WpgMikos 17 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 This is crazy. Watching the game online. Saw some pictures and it looks empty. For more pictures, Where is everyone? It's too bad since it was a pretty good game. Thought Jovo put the OT goal in off his glove, but meh. If Jovo scores in OT but nobody is there to see it, does it count as a goal?

TheWestWing 71 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 Whics is really a a shame since they finally are getting better with a real coach. Being on the LeftCoast I watch most of their games. They really do have some young, raw talent mixed in nicely with some journeyman. May be starting to gel a bit. But it's early. Still, nice to see the Yotes coming around.

zetterdawg 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 How about the fact that they charge an ass-ton for tickets.

As Darren Pang would say "Holy Jumpin" $700 for 2 tickets is crazy. Im going to the game in Denver next week and there is 5 of us all together and the cost was $650 for 5 tickets!!! I I think the price was $130 a piece! Im not sure what the finance charges were, but I will know when I get there!! Im sure that Arena will be sold out next Thursday when the Wings are in town!!

Bet you could buy tickets at the door for $15-$20 and move down beside the glass. It really is sad because the argument is "if they had a good team" people would come. Now it was only 1 game (and perhaps Tuesday nights are a tough draw) so it should be interesting to see how they do for the next few. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buppy 1,720 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 I wouldn't pay $700 for two seats on the bench at a Coyotes game. Wouldn't pay that for two seats at every Coyotes game, for that matter. Maybe that's why they're losing so much money. Can't charge Ferrari prices for Kia product. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 With the League still running Phoenix, the clever marketing is still flowing; from TSN : Looking to fill seats, the beleaguered Phoenix Coyotes are offering free tickets. The NHL team unveiled a promotion Friday that will see it give away tickets if it wins on certain nights. The first such game comes on Oct. 24 against Los Angeles -- one of five this season that includes a Dec. 5 game against Ottawa. The Coyotes have labelled the promotion "join the pack" and hope it strengthens the relationship between the organization and its fans. ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
