Evening Admission at Oshkosh
Point taken Kyle. I'm not trying to rip off EAA, but don't you think
some reduced admission after 5 PM is appropriate? After all, most every
exhibit area will be already closed. Vendors will have shut down,
except for EAA souvenirs. The air show will have concluded, and very
few seminars are still available. I'm sure they'll still charge the $6
for parking too.

On the other hand, an event like Airventure costs money to stage. Everything
from providing porta-potties, to keeping the grass cut, to putting on
evening entertainment. At $21/day, it is a real bargain and the admission
price typically doesn't represent a big portion of the trip's cost. Why
short-change the event that is the focus of your trip? Most of us probably
wouldn't try and sneak off without paying for gas in our car or airplane,
and if you boil it down, paying for admission to the show isn't any
different.
