Browns prices are on the rise

BEREA — The Browns have something to sell. They will be charging more for it and they will be collecting sooner.

Ticket prices throughout the stadium have been raised from their 2007 levels. For example, lower-tier Dawg Pound seats that cost $40 a game in 2007 will cost $50 in 2008.

Upper-tier Dawg Pound seats have increased from $40 to $45.

Thus, the total bill for better Dawg Pound seats jumps from $400 to $500, based on a 10-game home schedule. Season ticket holders also pay for two preseason games.

A 10-6 season emboldened the team not only to raise prices, but to require earlier payment. Last year, money was not due until after the draft. This year, it is due April 1.
