A very interesting way to get season ticket holders, don't ya think? Also funny is that if they get the 6th pick the people have to pay more AND watch brook lopez.

Wow. That's certainly one way to stimulate interest in the team.

Same. Itd be worth a gamble for season tickets that cheap.

im too stupid to understand it

You pay 43 dollars. If the Wolves get the 1st pick, your 43 dollars pay for season tickets.

and 2nd pick is $86, 3rd is $129, 4th is $172, 5th is $215, 6th is $258, still at the absolute worst they're relatively cheap compared to the knicks

i assume that they're at the ends of the upper level, where most teams charge $10 a game. also remember that in a town where hockey is the most popular sport, there's ample opportunity to move to better seats

That deal is insane a little over 40 dollars if they get the #1 pick, for the entire season?! That's less than some single games for some teams. I don't care how terrible they are I couldn't turn down that deal if I was a T-wolves fan.

Ridiculous.

It is a very unbelievable deal for a fan, but I am sure you will have some 35 dollar parking fee...

That's actually a pretty shrewd marketing move by the TWolves.

the target center is'nt bad, it's a run of the mill, basic arena built around 94 with ok sightlines. basically like amway or the united center.
