Who will go to phoenix games?? 

Post#1 » by DDP » Thu Oct 1, 2009 2:47 am

If you lived in phoenix why on earth would you spend a dollar going to there games this year?
There clearly moving, just a matter of when, you have better sporting options there with the Suns, College, Football. What kind of people will be showing up to there games, the very few hard core fans they have left, and um maybe family?

I could really see there only being several thousand a game, mostly on discounted tickets.

Another reason the NHL seriously needs to get its act together, great product that is terribly run, this team is a laughing stock across North American sports.

And now I know what it's like to make an completely clueless and uneducated post. Nice job, slugger.

Why? No one will go to Coyotes games..They'll be lucky to draw 1/8 arena capacity.

More than half the teams in the league don't sell out every game
