17,850 is the official sellout number for the Bruins but on Monday the Bruins in the official NHL report said they fell short - Their last non-sellout game was on 12/2/2009 when a Wednesday game vs. TB drew 16,553

The sellout streak was bogus but if it were close enough they would say it was.......... but not last night

Monday at 6:30 PM you could have bought 2 tickets in Loge 108 for $40

There is stuff going on with the Jacobs that nobody outside the family knows. All I can share is this.....

Papa Jacobs loved a tavern in East Aurora, NY, and went there often to see old friends and watch a Bills road game. They have not seen him in 2 years. Truth is Jeremy loves and respects the blue-collar work ethic of Western New York and he kept his family company there.

This has happened to all our Boston teams last 10 years

The Celtics had loge seats $30 post Pierce-Garnett.

They picked
2014 6th Smart
2015 3rd Brown
2016 1st (3) Tatum

My friend had loge seats those years sold at his cost to friends, however, once bad no interest paying $120 when they were available for less than half that

We bought Red Sox September left field past third lower box my favorite seats two years ago $40

As for Jacobs he wasn’t here for 100 years celebration and rumor health related

He was around a lot prior to that ~ he hasn’t been seen I don’t think in a few years over there

The actual team doesn’t suck imo - and I don’t fall into the American intersection of Panic & overreaction.

Rule 1: you start by changing the most obvious reason for the problem. It either is resolved, improved, or isnt

I hope somebody writes a book someday about this ownership group

What an interesting story.

Jeremy takes a hardline stance in the 90s, and fights to the nail against the players association to get his salary cap.

By all accounts, the Bruins multiple Cups in the process.

They finally do right through post lockout when they bring in an outsider to assemble the roster and implement his vision.

However, in the grand scheme of things, the one Cup is an under achievement.

Always in the mix, rarely coming out on top.

That’s what the scoreboard says your legacy is.
