Sorry, there's a push back offer? That makes me angrier at the Flames than the increase did. If there is a push back offer i'll be calling the Flames and asking them why the hell i'm paying the full increase when all I had to do was decline or hold off on renewing to get my price reduced.

What's a push pack/back offer?

I'm assuming they didn't renew yet or declined and the Flames may have went back to them at a lower price. If that happened, good for people for getting a better deal, but if the Flames think they can charge me more for the same seats as another season ticket holder, i'm going to tell them to take their seats and shove them up their ass. They could give me a 50% cut in price and I still wouldn't take them on principle.

They better be refunding all their season tickets holders who have already renewed the difference if this is happening.

I think you're getting riled up for nothing? It sounds like he had some playoff push deal which turned into seasons tickets, not some "push back" offer that you assumed.

[bigbadboss101]

Yes, playoff push pack, not push back! And the price is higher than what you guys would pay. We got playoff tickets and we were hot house members. Now we pay that amount and others who are STH would get the 5% discount. So you are paying lower prices. No need to get upset. I emailed my rep to ask why we are paying more and she explained promptly.

Disagree. I'd like to see where this goes. There's unsubstantiated information, and someone wants to burn the place down. There's no way this won't be entertaining.

With this price increase I guess Ken King will be able to afford that Dr. Ho circulation promoter after all. What a relief.

Not sure about those info sessions? Any good? Kinda like getting the coles notes version from the forum?

They've all been entertaining and informative. Free food and booze is kind of nice. The spread is better in the evening sessions than the lunch ones.

That's why I was asking what it was. Turns out it was just applying playoff money, but saying "Here's my price after a push back offer" without taking it into context with his previous post (which I did) sure sounds like "I pushed back on the price and got them for X".

someone asked, pair in the whites is $6500 and change. Also not happy with the increase, after tabulating how much the increase has been over the last bunch of years. Between the concession increases, and all else its getting tougher for sure. Switching to monthly this time around, used to just do the 4 over the summer, but I have so much else to spend my summer $$ on! I just hope its easier to sell some tickets this coming year!

I think we will do well and ticket should sell better if we have a real goalie. I am at PL and there are empty rows from last year. Even the premium games are not sold out.

For sure, consistency will be key. Most of the sales I had went to people watching the visiting team (sorry all), not many interested in the flames sadly

I think a new dome will get the flames consistent sell outs again. This will give us an enhanced experience, entertainment around the area and better concerts.i am starting to sound like K King as I have been listening to the same message the last 5 years.

I'm not so sure at this point I'd like to know how much that is going to cost me

Agreed. I'm also wondering how much worse my seats will get when they put in a larger lower bowl and an extra level (or two) of box seats.

Your seats will probably get closer to the rink as everyone will be stacked up rather than out. I would be surprised if the sight lines aren't improved for the vast majority of the seats.

Not a chance. The Saddledome lower and 2nd bowl are probably some of the best signtlines in the league. New arenas put you further away because of extra leg room for the expensive seats. It will cost more for further away seats.

I haven't been in that many newer arenas but I don't agree with you. Vancouver has better views.
