so let me get this straight, you need to have a twatter account?
I'm not a twatter, I'm happily married.


This year is a fail in terms of selling more tix via gimmicks to compensate for fed up fans who stay away. Forget it. No gimmick will work no matter how much the youngsters play their guts out.

My advice is, start rebuilding the connection with the fanbase and not just with what you can sell them Charles. Earn their trust back through your actions. The actions of this past summer were insulting to say the least.

Initially it looked to me like a twitter thing...but now it seems more expansive. It wouldn't have made sense to try and fill seats with a twitter only promo LOL.

If they want to truly roll them back, it was $5 to sit in the last two rows of the place during the first year on selected nights.

Amen!

I might add that a rebuild also includes adding pieces to the team besides through the draft and waiver wire. One year contracts are rentals, and how many of those do we have now?

Give them credit for the marketing.

ROLLBACK TICKET
PRICES SPECIAL

It's not really a roll back to 1972 pricing , which is the message the ad is intended to deliver, it's $19.72 IS the price. And they are probably what was $5 seats in 1972($3 student discounts).
I sold it all, retired and moved to Fabulous Las Vegas!

ROLLBACK TICKET---WHAT HAVE WE BECOME- WALMART?

That is why we did not renew. Not only because our tickets went up so much but they pulled the same crap last year. We renewed and a few weeks later they were giving the tickets away.

Learned our lesson. We now get first row in the 200's section for 40 bucks on stubhub.

Better seats and half the price. Tailgate in the parking lot and we are

The sad irony....Mickey Mouse owner, Mickey Mouse operations, Mickey Mouse promotion and you ens up with rat ****.
"clearly it's Rick DiPietro's stupidity that's put the islanders in this situation getting into an altercation when a game was over..." Keith Jones on VS

"But the Coliseum became a repository for all the team's troubles, a convenient scapegoat. There were suggestions that no major free agent ever would set foot in such a decrepit place. We have two words for anyone making that argument: Fenway Park. History says free agents would play in an old boxcar if they got enough money and had a chance to win." - Mark Herrmann
