Buffalo Sabres an Organization that Knows how to Treat Loyal Fans

Hats off to Buffalo Owners. I mean it I wish your way of treating the most loyal fans was shared by the owners here in Raleigh North Carolina home of the Carolina Hurricanes.

Too bad the ownership of the Carolina Hurricanes couldnt be as smart as the Buffalo Ownership. CHeck out this article about ticket sales and pricing in Buffalo. Now that is an organization that knows how to get people behind them.

“Quinn’s plan: radically slash prices for season-ticket holders and variably price all other tickets for different games. The Sabres also maintained the discounts for season-ticket holders in the first two rounds of the playoffs this year, with a slight increase in prices for the Eastern Conference finals that’s in stark contrast to the hefty price raise made by the Hurricanes that stunned and angered some of their fans.

For example, season-ticket holders pay $17 for seats in the 300 Level III in the upper deck at HSBC Arena during the regular season. For the Eastern Conference finals, the average price is $20 per ticket.” WOW! Those Seats are around $60 Each here for season ticket holders and 70+ at the gate. That is one way to inflate Raleigh Real Estate
Once again its says “Thank you Fans” on the Ice In Raleigh, translate that to F U fans.
