As the Professional Era took shape, 50-cent admission fees were common, if not standard, in the new league.

(Add data on typical crowd sizes?) (On typical bathroom facilities?) (On available food and drink availability and prices?) (On other now-forgotten practices?)

Debate on admission fees persisted for the AA and the NL was to persist into the 1880s.

Admission gave attendees access to standing room.  A seat in the grandstand was (always? sometimes?) extra, and within 2 or three years grandstand seats were being sold for one dollar.
