    £92 to watch Barnsley at Anfield from their main stand when Brian Howard beat them.

    I couldn't get in the away end, so I went down the tout route.

    £89 for Lady Gaga in Manchester.

    I've paid £60 for tickets to watch Luke Campbell fight Tommy Coyle in a few weeks.

    For a footballing event, I went away to Leeds in Wilson's first game back. I think those tickets were £39.

    I paid over £200 for a weekend ticket at Leeds Fest. I'd have preferred Download but the majority vote in the friends group was Leeds Fest so off I went.

    I suppose a season ticket down at Oakwell counts for my sporting answer right
