The seats that have higher value but the same price as the rest of the sections are the first two rows in any color and aisle seats.

Best value in the dome are Oranges as you can probably tell from this tread.
Row 1 of Black are by far the best value. Those are worth at least double what the Flames sell them for.

I don't think so. Lots of times during the season I have to dump them below cost. Especially for week night games.

I can understand some inequity in a pre-digital age, but the value difference from row 20 to 11 is extreme.
Just as extreme is when a row in the Red2 is one or two rows ahead of orange. cf. 203-207

$5157.96 Red2
$2546.64 Orange

Hopefully in a new building, in a digital age, the step functions used should be more refined resulting in smaller ledges.
It would create too much STH issues if the Flames transitioned before relocating to a new building.

Would it be too much of a paradigm shift, to have different price categories ramped from row to row?
If not every row, group the rows by something like three?

And in long rows, charge more for pairs of seats on an aisle?

I was surprised that the Oilers did not revamp the pricing philosophy. Looking at the pricing structure for their new arena, it is the same old same old.

I moved from Row 22 to Row 21 in 227...whoop dee do.

They had three seats in Row 16...but I couldn't have them because it would leave a single seat unoccupied. Even though Section 225 was full of only single seats.

But that's what I get for being picky...wanted to stay in that area and not move into the corners.

It's surprising that they are undervalued on the resale market. IMO, they are by far the best.

Those 3 on row 16 were there during my session as well on the 30th, and it was frustrating not being able to grab them. That and the logout fiasco that cost me a row in the end.....

I had an issue with TM and had to get it reset and log back in too.
Lucky enough to still get the ones I wanted though.

Congrats my friend, that's awesome. When you get that email to say you're in, it's so cool. Best of luck and let us know how you make out.

I received the same email so I think everyone on the list got it. I don't think it means you're guaranteed to get tickets. I think everyone gets a slot. If there are still tickets available when you're up, then you get tickets. I'm #992 and hoping a ton of people pass on tickets this year. I'm bracing for a decision between golds and nothing.

I thought they only make enough offers based on how many seats are available. I'm guessing there was a lot of cancelations this year.

Just signed up for Hothouse membership this afternoon at the Dome. CS rep was helpful and indicated approx. 1,300 currently on the seasonal ticket wait list. Said offers hadn't been made to Hothouse members yet but implied they were imminent. Good luck to all those ahead of me in the line - I'll be shocked if I get offered anything for this coming season.

The hot house card you would have received on the original packaged last year will have the priority number

Depends what orange. In my section I'm green and row 17. If I go one row in front of me to row 16, I'd change to orange and my cost goes up by 39%. Maybe that's worth it to go from green row 26 to orange row 13, but so not worth it for one row.

Lucky! I'm 10 am Wednesday the 29th... Do you think there is there a chance I don't get any? is there no guarantee even if you get the offer email? Really crossing my fingers.

Do they really send out more invites than there are tickets?
