Actually this is where you're wrong. And also where things are different from the 90s where they actually did tape up the PL seating (what they then called the nose bleeds). All of that PL seating is bought and paid for by groups like Coop/Sportscheck/Etc. Those groups then in turn sell to their customers for a discounted price whether those seats get filled or not 85% of them are paid for. So, just because you dont see butts in the seat doesn't mean they're not sold out. And if the problem is a perceptual thing - why aren't we seeing the butts in their seats the Flames should really be asking some hard questions: like is their in game entertainment stale. I personally have been a seasons holder for the past 10 years and I Find myself going to less games every year because frankly its just not fun anymore. The team is good. I dont have a problem with the team but going to the dome, paying 8$ for ####ty beer and hearing the same dumb song and watching the same dumb intermission games they were doing in the 90s is getting kinda boring. Time to overhaul the game day entertainment staff and come up with something new. I too recently attended a game in Vegas and loved it. It was entertaining. Calgary needs to freshen things up. But they don't care because people, myself, admittedly, continue to pay for their tickets even if they don't go to the games anymore. I've seriously considered selling my seasons or letting them go. Its been a serious conversation I've had to consider.
