Well I'm on the wait list and haven't gotten the call yet. And I don't live in WNY.
But the reason is because buying and reselling season tickets shouldn't be a money making scheme. It should be an option for dedicated fans that honestly want to go to 30-40 games a year. I have no sympathy for a STH complaining about not being able to 'unload games.' That's not the purpose, IMO.
What a crock. Even with splitting the games with my dad and brother (I get a toal of 13 or 14 games) I still have conflicts that come up. Three of my kids have jobs and I coach hockey. Its close to impossible to not run into conflicts where at least two family member aren't free to go to the game. It got worse this year with the afternoon games due to coaching and my kids working many Sat/Sun afternoons. I guess I'm not a dedicated fan since I want to at least get back my money back if I can't make a game.
You'd be hard pressed to find many STH that make 30+ games a year. Its too expensive.
I'd rather have less STH generally once they're good, but I know that's not a realistic option. Also, an increase in STH price can help keep down the price of single game tickets, which I'm much more concern about.
What on earth are basing this on? The cheaper the season tickets the cheaper the STH will sell their tickets to unload them if they can't make a game. The more the ST price the more a STH will want to charge to get their money back. And single game seats are based on the variable pricing system. So with more of them for sale it means less ST on Stubhub at the lower ST price. I have no idea why you think higher season ticket prices with less STHs will lead to lower single game tickets.
