Herr Hockey 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 Is there any solid information or reasoning to think that the Joe will or will not sell out during the playoffs this year? I just checked Ticketmaster and I could still purchase game 1 tickets in the upper bowl (already have ). Kind of worries me seeing that they are still available. We have sold out some regular season games though, so I don't see why the playoffs would go without being sold out. Whats your 2¢ents? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingMachine91 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 now that everyone will know exactly when game 1 is and against who, im sure we will sell out. plus they are pretty cheap. thers still plenty of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OsGOD 3 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 (edited) Wingnut22, Penaltyshot_96 and I will be there for game 1.... Maybe a few more non-sell out seasons and the $22 will be a mere $30 for the first round instead of $40... A 2x markup for the first round... Awesome!!!

Jwo 7 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 (edited) Ticketmaster has the cheapest ticket priced at $40. In Nashville, the cheapest is $25 This is just wrong Edited April 6, 2008 by Jwo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cirov19 1 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 I'm pretty sure that lately the only time Detroit has been worthy of the Hockeytown title is in playoffs. I am hoping they sell out and Detroit can continue their reign as Hockeytown. Please sell out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 Wingnut22, Penaltyshot_96 and I will be there for game 1.... Awesome! Did you guys purchase tickets online get em in person? I know online it's a ridiculous $6 or so fee extra for each ticket.

My Dad wants to get 6 tickets for my sis, him, myself and three cousins and I think the cheapest would be great! lol Lauren bought them online... so we got hit with ticketbastard charge. Going down would be the best choice as there are no stupid fees, its a flat $40.... although we got lower bowl so it was a tad more... one time deal might as well go big Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

red and white forever 10 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 i would love to be able to make it to a playoff game, but living on the west coast it's a little difficult, so i urge any fans that are within distance to make it to the joe. there's nothing worse than witnessing a half empty joe at playoff time, especially when our team sits atop of the league........GO WINGS GO BABY!!!!!

But I have beec saving up so I can go to a playoff game! and I couldnt be more excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herr Hockey 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 I wouldn't say I worry about it, but seeing playoff hockey at the Joe is supposed to be more than just watching an important hockey game. I was never able to go to something like game 7 of the WCF in 2002, but I would really like to be able to experience the intensity of a pumped sellout crowd at the Joe.

As stated, if they sell out, they will. If they won't, they won't. It has little to do with the hockey team I think and more to do with the economy/stuff being expensive et al. That being said, I have a free round trip flight through Southwest Airlines. I doubt I can get a day off of work on short notice for next weekend's game, especially since I took some personal time off this week, but (don't take this as a "jinx" or whatever else superstitious, I'm not that kinda person) if the Wings go to the next round, I might go to one of the weekend games then.
