Haven't been to Calgary to see a game, so I don't know about the specific seats, just pointing out that $7 seats are available to all those saying "if we had Sunbelt prices, we'd sell out". Seats near the rafters in any arena are certainly not the best.
Fine...still not hitting the point I was making, but whatever. They have had strong attendance in the past, not sure why all the sudden they're now a terrible view.
You failed to answer the question, big guy. Attendance in Atlanta sucked. The team sucked. They already had two chances, so why do they deserve a 3rd team while Arizona continues to lose money for the entirety of its existence?
Nice reading skills...big guy.
I would rather have a woman painting her nails instead of half the male fans who don't understand the game but have to opine about every single play as if they are an expert.
I make better than average money and I go to two games a year at max and don't attend playoff games because the prices are so inflated. Most season ticket holders I know go to maybe half the games and sell off the rest to get some of their money back.
I don't even think it matters how much you make to be honest. Someone making 300k a year knows if something is overpriced as much as someone making 100k.
It’s good to know so many other people seem to be in the same boat.
Again those are resale seats. They have already been sold. It simply reflects the resale market for that particular game, not the original sale price. And I defy you to find me any game in the history of resale outfits where there aren't some tickets available for resale right up to game time.
Again resale seats. Whether someone buys those resale seats or not, they will still count towards the official attendance.
So much this. Inflation has absolutely kicked my ass in the worst ways. What used to be upper middle class money that I was making is now dead middle at best. The cost of living has gone up 20% over the last 3 years while wages have gone up maybe 2%, and that's not something unique to me at all. I'm just glad the Canes and Charlotte FC are hot tickets in the state right now so I can at least break even (or a bit better) on games I can't make.

Think we're debating separate things, here. I really don't know how ticket brokers work in terms of revenue for teams. As noted, I was just replying to the poster who was repeating a popular cliche here over the years about having tickets available for Sunbelt teams that were "so cheap". All I'm pointing out is that there are tickets available in Calgary for $7. That's it. Just wanting to try to end that misconception that southern teams have these cheap tickets that they can't sell and everywhere else has it so bad.
