One of the articles also said the Dodgers would never let this happen again.
I am sure it also has something to do with profit for them. When they sell bulk seats like that they go for a discount - I think it said somewhere he got the seats for like $3 or so each. And when you consider if the stands would be full (they would be if it was not for this guy - end of season, the top two temas fighting for playoff spots) they would make BANK in food and souvineer (sp?) sales as well - plus selling the seats for face and not bulk discount.
