Has there been an instance in the last decade where the prices have not increased?

These are my ideal seats even with the price jump. How long did it take you to get there?

5.6% in Red1, 23.9% since the 2015/16 season. I wish the ticket exchange fees weren't so high it would make it a lot easier to resell tickets.

3.6% increase in whites which is not far off normal inflation. Better than the clowns in city council.

We've been in the greens since the 03-04 season. However we have managed to move two or three times. (Not sure if you can count the move for the 04-05 season.) If you are looking to move to the greens, I'd say camp out at the Dome on your relocation day. Bring your laptop and tether your phone. You will either get lucky, or the staff will get tired of you eating all the donuts.

In a lower tier league...where do they rank worldwide. Flames are at worst a top 20 hockey team on the entire planet and you can see the best players on earth with Flames seasons tickets. Let me know when Messi is playing at Spruce Meadows

Who said anything about the team moving?  Be glad you have a local team you can go to and afford to go to. Not everybody has those luxuries.

After 2014 oil crash the Flames didn't increase STH prices for 1 or 2 seasons.

I don't want to go on a long winded rant here so I'll keep it short: The absolute figurative rape of Canadian markets by Canadian ownership is disgusting. Canadian cities have some of the highest ticket prices and worst in game experience and rewards for season ticket holders. Winnipeg's prices are insane (of course due to the small arena but still) and the season ticket holders are treated like crap by ownership. Same in Calgary.
It's so short sighted and greedy. Canadian owners seem to think that the bad old days of the late 80's and 90's will never come back, low attendance and fan apathy. Well guess what? Keep jacking up the prices to insane levels and we'll see how attendance does in 10 years.

I remember a guy I knew in university writing some big editorial about the Flames ripping people off and how he was going to support the Calgary 88s.

How about Stampeders seasons tickets? You won't see Tom Brady but every 2-3 years you do get to watch a former NFL star that either flamed out or is too old to play in the NFL (Ricky Williams, Chad Johnson, Johnny Manziel  ).
Just ignore the fact that the stadium is more than 50 years old and you have to pee in a portapotty

You can be happy to have the product but still consider the cost vs value relationship.
I can afford a nice car or fancy watch too, doesn't mean I don't care about the price.
Strange philosophy to say you shouldn't care about the price of something and just be happy because you can afford it.
