Excluding boxes that is about 8000 dollars a seat. I’m not sure if that is realistic or not. How much does a flames home game bring in ticket sales 2 million ????
How are you getting $8000?

150 000 000 / 41 home games / 19 000 seats = $192.55 average seat cost for the Flames to generate $150 million in ticket sales.

Which is still relatively high, but the facility fee is supposed to be also collected from Hitmen, Roughneck, and other non CSEC commercial events (i.e. concerts) which I think is part of the projected $150 million. So it is plausible IMO.
