Ticket prices

ticket rep? my new one won't return a call

I have not heard a thing. they seem to raise them 5-10% every year so nothing would surprise me, but just over 16,000 fans a night (90% capacity) and a pretty flat local economy for the rest of 2008 would not seem to go a long way towards supporting that. not to mention they haven't come close to spending the full salary cap to be able to justify it to fans.

it seems much too early to announce pricing for next year anyway so this seems just like an unsubstantiated rumor at this point. unless you hear anything solid Rich

Why is this such a surprise.
Why are people bitter.

Something has to be done to pay for Dumbardi free agent sign ups - I mean F__k ups.

I see them advertising for deposits but my rep mentioned nothing nor has he ask for my deposit for next year. I for one would like to know a price before I gave a non refundable deposit for next year.
If there was ever a year not to raise prices, this would be it.

Here is a novel concept. Play the kids and lower the prices. It can't get
worse than finishing 30th
and they may play with more
enthusiasm. Quit signing non-impact FA's to high
contracts with NTC's just to fool the fans into
thinking you are doing
something. Yeah, Anthony
you called it F-ups. The
only FA that was half way decent got traded for a DP.
That must be a new genius strategy to rebuild a team-
sign a bunch of mediocre
FA's in the offseason and
then try to move them for
draft picks at the trade
deadline. Too bad nobody
wanted Preissing or Handzus
or DL could have 20 picks this year.

My ticket rep gave me a price for the full season and it looks like it was around $5 more per ticket than this year.

I pay enough.

Regarding ticket reps, Jasmin Matthews is gone isn't she?

I'm not sure why everyone is complaining about the seat prices. I've had season seats for 15 years and for the past 5 years, my seats haven't gone up more than 3 dollars.

"Regarding ticket reps, Jasmin Matthews is gone isn't she?"

Not sure, I had her for the last 3-4 years and haven't talked to her but that's probably a record for longevity and wouldn't be surprised she couldn't take it anymore.

I was planning to buy fewer games anyway, so anything for next year is savings to me. forget the half season I'll just watch 'em on TV. too many weekdays

Jasmine is gone. My new rep. is a young lady named Shawn Beckham.

Everyone's complaining about prices because they are too steep. The worst seat in Staples is around $30 bucks! That's fine for the celebrities here but this is not a winning franchise like New Jersey where they can charge that much and get away with it.

Just to confirm....didn't DL sign Ersberg as a FREE AGENT?

That question was asked and answered at the GM breakfast. The Kings are 26th in ticket prices, and they are the 30th best team. There are no plans to raise prices at this time, but the following year....

"My new rep. is a young lady named Shawn Beckham."

cool, maybe I'll get a call one of these days... does she at least have a sexy English accent?

LOL
