The PPV company PAID HIM for the rights.

He still sold out four out of five nights.

He still had 270 cars at the event.

He still had an ungodly amount of people in the pits.

I wish I could get raked over like that once a year.
who is talking about how many cars or people was in the stands. I was talking about the telecast on why no live pay per view.
Did HBO paid him by the right or was it on how many ordered it or both.

And I'm asking a new question.

Regardless of how many buyers there were, Emmett still got his check in the full amount. So I'm curious to know why he feels he got "raked over"? Or is this just typical Emmett whining about television?

Did he not sell those last 3 pit passes and he thinks they stayed home to watch on TV?

Typically it is paid by rights fees, regardless of how many buyers.
