If you’re not filling most of the building with paid tickets and having the fans spending money at the concessions, you’re not generating enough revenue for the team to break even. There may well be value in giving hockey tickets to casino customers – but not 18,000 tickets per night, 41 nights a year. The technique cannot be scaled up to infinity.
