dynamic pricing in the secondary market would fall. e issue is whether the same
concepts would apply to SSH when the event horizon is the date when all tickets
are no longer reserved for season ticket packages and therefore become available
for individual purchase. While season tickets prices would not rise or fall as this
event horizon approaches, some teams do provide incentives that encourage SSH
to renew early. Renewal aer the date in which individual game tickets go on sale
may result in a lower perceived seat value, since some premium seats may no lon-
ger be available for a full or half season.
