In this game there is a planned protest by fans against the high ticket prices. Let's see if anything will be seen from tv or will the Finnish Hockey Godfather Kummola black it out.

This game's tickets costs beginning with 37 eur (Highest 56 eur) so fans will come when the prices are moderate...so far selling looks good but we'll see how many comes to the arena at 12:15 local time.

Go France!

Well luckily they will still have their voices and hopefully will use them.

But whatever happens, hopefully we will also see an entertaining game and have a good atmosphere

 

[QnebO]

Game has sodl very good because of prices.. Sure I hope there is protest, but I hope theres some families just coming for fun as the price is low.. To eat some sausage and watch some exotic hockey (that can be entertaining because the teams can be moderately even) at arena

I hope kummola would see that if he lowers the prices of non-finland games, he will earn good atmosphere to all games as Finland is full of hockey fans. But when games like Belarus - France cost 70e at lowest, its no suprise its empty.

 

[saintflannel]

How are they protesting? Is no one going to show up?

A large group of Finnish hockey fans are going to show up. They're going to be yelling slogans etc. to protest high ticket prices in WC 2012, hoping next year the tickets will be cheaper. And of course, they are going to root and chant for the teams in this game. The point of the protest is that with lower ticket prices people will show up to watch some hockey.

Just came home after partying the whole night. Sitting on the sofa with the breakfast and my computer on my knees, looking at the TV. Hope team France is in a better shape than me and didn't Radulov'ed.

That's good then. It'd be a shame for the French and Kazakhstani if no one came. Still, the good seats for this game are $73 CAD. Ridiculous.

Whatever. The message has been sent anyways. The hockey world knows how badly the FIHF and the SIHA have ****ed things up.
