Suppose that an arena has a capacity of 20,000 seats. Over the course of a weekend, a tournament will host 3 games between 6 teams with each team playing exactly one game. There are 2000 dedicated fans of each team (so 2000*6-12,000 total dedicated fans), who will each pay up to $150 to see the game with their team playing and up to $10 per game to see the other two games. There are also 2000 general fans who will pay up to $50 per game to see each of the three games. Thus, there are 14,000 fans altogether (2000*6 + 2000). Assume the marginal cost of admitting one more fan (up to the capacity limit) is $0. a. As the manager of the arena, suppose you could perfectly price discriminate. How many tickets would you expect to sell to each
