Default Avison Young Club

Hi, I just lucked out with some corporate tickets for tonight and they have the Avison Young Club tickets on the end. It's been years since I've gotten them. Does this mean I get access to the dinner buffet? If so, how much is it per person?

Thanks

Just figured it out that it's $35 a person, so my question is -- worth the money or just gorge on the junk food?

Much appreciated, there's very little info on the buffet and club itself outside of this forum it seems!

The first rule of the Avison Young club is that you are not supposed to talk about Avison Young club.

I will agree with you though, I was in a 1st level box last week and I had little idea how the whole process works.

Last time I was in the AY club was quite a few years ago. The food (as I recall) was quite good, but I honestly don't know what it's like nowadays. I'm half tempted to just enjoy a few pocketdogs, beers, etc. but I suspect my fiancée may want something a bit more civilized than nachos!

Go to Loungeburger pregame, and get a decent beer and an amazing burger. It's the only way to go.

Loungeburger? No thanks, did that two weeks ago. Burgers weren't bad, but the price along with quantity/quality just didn't add up for me.

Sorry to be a pain, but by mistake I got a ticket which says AV Club on it, I have looked on the Flames website and couldn't find any information, would somebody please be able to explain what it is? What you have to do to get in?
Thanks

Bowvechkin, the Avison Young Club is just a section in the Saddledome. This section comes with extra benefits, such as direct servers for food and beverages and also gives you access to a special restaurant. They will be good seats, you will enjoy it.

Really? I was down there twice and had no idea that option existed, let alone see anyone take advantage of it. Crazy.

There is a fee per order of a buck or two iirc. At least there was last year.

Wow, hard not to see the ushers running up and down the aisles with food and credit card machines.

I agree. I guess not many people in the section I was in took advantage of it.

I don't think there is a fee? I am not 100% sure about this, but I don't think so?
