I’m not sure of the situation in Detroit. Do they bump-up the prices to season ticket holders for playoff tickets? If so, what is the premium that they get per ticket?

Just a general comment. Philadelphia used to be a rabid hockey town back before the new arena got build. Now the ticket prices are so high that you attract the more sedate, late-arriving, corporate crowd. That’s pretty much the case in any NHL/NBA town.

Ain't that the truth. Whereas the standing-room ticket holders arrive more than a hour early to claim their spots.

No place for that in sport, anymore, so the arenas have to pump in crowd noise over the loudspeaker system.
