The Dome was built with 31 boxes, and added 41 more in 1994/95. So yes, the Flames had a ton of luxury boxes throughout our darkest years.
And doubt the attendance all you want, the Flames worst year was 1999-00, at 14,946. Second worst was 01-02 at 15,705, and every other year of our non-playoff seasons between 16,200 and 17,089. Winnipeg's high water mark was 13,620 in 1984-85, and they averaged below 13k for 8 of their 17 seasons in the NHL.
