Now not sure if I am discussing this in the right area, but just going to anyway. I am to the point like many with the Mooseheads that we can put up with them losing, but its how much the organization (owners etc) charge for the actual poor unappealing product they deliver. I went to the last CB vs Moose game. I got semi crappy seats that i got on a cumbersome website that charged me an extra $4 to get those seats. Wow I thought getting tickets on-line should be cheaper as you don't have to pay a person to sit behind a window. So $36 for 2 tickets to hear the same damn music I have been hearing for 10 years, and to make it worse they now even play commercials on the Jumbo Tron. Commercials are used for T.V to pay for people not actually paying for the event. During a TV time out I want to be entertained not watching a commercial. Also looking at their gift shop they want 300 plus dollars for a Jersey. That is crazy, you would expect those prices at an NHL game. They are surely pricing out the average Nova Scotian family. Now I am not the only person who feels the product is getting worse many STH feel the same. Listen to them rant about their Christmas cards, and how half the STH haven't even got theirs. Or listen to FredtheMoose discuss how weak the freebies are for STH. In closing I know people will say well if you don't like it don't go. And yes thats what I will be doing for the rest of this year anyways. Maybe I will have cooled down this summer. Losing me is not a huge deal. But there will come a point when the Organization loses 2 or 3 thousand of me and than they will be talking about moving or selling the team. Only time will tell. Hey 101 - a few points..... You paid extra for your tickets so you didn't have to stand in line at the Metro Centre with the un-washed masses - your choice entirely. If you were unaware they would cost a couple of bucks more that's on you. Regarding the music - they had Gord Fader playing the *organ* at the game you mention - retro, and a nice touch. So enough bleating about the 'same old music'. Ad's on the big screen - I don't recall many, but I'm having a beer chatting with my friends between periods, so perhaps I haven't noticed. Hardly seems like an enormous issue though - lots of Moose footage being played before the game and during stoppages in play. Price of sweaters = $300 ($50 off for STH). Perhaps a bit high, but not far off the going rate for a quality jersey - t-shirts for you maybe? Christmas Card mix-ups - yes, for sure these cards are #1 in my decision to renew my tickets or not; give me a break..... You are a dweeb and personally, I hope you stay home in the future. My $0.02..... |
