Fan Cost Index 1991 - 2003
This information can be found in its original form at Team
Marketing Report's FCI page.
From TMR, explaining the Fan Cost Index (FCI) |
Average ticket price represents
a weighted average of season ticket prices for general seating
categories, determined by factoring the tickets in each price
range as a percentage of the total number of seats in each ballpark.
Luxury suites are also excluded from the survey. Season-ticket
pricing is used for any team that offers some or all tickets at
lower prices for customers who buy season tickets.
The Fan Cost Index™ comprises the prices of two (2)
adult average-price tickets, two (2) child average-price tickets,
two (2) small draft beers, four (4) small soft drinks, four (4)
regular-size hot dogs, parking for one (1) car, two (2) game programs
and two (2) least expensive, adult-size adustable caps. Costs
were determined by telephone calls with representatives of the
teams, venues and concessionaires. Identical questions were asked
in all interviews.
