Bmwolf21 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 THOUSANDS of tickets remain guys..... Not according to the News & Observer...(http://www.newsobserver.com/122/story/445740.html) "WANNA GO? Good luck, but as of late Wednesday, a few tickets were still available. To try to buy tickets, go through Ticketmaster or the RBC Center box office. Call (866) 645-2263 for information." I had no problem finding blocks of 6 & 8 seats together last night, and a quick check this morning shows groups of 8 still available in the 300s...hmmm....

BRH Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 you can go on ticket master right now and buy whole rows! That's still true now at almost 10 a.m.. 8 tickets together available in section 209. But but but they are $160 a pop. :rolleyes: You can still get the cheapest tickets ($70) in section 313 as well. There are tickets all over the damn place. What an effing disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jad1 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I live in Florida and always try to make it over to Tampa when the Sabres play there. I had a message on my machine last night from a guy from the Lightning's ticket office, wanting to discuss my "experience" at the games I attended. These are the defending Stanley Cup champions for chrissakes, and their fishing for ticket buyers from a pool of people who live out of town and have attended one or two games per season! This whole national market dream of the NHL is a farce. It's time to stop trying to get blood from a stone. Contract the league and focus on strong regional markets. Put teams back in Quebec and Winnepeg. Take a look at the Portland and Las Vegas markets. And by the way, the Canes are not a "new" market. They've been in Carolina for 8 or 9 years, and have played in a Cup final. They compare to the Sabres circa 1978, who had no problem selling out the barn, especially in the playoffs. If there was a hockey market there, they should have tapped it by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
