Wait till Simmons proves himself against men in the NBA then that money would be worth it. These games are out of season exhibition games, and that includes the NBL team....do you pay that much for ani NBL game that possibly won't be full strength?
They need a reality check, people are just using Ben Simmons as a draw card to make money, when really he's still very much a young kid who's not really done anything YET on the international level. Yes he's killed in high school, but that's against kids his own age and strength.

20 August too late to take both my boys as one will already be on a plane heading to college but if I was to go with No.2 I would have to consider the lower end of the ticket prices.

$20.00 X 2 = $40.00
Fuel cost for travel = $20.00
Food or drink purchase (optional) = $40.00
Merchyandise for purchase (optional) = $100.00

I love my college basketball and although it isn't cheap we are also talking about an NBL team in action.

I guess I would have to know if Simmons was actually going to play that day, if so I would love to go and have a look, if not I don't know that I would bother.

Was also $2 to watch New Mexico a couple of years ago (same as SMC from memory) at Kilsyth and the same for Hartford at Knox last year.

I honestly believe $2 was cheap, but these prices are in my opinion pretty steep.

Are they joking, who is going to pay that to watch a bunch of college kids over here, just because Ben Simmons is playing does not equate to inflated prices only inflated egos.
Every year you get a college team come over, they do it for practice as part of their pre pre season. NCAA allow them one overseas trip every 4 yrs, charging $100 a ticket is ridiculous, most do a $5.00 door entry to cover cost of refs that's it.

It would be great to see Ben Simmons and LSU up close and even playing our own Melbourne United.
