Default Flames Season Ticket Holder Presale

So I just logged in, and is it just me or are these crazy expensive this year for single game tickets? Looked for my buddy who is a huge Montreal fan and its 135 for a pair in row 18 of PL 4. I know it's a premium game, but sheesh. Glad I got season tickets and don't pay door price.

They gave STHs a break by not raising prices so this is probably to re-coup some $$s. I agree. Some insane pricing.

I was able to grab a set of 3 in the offensive orange for some of the premium games. $345 after all their charges.

Is this the same as ticketmaster presale? I'm looking for a single to the home opener, is anyone willing to pass along the presale code? It would be greatly appreciated.

If anyone is willing to share the preseason code that would be appreciated. I need 3 tickets to the home opener. Thanks in advance.

The code is account specific. Plenty of singles all over the place for opening night. Dozens. Probably cheaper to find a single on the secondary market.

Not much left for sets of 3 to the home opener. Other than the back rows of the PL.
Other than that, there is a set of 3 in the lower bowl behind the Flames net 104 row 23, second to last row. Also a set in the upperbowl behind the Flames net as well, row 10 sec 206 so it is WHITE. 204 row 9 as well.

Hey guys - question for you and I figured this was a decent place to post it.

Do season ticket holders pay for pre-season games now?

I was a season ticket holder for seven years and I'm pretty sure the price I paid was the price per regular season seat x 41. The pre-season games were basically throw-ins.

A guy in my office whom I often buy tickets off of is saying he pays regular price for his pre-season games!?!? That can't be...can it?

I really doubt him...because he's not organized and never pays attention to any billing info or anything. Can someone please shed some light? Do you pay full choke, something less or nothing for Pre-Season?

Thanks in Advance!!

Full price for pre-season, even for season ticket holders. No one will give you that price for them, but that's what you have to pay.

Not sure how these guys decide. As a STH, you pay a fixed price for the whole season.

Divide by 41 if you like and you can consider preseason games free and all regular season tix at a certain discount. Divide by 45 and you have a better discount, but have to pay for pre season.

When we sell our tickets, we've always just treated the preseason as free and considered our per-game price as the total cost divided by 41 and gone from there.

That was one benefit of the lockout, no preseason games, so our per-game cost came down quite a bit.

OK - Thanks for the info guys. That makes sense. I think I always did the same...just kinda-sorta divided the cost per seat by 41 and considered the PS free.

Either way, there's no chance I'm buying those seats from my co-worker for anywhere near full price. CP Ticket Exchange will net me tickets to Wednesday for cheap-cheap. Thanks CP!! ;-)
