At least I can say is I’ve never bought a ticket to any pro game.
Me neither, but I have "tagged along" to some doozies. Including the 1986 Giants shellacking of the 49ers (49-3), in which they knocked their 4th QB (Montana) out of the game that year, on the way to their SB win. And also Game 6 and 7 of the 1986 World Series Mets vs. BoxSox.
