    The Yankees is like 150 mill, Red Sox is like 120 mill...

    For my team (Nationals) its a pathetic 21 mill, yet I have everything bought for the stadium and my team has won a World Series...

    I'm hoping to upgrade it.

    In regards to adding more seats or concessions, it all depends. If it's going to take forever to get enough for the next stadium upgrade, then add a few concessions... they'll pay for themselves anyways... allowing you to have even more money to upgrade the seating.

    Spend a mill or so getting some soda, pizza stands.

            FYI... you guys will understand why the logo "the buzz" shows up behind home plate once you've hit a homerun with the level 6 celebration purchased...

                Haha...something to look forward to.

                So, if someone has a distinct set of instructions on how to start owner mode with a "small market" team, I would be very interested
                Arsenal FC
                New England Patriots
                Boston Red Sox
                Boston Celtics

                        Ok guys, I made 10 million in my first season with the White Sox. Is this good or bad? Any suggestions for how to use this money? Should I upgrade to 5000 extra seats even though I wasn't selling out before? Should I spend it on some extra concessions or upgrade other small parts of the stadium? I don't want to mess this up!

                                You have a couple options.

                                More seating will not only generate more revenue through tickets, but also sell more concessions, assuming you aren't already maxed out for your food...

                                You won't average a sellout, but for the big series you should come close to selling out those... if the price is right, you'll sell out any game... it's just a matter of if lowering the price for the crappy series is worth it, since you'd not make as much per ticket.

                                I tried to upgrade the stadium as fast as I could.

                                I'm maxed out on everything now and my predicted revenue is close to $250 mill, with a measely television contract of only 20 mill... I think my payroll has to get higher to get a better tv contract... it's only 89 mill right now.
