they were charging for parking in theyre own unpaved parking lot and then adding insult to injury paying $50 to get me and my girlfriend in. Anyone else think this is getting out of hand or am I wrong?

It's no different than any other race track.... That place makes money on everything. They charged 10 bucks just for practice on my quad. When you show up over 20 times a year that's kinda a bit. Offer season passes.

Sorry, kinda relavent but not, but I have been needing to vent.....WTF is up with the televised snocross shows? HORRIBLE coverage. Like REALLY amatuer. Every 3 minutes "We had a chance to chat with "snocross guy" or "Our very own "xxx" visited with "snowcross guy."
When they are actually looking at/covering the race: "OMG, TUCKER HIBBERT JUST WENT AROUND A CORNER AND IS GOING UP A HILL!!!!!"
If you have seen the shows, you know what I mean. I love riding, love sleds, love racing, but I fast forward though most of the snowcrosses this year, it is bad.

Wait, $10 practice day? Your complaining about that? Are you out of your mind? Like batsh!t crazy or what? $10 to ride a private facility? That is the deal of the century. We pay $20-$35 for practice days. I would KILL for $10 practice!!!

For comparson, it's upwards of $50 per person to go watch a national MX race. Paying for parking bogus, are you sure it wasn't a gate fee?
