223 remain, would need serious swag for a price that high to be Oynx brand. Not like it’s a major player in the game. Will be interesting to see how the tickets move.

Love when events like this post ‘Free: Swag, Food, etc.’

It’s $900. Nothing is ‘Free’. Put ‘Included’.

Looks like they took off ticket tracker to find out how many moved.

You are paying for the experience more than anything. It all comes down to how accessible the athletes are. If you could have a beer with Randy Johnson and play him in skeeball, that may be worth it to some. But if everyone is roped off and interaction is minimal, then I can see where the "swag" becomes more important and in this case Onyx would be my last choice of events to attend based on freebies.

Normally you can get into these events by buying mass amounts of cases of their products. I hate how you have to pay in now instead of loyalty.

I dont know. 900 to get a bunch of autos a black box some prizes food and drink and hang with some hall of.famers for a couple of hours at D&B. Sounds fair. If it was in NJ or NY I would.do it. Depends on who they are. If its tony romo, mark messier and manny ramirez. I'll pass. Lol
