Perplexity AI... How much is an annual passholder seat to a major sports team plus the cost of getting to the games plus the cost of cable tv to watch games at home?

Answer
There isn't a single universal price for annual passes to major sports teams, as costs can vary significantly depending on the sport, team, and location. However, I can provide a general overview of the potential costs involved: Annual Pass/Season Ticket Cost:
Prices for season tickets to major sports teams can range widely, typically from around $500 to over $10,000 per seat, depending on the sport, team popularity, and seat location. For example:

NFL (American Football): Average season ticket prices range from $1,000 to $3,000+
NBA (Basketball): Average season ticket prices range from $2,000 to $5,000+
MLB (Baseball): Average season ticket prices range from $1,500 to $3,000+

Transportation Costs:
The cost of getting to games varies based on your location relative to the stadium and your mode of transportation. Factors to consider include:

Parking fees (if driving): Can range from $20 to $60+ per game
Public transportation costs (if available)
Fuel costs for driving

Cable TV Package:
To watch games at home, you'll need a cable or streaming package that includes the relevant sports channels. Costs can vary, but expect to pay:

Basic cable package with sports channels: $50 to $100+ per month
Sports-specific streaming services: $20 to $80+ per month

Total Annual Cost Estimate:
Combining these factors, a rough estimate for a full season of attendance plus home viewing could range from $3,000 to $15,000+ per year, depending on the sport, team, and your specific circumstances. It's important to note that many fans opt for partial season ticket packages or attend only select games to manage costs. Additionally, some teams offer more affordable options like standing room only passes or upper-level seating at lower prices.

I just went back to the RSP, reconfirmed my selections to make sure I was all good. Got another email with my exact same selections. Looks like I’m all set!

I was doing some digging around on Reddit and it does sound like you and your friend are stuck making one set of selections between the two of you. I suggest selecting the ones you really want to attend and then use standby for any others.

Thanks for the help! I ended up calling and emailing customer service to see if there was anything they could do, because it was clearly indicated in the instructions that you would have to enter you badge number on the RSP page, which there wasn't even an option to do, and it didn't say anywhere that you couldn't register two badges under the same account. But I got no sympathy and had to accept defeat. My friend and I spent over an hour earlier this week locking in our options, trying to decide what things to prioritize and where we should rank our preferences. This was so much more complicated than in 2019, where you just had to battle to be the first in the queue and you made your selections for whatever was left when you got in. I vastly prefer the more leisurely way it was done this year, but man, it has been a learning curve for sure! I swear, you skip one year and they change everything. Hopefully now all the hard stuff is over, and when we get there, things will be a lot easier than in previous years. But it's D23, so I'm not expecting miracles!

Fingers crossed for the 2nd! May the odds be ever in our favor.

Disney just posted a photo of IasW with the #horizons hashtag. This begs the question, what are they doing to small world? Oh God don't let it be something bad

Each one so far has been about the complete history of an attraction, first Country Bears now Small World. Do you think they could be announcing a new Disney + series at the panel about Disney Park History?

Could be, but wouldn't that be at the TV or D+ panel if there are those?
