If Premier league games are getting expensive then that is one thing they have in common with NFL games - those are CRAZY expensive! Parking alone for SoFi (Rams and Chargers) is $100. NBA games are crazy expensive too. Baseball is not bad, and NHL is a bargain. I attend a couple of Anaheim Ducks games a season and I can get seats for those games for the same price I paid their first year in the league (<$30). Parking too - $20 for the "official" parking, but it's easy to find parking for $10 a short walk away.

It tends to follow how well they are doing too though I can't speak for every team.

When Sporting KC (soccer) first started the prices were very well priced, the stadium built does have a good thing going for it in that there isn't really a bad seat, in any case as they started proving to be good the pricing went up. After the Royals won the 2015 World Series the following year the ticket pricing was high and stayed high until they went back to being a not so good team. When the Chiefs started winning and then won the 2020 Super Bowl the following season's ticket were high and have stayed high since, some games less than others but the overall trend being as the team was winning interest increased and so did pricing.

Sporting KC got one of our ( Dundee United) well loved Strikers, Johnny Russell. Legend

That's true to an extent - going to a Kings game is going to cost you more than going to a Ducks game. Going to see the Red Sox play in Fenway is going to cost more than seeing the Angels play. I just find that NFL and NBA as a whole has crossed a line and those games are by-and-large unaffordable to the common fan.
