"How I want to live", or how I actually live, is by not paying exorbitant prices at events like this (or exorbitant prices elsewhere).
I'll go eat somewhere actually tasty before a game. In other areas I'm fairly frugal, as well.
Mobilizing some movement with enough people putting on an embargo to lower prices? Not even gonna try.
I do, think the OP is a step in the right direction and I'll focus on that. I understand everything, in general, is too expensive.
