Great. Many of you can pay for the tickets / increase. I am no longer. At what point is there ever- its good enough (as in life). Case in point, the Falcons with their new stadium. The dome that they have just left was only 25 years old! Really. Just something (another thing) to consider.

Want to improve fans’ gameday experience, draft some players worth a damm.
Ravens are a OLD, SLOW TEAM.

To enhance MY gameday experience, I may have to add a little extra con-carne with my taco dip and fluff up my couch cushions a bit more :)

the only change really needed were the escalators. at some point no one but the rich will be able to afford the tix. could see more empty seats around the nfl as teams keep raising prices

Ya, it is expensive to take a family of 3 to a game. We try to do it twice a year if we can but now we're in PA so it's more like one game a year for us and it has to be against Pittsburgh, which is even more expensive. I do enjoy the "Fan experience and as long as you're not sitting at the top of the bowl, you get to see stuff you can't on TV and those new screens look awesome however, watching the games on a 72" big screen, sitting in heated reclining theater seats with bass kickers in them and 7.1 Dolby surround sound with some Taco dip and a cold beer in a glass will have to do for when I can't make or afford to go in person.
Plus, I have a bathroom and a "Pause" button here! :-)

When we play in London, they don't tailgate there so we'll be able to BBQ some Bangers and mashed here and walk around using proper English and shouting God save the Queen or something for the day and it will almost be better than being there! :-)

Nothing but GREED via upgrades...if I want to make improvements on my house, I don't make my neighbors pay for it...as someone who has been to every home game to include the playoffs for the last 10 years this is the straw that broke the camel's back...I'm done with season tickets...Ravens are my team but will watch from home and save thousands of dollars!!! Besides college football is a better product, maybe use some of that Ravens money and travel to see a games like Clemson vs South Carolina or Bama vs LSU

Would depend on where you choose to sit. Also understand that when you pay $200 on a secondary market for tickets, the Ravens aren't seeing about half of that money.

Cool. There will be no shortage of people lined up to gladly take your PSL's and season tickets off your hands, which is precisely why you raise ticket prices to begin with.

Not a valid comparison either, because when you make improvements on your house, you're not making them so that others can enjoy them. You are making them so that you can enjoy them, or because your house will fall apart without them. These improvements are being made to make the visitors (customers) more comfortable and have a better experience. They're not being done to make life better for the owner.

And I don't think anybody who has actually watched college football actually thinks its a better product. May be better from an in-game entertainment perspective, but the quality of play is miles behind and I don't have any interest in watching poor defensive football sprinkled in with mildly effective offensive football.

I could go watch High School for free for that.

"The League of Fans, a sports watchdog group, says 87 percent of the Ravens’ M&T Bank Stadium was paid for by a state subsidy. Taxpayers paid $200 million of the total $229 million price tag" and were still taking it up.......
