Holy Jumping Toledo, this is wild, the Upper End Zone Section 53 is now flying (end zone opposite the scoreboard), up to Row E. This is crazy. And this is just vs. Edmonton. What happens for the WF? Are we headed for 40 plus just for an October game?

these tickets are going for $ 26 a pop so it's a good move by the Lions; just goes to show you, when the price is right and reasonable, people will gobble them up :rockin:

What is the first row in the upper bowl? Does it start at A? And 120db, where did you find this out?

This is what I'm wondering, if he's one of those "gobbling up" the cheap tickets... since he's so concerned about attendance all the time.

My man 120db wouldn't buy seats to drive up sales - empty seats do not generate noise. Only bona fide ticket sales work to his advantage. He wants the barn packed, not papered.

Before you expend too much energy knocking me about "attendance", just remember the owner David Braley needs revenue to pay the salaries of all of your favorite Lion players.

No butts in the seats, no revenue, and thus the team is not able to afford to acquire and keep the best players.

What you seem to fail to realize is that revenue is important to the future success of the club. I wanna see the best players, and that costs money. Not a lot of revenue is generated through Television; this is a gate-driven league. Butts in seats drive a lot of revenue for the club.

Remember that the next time you knock me

Thank you for that, Captain Obvious :roll:

Endless whining about attendance isn't gonna do anything to put butts in the seats or create noise.

Don't forget those three little letters, "SMS". Doesn't matter if there are 60,000 fans at $100 a head every night, Bobby's only allowed to spend a certain amount on players.
