Apparently Alex Lasry's chatter about "corporate greed" is just that: chatter.
He's hiked Bucks season ticket prices by quite a bit; up to a 60++% jump since last year.
...Lasry has been silent as fans have complained about the rising price of season tickets since January, when some said they were hit with increases of up to 60 percent. While some attributed the spike to the team's recent success—the Bucks won the NBA championship last year—many slammed the increase as a money grab and said normal Wisconsinites have been priced out of the market.
The ticket hike could undercut Lasry's class-warrior rhetoric as he works to deflect criticism of Democratic economic policies and soaring inflation. Lasry, the son of Bucks co-owner and billionaire hedge funder Marc Lasry, has billed himself as a champion for "middle class workers" in TV ads....
Apparently, some greed is better than other greed. Or something.
