I've gone to many fight weekends. The table minimums are quite higher as are the crowds. Like the top spots will have $3-5k table minimums for the small tables
We usually end up at a lower tier spot like Tryst. The logistical problem is that the fight usually ends around 10. Getting out of the venue takes a while and the cab lines are insane (better to get a limo). Generally if you have a table you have to get there by 11 otherwise the promoter can just give your table to someone or raise your minimum when you get there, which does happen. It's supply and demand.
I remember back in the days of Tyson fights, the MGM would raise gambling table miniums to $100. Insane amount of ballets ballin' it up.
The MGM PPV parties are fun because you're at the venue itself. It's like 100 per person to watch but it's pretty rowdy and crazy
