I blame Flames sales & marketing, not the fans. The pricing is simply too high.

$600+ for lower bowl seats is ludicrous. Flames owners should donate some of that cash to helping Nepal. Just a thought.

I'm hoping the C of Red can lift our team tonight! They get one back and this become a much different series. Kind of disappointed I'll be missing it tonight to go and count votes, but not that I'm hugely superstitious or anything but I had to work and missed game 6 vs the Canucks and we got the right result so here's hoping this proves similar tonight! lol
Go Flames Go! Get one game back boys!

Very surprised to see so many seats available for the game tonight. The prices are completely crazy, though.
For upper 2nd level tickets, some dinner and a couple drinks, you're looking at $700 for two people.

I see lots going for under face and even under season ticket holder price (kijiji, Facebook, TikTiks etc...), sad really, has everyone given up on the Flames?

Yeah the Flames thought we'd pay whatever they want us to pay.
I'm happy the fans set the precedent that they did today. We won't blindly pay prices that are just not warranted.

LOL, I guarantee if the Flames won 1 or 2 of the games in Anaheim this game would easily have been sold out.
It wasn't just that the Flames lost, it was the way they lost.

Yeah like I said in the other thread. The series has had pretty much zero entertainment value for Flames fans so far.

That's a bit of gauging by the Flames in terms of ticket prices. Those seem like Conference Finals prices. Not 2nd round.

Maybe....but I'm still betting that the fact that its an election day (many people working late/voting late), the tax filing deadline (many more people working late and having late appointments, myself included) probably made declining insanely expensive tickets (which I had to) a bit easier.
Its a perfect storm.

just checked, it's shocking, and really really disappointing. Hope management sees that they can't just charge whatever they'd like

Especially when a lot of people have recently either lost their jobs or taken reductions in pay or hours. Not that there isnt still money in this town, but its not as disposable as it used to be.
