That maybe technically correct, but he is either willfully misleading the audience or he is uninformed.
About 2,000 of the upper bowl seats are higher or at least equal to lower bowl seat revenue with about 1/4 of those 2,000 (Gold) are the highest priced seats in the building and 1/4 of those 2,000 (Silver) are higher than most of the lower bowl seat prices.
