haha. Not sure I agree with his math about how our market works.

19,000 seats. 45 games. Basically saying each ticket for each game is a separate transaction, meaning the Flames need 850,000 transactions a season. Since we have 1M residents, that makes us a tapped out market.

Now obviously his math doesn't make sense because of STHs who might buy two seats for a whole season thus eating up 90 transactions with 1 transaction. He acknowledges this fact but then pushes on with his 850,000 transaction ideas.
