I’d say there is a subset of the market who are somewhat fair weather. Anyone who has tried to sell tickets knows this. There was a time where selling tickets at full face value was simple but in recent years it’s been tough to give tickets away and that’s here on CP which has the most rabid Flames fans. We’re not seeing nightly sellouts, and I would expect the marketing team is doing what it can to get more fans to attend the game. You and I aren’t the issue, but the people who might attend a couple games a year.
