I was Ticat HQ on Jarvis today picking up some tickets. The Cats offered season ticket holders the opportunity to buy seats in sections 6 and 8 (silver, North side, upper deck) for $10. Talking to the staff there today around 4 pm, apparently there was only singles left in section 6 (how about that, actual reporting by Tigercatatonia). Considering the game is on Monday at 4:30, it makes me wonder if the Cats could not have sold those tickets for $15 or even $17.50 rather than $10. I predict a massive move over to section 7.
There's also some Scotiabank promotion on for bronze seating in section 5, also for $10. When I asked about section 5, it seemed to be mostly filled, apart from nosebleeds and at the far west end. So it looks like the Cats have effectively papered the joint to get a good crowd on Monday. Hopefully the Cats know what they are doing in terms of devaluing their product. Admittedly, people probably spend around $10 on average on concessions and merchandise, but $10 tickets seems like to little to get that additional $10.
