I paid $250 CDN for a Stones concert, dead centre beside the rolled
out sub-stage. But then again, I live in a small city and we don't
normally get the big name acts so it was more of a special thing.
Apparently 90,000 turned out or almost 1/2 the city during the two
concerts.

I paid $150 CDN for Grey Cup seats and I thought that was a steal
(40yd line)

Television just isn't the same thing as a live performance!

EACH???        
Now, those would have to be stage tickets for that price. IE, you sit
in the stage platforms looking right on top of the stage and out onto
the core audience, that also comes with a backstage pass IIRC. Robert
Di Niro (apparently a big Stones fan) and Charlize Theron were also in
town and that's the type of ticket they had (but I bet they didn't
actually pay for them!) For what it's worth they all stayed at the
same hotel so they could have had some interesting parties going on.
Mick and the boys were in town for 4 days because of the double
concert (the only 2 show performance they gave in North America).

I paid $250 for the normally $308 tickets.

>Whats <the> Grey Cup?

Our football championship. But I believe the top price of the tickets
were about $275 vs. the min. price for a Super Bowl ticket at $500??
