Are bar owners charged per person or something ridiculous like that? I seem to remeber when Tyson was in his prime, this was the issue for all his ppv fights. |

I think they're charged by the maximum number of people allowed by the Fire Dept.

| reply to jebba2005 Certainly for big soccer events carried only on Setanta PPV (e.g. some of the world cup qualifiers), Setanta pays an agent to stand at the door and take $25 off everyone entering the bars showing the game!! This is the same price you pay to watch the game in your house on PPV.

Yes that is correct. When I used to run a Gentleman's Club in Baltimore, I put up Pro Sports on the TVs and that is how Direct TV charged the club. |
