It would never happen.

More likely a steady decline in attendance and streaming revenue occurs as pricing become unaffordable.

There was a time in baseball when you could purchase Cleveland Indians bleacher seats for .50 cents. It was for the some of the worst Tribe teams in history, though the real attraction was seeing greats like Carl Yastrzemski, Reggie Jackson, Harmon Killebrew, Brooks Robinson -- even Cleveland's own Gaylord Perry.
