Not sure about that. Our institution schedules classes 8-6 all weekdays. In fact, I have a 3-6 class I teach on Fridays.

Its remarkable really that there is no info on this yet.

If you go to their web page and click single game tickets, it just redirects you to the team schedule.

18 days out and nary a word of pricing to attend that game.

Complete and utter bush league.

If it helps, I had emailed my ticket rep as I am not able to manage my Wrangler tickets yet. (I split the season with another CPer.) He told me the ticketing team was putting the finishing touches on the season etc. They will be active October 3rd.

So whatever that means exactly. My guess is they are holding off to try and get as many STHs as possible?

It's really not.

Season ticket packages only came out 10 days ago, and the seat selection event was 5 days ago.

Single game tickets are always the last shoe to drop for these things. Hell in some sports single game tickets don't go on sale until the week before the game (this is how it was for Soccer tickets in Europe).

Yep and their focus is to get STHs not single games attendees. I believe the deadline for Flames STHers to use the promotion for Wrangler tickets is Oct 8th. Individual ticket option will come out after that I am sure.

My guess is the majority of single game tickets sold this season will be ‘walk up’.

The problem is that the season ticket packages came out just 10 days ago.

If they had come out 3 weeks earlier, all deadlines could have been pushed up accordingly.

I was just curious to see what the STH sold seat situation was looking like and it appears the link for STH to purchase is no longer valid… perhaps they can still purchase if they call the team?

Looks like you have to do it like before. However this time put a 3rd star package into your cart. Then just before you finalize checkout cancel and it will spit you out.

Looks like they have also added 1/2 season packages, but those are more than I paid for the full season.
I paid $210 with tax per seat for the season, a half season adult is $438.

I just tried to buy 2 Wrangler season tickets while logged onto our season ticket holders account. It shows 2022-23 Wranglers 1st Star Season Ticket Package but when I click "select" it starts to load the seating chart and then comes up with an error saying "This event is currently not on sale. Unfortunately this event is no longer available."

Wow they dont make this easy.

They've done a good job making the price almost a no-brainer for Flames STH's, but Im thinking they're setting themselves up for failure. Flames STHs by and large already have 41 games to go to (or tickets to deal with), adding a whole other tranch of games is going to just lead to a tonne of unused tickets each game.

Maybe that's their plan (to get them all sold but less used) but I forsee this impacting the atmosphere quite a bit.

Single game tickets are on sale. It looks like all tickets are $35.74 after fees and taxes.

Also, it appears there are no tickets available in the upper deck, which doesn't really make sense. Unless they have some way of tarping the seats off, I'm not sure how they can prevent people from sitting up there. Personally, I find the first ten rows of the upper bowl to be preferable to anywhere else in the building, especially lower bowl behind the nets.

They can prevent people from sitting there my roping off the entrances and kicking anyone who sits there out.

They want the Saddledome to look fuller, so no need to have the upper deck used. Plus, that way they don't need to staff it.

And I agree, I find the first 5 or so rows of the second deck the best seats in the house.

The problem with that theory is it won't make the building look fuller. If anything, it would look better if they didn't sell the lower bowl behind the nets and instead sold the second level between the blue lines. That would look fuller to the players on the ice.

Also, if they have to have staff tasked with stopping people from sitting up there, they're not saving any labour costs anyway.

The Hitmen are doing this as well. Not worth the cost of staffing the second level for 75 total fans.

It also appears the home opener have discounted seats. $22 after fees

They will block off access. if anyone sits there, they will send someone there to kick them out of the building. There won't be any additional staff needed.
