A season ticket is ~$77 per home game now. $30 for parking and the Dolphins have been shitty for 10 years. Long as the revenue is coming in Wayne could care less. Fill in the same for the Marlins & Panthers.
Yes it has been bad management, but you can't really blame Huizenga there. He is an owner and not a football guy, so he does exactly what a good owner should, spend the money and get out of the way. When he owned the Marlins I agree he didn't give a shit after the first World Series win, but he honestly does care about the Dolphins. The revenue is coming in but he has no problem dishing it right back out. I lived outside Cincinnati almost 10 years, and that was the epitome of an owner that didn't give a shit prior to Marvin Lewis being hired as head coach. Mike Brown had a bare bones scouting department and was constantly under the salary cap but just pocketed the difference...
