Personal Price Limitations on Sporting, Concert, or other events

As my Jags tickets went up from $93 to $150 each per game over the past 4 years and as I see concert tickets going way up in price, I'm just curious if each of you draw the line when it comes to paying for such activities.  I know every event needs to be weighed independent of each other but what are your personal limitations and what is the highest priced ticket/event that you'd be willing to pay for (not including any Jaguars Super Bowl or AFC Championship game appearances).

* Jaguars -- my tix as noted above are $150 each (next to club section).  As long as they keep challenging for the playoffs, unlike the decade of disgrace (2010-2020) I can see paying more but would consider offsetting some costs to lessen the hit (e.g., sell certain games and buy cheaper tix on the resale market).

* Concerts -- I'm pretty much done with paying over $125 for a single concert event.  With that advent of big TVs and YouTube, I can watch concerts at home.  I now prefer selecting a day out of a festival and getting the best bang for the buck by getting 6 different acts from 12 noon through midnight.  This is especially true when it comes to jam bands & bluegrass style music festivals.   Although stadium tours used to be my go-to in the 80s and 90s, I'm not into the reunion or tour finales like Springsteen, Elton John, etc.   They kind of sound really old at this point -- lol.

Other ---- Perhaps I'll splurge on the 2026 World Cup games to take in a USA or a Mexico match.  Gotta see how life progresses as I near retirement (hopfeully)...


Thoughts??
