I should have looked at the help first, but it just occured to me while looking at some of my balance sheets.

Why does ticket revenue drop when ticket prices stay the same? Does the game take inflation into account? I have looked at it for seasons with the same number of home games and same number of tickets sold, it just doesn't make sense to me.

Do playoff games confer a ticket sale bonus? If so, that might account for the difference you're seeing.

Revenue from away games.

Really? It didn't even occur to me that it would count away games. Thanks

Are you sure your ticket prices stayed the same? Or just that you didn't change them?

Look at this a little more closely, as Quik suggested. I believe it was identified that the default ticket prices that show up are not necessarily the same as last year. Therefore if you simply let the prices ride, you may not be keeping the prices the same.
