I raised my tickets
bleachers from 10 to 12
Lower Tier from 35 to 50
courtside from 100 to 150

total attendace went down 700, however revenue stayed the same.

I also think that how good the team you play has an affect on attendance. my last five home games have been
2100 (last place team)
3017 (2nd place team)
2543 (6th place team)
2939 (3rd place team)
----------------------------all of the above were at old prices
2437 (5th place team)

so compare the 2543 (old prices 6th place team) and the 2437 (new price 5th place). I am sure I would have sold maybe 2800 or so if I had not raised prices, however revenue would be less.
also, I have a 10 game winning streak, and have not change PR guy, so that should not be a variable.

Your opponent's rank will surely have an effect, I believe.

So my attandance went from
Bl: 497 to 1431 (max 4500) + 934 (+188%)
Lo: 75 to 326 (max 450) + 251 (+335%)
Co: 19 to 50 (max 50) + 31 (+163%)
Lu: 0 to 0 max 0) + 0 (+0%)
Tot: 591 to 1807 (max 5000) + 1216 (+206%)

The game before I lost (to the first placed team), but the game before that one I won (against the last placed), which was my first home match. This match was against the 4th placed team.
For courtside I reached max, so I don't know how far they would've gone.
So roughly: for cutting the price in half, you get 3x the attendance, giving you 50% extra revenue (what I was hoping for).
I also seems that the higher priced seats are more sensitive to price than to results as the rules state.

also, I woulld assume that tickets sales are affected by season ticket holders? I only have 153 season ticket holders. I hope next season that figure will be much higher and (MAYBE??) increase tickets sales.

season ticket holders doesnt increase your income. It just gives you insurance that x amount of ticket holders will come to the game the whoel season. In your case you can aspect at least 152 supporters each game.

This is not true.

The amount of ticket holders impact your economy more than that.

Hmm, i see.

Weird though, if it has that much impact it should be given another name other than season ticket holders.

Just wondering, in case of the bleachers were full, would the fans purchase lower tier tickets?

Say, I set the price of bleacher to be $8 to attract more fans to attend, it could be full easily. And then they had to buy lower tier tickets or even courtside tickets to watch the game. Does it work in this way?

I seriously doubt it. I had my bleachers sell out every game for a season at max prices, but it didn't seem to impact my other seats. (which didn't sell out).

I think each level of seating has a "cap" on it.
