I'd agree with this, as it (rightly or wrongly) is a part of how I frame my stance on the new arena. I have a pretty good job, but Flames tickets are not affordable now, and I don't expect they'll be cheaper with the new arena - so what incentive do I have to back (or fund) the Flames proposed project?
