Proposal: Oilers Office Silent Protest Nov 13/2013

[RackingGuy1]

I propose a fan protest at the Oilers Office on Kingsway.
November 13/2013 - the night of the Dallas game.

Silent protest surrounding the building with social media coverage and potentially local media.

A "bold" way to make the management group of this organization pay attention to the fan base.

If fans do not attend this game and instead protest in mass, the message may get across.

Oilers fans can be a united front in good times, lets see if they can rally in bad times and provoke change.

Just an idea.

Only way to really protest is to stop buying tickets and Oilers merchandise.

What message?

 

[Hockey Nightmare]

That's just creepy.

 

[Tirefire]

Talk to the Tier One fan about that.

A former Tier One fan who gave up his 4 season tickets over the stink that is the Oilers.

that was my first thought, too.


Katz already has your season ticket money. not going to the game won't hurt too much. unpaid for empty seats would begin to hurt him.

as for the rest of us, you've heard Kevin Lowe.
We're not tier one fans, so he doesn't listen to us.

I'm of the mindset that protests should be about things that matter in real life, and hockey falls outside of that.

 

[Mr Forever]

Donate your season tickets - which you already wasted your money on - to some poor kids rather than trying to make a passive point to a group of people who could not care less about the people in this city. Don't kid yourselves.

Just don't go to the games
Voila

Personally I think it would be hilarious if the fanbase had any sort of organizational abilities, and no one showed up to a game.

Even though 12 people showed up, it made the news and he was let go shortly after. It did kinda work to draw more attention and I think it did make an impact

Sorry can't take you seriously with an Avatar like that.

Don't worry, it only gets worse when you read my posts.

I don't think this is leading anywhere productive. So I'll preemptively nip it in the bud.
