I guess people in general are pretty passive. From the gouging at a hockey game to gouging at the gas pump, everyone always says we should boycott, but nobody ever does.
At the end of the day we all complain, but then we all just take it.

But ( in a complete unscientific way) I've noticed that many people that I know have stopped going to the games. The price gouging has hit a point where people just don't think it is worth it. They either watch at a pub/bar of watch at home on their nice screen, eating good food and drinks.
Our family had 4 seasons tickets for years. After a while the entertainment value just wasn't worth the price.
