(The Center Square) – Frank Stiner was excited when he received the invitation to Titans House in late October along with his cousin as they prepared to buy seats at the new Nissan Stadium.
They are original seat holders from the first hour tickets in Nashville went on sale, in the fifth row of the end zone, and were excited to continue that family tradition by expanding their ticket base from two to four.
Instead, they received sticker shock.
Their $750 PSLs, which grant the holder the right to buy tickets for that seat, now would cost $10,000 per seat. They voiced concern over the price increase to a Titans sales representative and, instead of that being the start of a conversation, it was the end.
Stiner and Shea Lee were shown the door after less than 15 minutes and were told they would receive a follow-up email.
“It was kind of unbelievable,” Stiner said. “… We were prepared for an increase, absolutely, we knew they were going to triple or whatever. But when he said that you’re going from $750 a seat to $10,000 a seat, that was just nuts. And there’s no concession for legacy customers or long-time PSL holders.”
