The Palace at Auburn Hills, home of the Detroit Pistons, is offering new luxury suites next fall. The cost: $450,000.

Oh, one other thing — there’s no view of the actual basketball court. That’s right. Four-hundred fifty grand to leave your living room, drive to the Palace, pay for parking, then sit in a room with 12 of your friends to watch the game. On television. Just like you could have done in your living room.

Okay, so you do get two tickets to the VIP section of the stadium. But I’m guessing you could get those for a lot less than $450,000.
