All of that sounds about right with what I’ve been told. Don’t think there’s anyway LU turned a profit on that $77k, so I’m not sure what you mean by “bargain”.

All I meant was that you’ve gotta have some money to do this right. I’m glad my alma mater ponies-up for the guys. They deserve this.

Oh, no way we did $77,000 in gate and concessions (maybe half that) but just because it cost $$ doesn't mean it wasn't a bargain. The experience and extra practice time they got was priceless.

We had three home DI games without back-ends on the road for roughly $77k? In an era of DI guarantees it would be considered a bargain in my book. And obviously these games are not about profit margins.
