Ticketmaster has been doing this for years. Just a few weeks ago I needed a parking pass for the Dolphins opener. My son is disabled so I called the stadium parking office to ask if I could purchase parking from them. They said no, I had to buy it from ticketmaster. So it’s a systemic problem along with the teams. After buying parking from Ticketmaster for $51.00 when I arrived at the stadium I had to pay an extra $10 for ADA parking.
