A friend of mine is an Oiler season ticket holder in the 2nd level of Rexall. His season tickets are nearly double for next season. Games are already too expensive to go to for many people yet tax payers are paying for quite a bit of the arena. They are trying to attract more fans yet they are pricing themselves out of many households.
This is the Oilers that havent made the playoffs in 10 years, what are the Flames prices going to increase by? billionaires own these teams yet they don't want to build a new arena? And people are okay with paying for it for them? Awful.
