So I did some window shopping on the museum web site.Wow.
A single non-member ticket to the five-hour, black-tie optional affair goes for $250.
Watch on Deadline
The Academy is clearly out to cover its costs on this one.

This isnt exactly unexpected.
Fortunately, the Academy has had both profits and investment gains.
Theres some fundraising on the horizon, and not just by the Biden campaign.
And supposedly the event takes some expensive staging.
Over 600 tickets have been sold to date, were told.
But come March 10, I think Ill do my viewing at home on the couch.
