THE RED BULL
9 years ago I got Sixers season tickets because at $410 payable over 12 months I would get to see the Knicks twice plus 39 extra games whereas to see the Knicks 3 times at MSG would pretty much cost me that to see a decent opponent. My tickets are now $11 a game and locked in at that price for the forseeable future because of my tenure. I was making so few games last year I considered dropping them but my rep outright told me to keep them and sell them all on StubHub for big money (which is the same philosophy on resale the Flyers employ). For hockey I have Isles and Devils and I basically sell the 11 or so big games to cover the cost of the other 30 games (I'm just as happy to see a midweek game vs Calgary as a weekend game vs the Caps). Teams have to realize most people have to do that to make the math work.
