An example he mentions is token holders being able to choose the goal songs for the team by having a token-holder vote.
I think they said they have been doing it with Paris Saint-Germain and either Real Madrid or Athletico Madrid. The idea is that teams with very large followings can monetize those fan relationships with fans all over the world in ways that they couldn't do before, and the most enthusiastic fans can have ways to engage directly with the team in ways they've never had before. I guess with the Flames it could be the same. Maybe Flames fans all over the world getting to choose Huberdeau's goal song, or deciding whether or not blasty should be used for the third jersey etc. and the Flames generating more revenue via monetizing this kind of relationship.
I know there was also a DAO, maybe called LeagueDAO or something, that was doing much more involved fan voting where fans could actually influence the plays being run by their team in their football game. Never saw how that worked in detail, but it's much more extreme than the kind of stuff suggested here.

Sounds like the same thing then. That being said, there's something a little more fungible to this generation of tokens you're describing, but it's still really iffy. I honestly think these NFTs need to be attached to physical memorabilia to really start to work as described.
