I was a young'un and relied on my dad getting those tickets, which he got from a business contact.

Since my adult life I didn't attend many games after the renovations. Once every two or three years, because in my early adult life I just couldn't afford to go. Then I married a hot chick with a well paying job and I have been to a minimum of one game per year. At first I just bought in the PL. I only attended games in PL from 2005 to about 2010. Then for the 2011/12 season I bought a small share of season tickets off of a friend who couldn't afford all of the games. Section 228. The next year I bought seats in the 2nd tier only and went to a couple of games. Then last year I bought a 3 game pack in the PL zone. This year I bought only in the 2nd level and the last game was tier 2, 4th row. Best seats of my adult life. Awesome.

I've been spoiled and try to avoid PL seating, but I'll still prefer to go to a game and wouldn't hesitate picking PL seats unless it was a regular season game against a team like Carolina. PL seats have to be for a team worth watching like Crosby, Chicago or a rival such as Edmonton or Vancouver.... actually, I've had bad experiences with Vancouver fans, so I won't go to a game when Vancouver is in town.

The terrorists have won?
