These figures are estimates. Most venues no longer publish the numbers behind them (concession and ticket pricing moved to dynamic marketplaces), so we hold them as estimates rather than dating them as verified.
- Parking prices: Never checked against a published rate: the venue's parking page, read 2026-09-05, publishes none. The site says rates vary by event and refers callers to the parking office or ParkWhiz. The 2026-07-27 figures were compiled from third-party listings (was: "Mortgage Matchup Center 2026: attached arena garage about $20-$30 on event nights, nearby private surface lots $8-$15").
