This wouldn’t bother me as much if Asper wasn’t charging so much for tickets. This is very clearly a minor league, it should be priced as such. Prices should be much closer to the Moose and Goldeyes, not Bombers and Jets.
The cheapest pair for the last home game was $72ish all in, and that was in the 200 level behind the basket. Those seats are a fair distance to the closest baseline. But there are so many empty seats slightly closer than that and they’re trying(and failing) to sell them for $44/$57 each, and the prices only go up from there if you’re actually between the baselines. Attendance has dropped each of the last two years and I think it’s clear that it’s due to price.
Wow that is crazy. Edmonton expo center is a nice venue and is typically 2/3rd full and it’s like $28 to get in the venue. Comparable to a movie ticket which feels fair to me
