$13 Thursday ticket promotion.
I'd love to be able to do a social experiment on whether promotions like that do anything to the overall attendance. Impossible with ticketmaster in placxe but i'd guess that almost everyone walking up would just want a ticket no matter the price and a very small amount would know to even ask about a $13 ticket promotion.
Still waiting to see anything original and unique coming out of the business and marketing side of things. You'd think with constant turnover in those areas that you'd see some new things, something a little bold, something new....But you can be sure we're only 4-6 weeks out from someone in management talking about poor ticket sales and how it has to be on the community to support the team.

Once with her 2 kids and once by ourselves. Tonight will be our 3rd game and we decided to take the kids tonight as well strictly because of the promotions. For me, its a great thing to have for families. Otherwise, we probably wouldnt be going if we had the kids. |

Does the 3 games in 4 days force you to pick one or do the discounts help you get to multiple games? The path is there for hardcore fans not wanting to season commitment to get to many games below the standard price. The numbers just say there's a limited fan base to get out to the games right now. |

Impossible with ticketmaster in placxe but i'd guess that almost everyone walking up would just want a ticket no matter the price and a very small amount would know to even ask about a $13 ticket promotion. Do you have to ask specifically to get the $13 ticket? If so, that's pretty lame. The last home game the Sea Dogs had they offered $9 tickets for all. The previous weekend saw crowds of 2266 and 2236 but with the $9 tickets they had 1,200 more for the one game. |

Ticketmaster has a weird setup with it...Seniors tickets are still $19 but 18+ is $13...so I would assume they'd just give everyone the $13 but its been many years since I bought a physical ticket from a box office. |

I will even be a pissed off fan for once - that first period was beyond pathetic and it’s legit on the veterans here. Squires rotten -2 and takes a penalty down a man - Biggar -3 and effort wise looked like he was not interested. These guys with letters on the jerseys have to step up and take control here. Can’t be starting the game after 20minutes and down 3

Roelens is huge out there , he would be a huge 20 pick up , Couturier got to be looking at him , he was an eagle draft pick but could end up back here if the price was right .1st period was absolutely brutal for eagles

The path is there for hardcore fans not wanting to season commitment to get to many games below the standard price. The numbers just say there's a limited fan base to get out to the games right now. thats the problem with scheduling. No matter what it only allows us to go to one of those games. Unless we decide to go to a 2nd game without the kids for the $13 deal. I had season tickets for 5 years when i was 18 but cannot afford it anymore/dont have the time to go to all of them. I just go whenever i can now and just follow online to the games i cant make it to. The prices of tickets nowadays just prices the avg person/family out of being able to go to alot of games. And that really isnt on the eagles, its on the league as a whole where tickets are on par with the entire league from my understanding. |

Can’t be starting the game after 20minutes and down 3 Could easily be 6-7/0 right now if not for a broken stick at the end of the first. This is unacceptable on all levels from behind the bench just accepting the effort from the guys on the ice. Milota was hung out to dry multiple times by the guys in front of him. |

I honestly don't even know what the fuck I'm watching right now. 6-2 game with 5-7 minutes left and we have the net empty like that's going to make a fucking difference. What a slap in the face.
