FCC reports minimal impact of TV blackouts on NFL sales
The FCC told Congress that televised blackouts on sold-out NFL home games had little effect on ticket sales, noting 1973 was a record season and demand for 1974 tickets remained strong. Some concessionaires saw slight harm, others gains from price increases, with data gathering hindered by NFL clubs' reluctance to share finances. Also, the University of Pittsburgh at Titusville will withdraw from intercollegiate basketball after 1974.
