I wonder, how much of ticket price increases can be attributed to resellers? It's not long after tickets are released that it seems _everything_ for sale is third-party.
Ironically, this also makes attending a game super cheap if you're willing to deal with the uncertainty of buying tickets from an online reseller right before game time (or even slightly after).
The uncertainty factor, of course, makes it really tough if you're taking e.g. a family to the game. Have fun explaining to kids why you're turning around and coming home, or why mommmy is sitting 15 rows away because it was impossible to get 4 seats located together.
But, for a couple of friends hitting up a game... it can be a great way to go.
