Ya that's the problem. $25 is not enough revenue for MLSE. They can sell those seats at an average way higher than that. For the Sens $25 is good enough.

And the younger demographic that would actually be willing to chant won't pay $80 a game or whatever.

Maybe just the upper bowl behind the basket could go for $25+ and you'd have a decent section. At least something 10x better than anywhere in the NBA.


Thing is MLSE will say why would we sell seats for cheaper than market value when the atmosphere is already one of the best in the NBA. I think the upper corner would be a good place to do it as those are the worst seats and you wouldn't be obstructing anyone's view. Its difficult to do though cuz you will have people buy those seats to re-sell them at a higher price to make money.
the rowdy supporters section is outside, in jurassic park. Or, anywhere in the Pistons arena.

That chant tho. It sounded like a continuation of what he was doing with kids in Kenya in Open Gym S.3 E.1
For lease.

That would be awesome having a sold out ACC sing that every game.

Just so you know, that's because you saw advertisements for we the north that were "anfry and intense". Markeating 101. Whoever is head of marketing of Raptors is doing his or her job.

right… but it also makes sense… singing we the north like it was a mary poplins song wouldn't give it the same effect...
