News Article: Bruins offer free concessions at January home games

Huge gesture by jj. Gotta tip my miserable ******* cap to him for this. If there was free beer i'd request him for saint hood.

 

[RunFromTheBear]

I wonder if the food items will be from a limited menu... 1 free pass for popcorn, 1 for hot dog, 1 for small soda

 

[Looch]

Props to Jacobs for stepping up with pro shop discounts and free food.


On another note, (I have to stay true to myself and ***** about him at least a little ) I'm a bit pissed that season ticket holders are not getting hard tickets this year of any kind. I like to save the tickets of games I attend. I really like ticket memorabilia. Printing out a piece of paper for the whole season with no keep sake sucks.

There is probably somewhere around 12k season tickets. The tickets are unique so it is probably a little pricey to print, let's say $10 per seat. That's $120k. Plus priority shipping would be another few dollars per STH.

There are 5 home games in January. 17k people will get 3 free items that probably cost somewhere around $.50 each. This comes out to $127.5k.

One is essentially paying for the other.

Sad...but true.

I'm sure they will be refunding us all back our $15 s/h fee though.

 

[Greyhounds]

Better get there 4 hours early, to line up for a free burger.

 

[Gee Wally]

I think all free food should be donated to Dougie.
Kid is a walking bag of bones.

Still 20 bucks. For four games, 18000 people...that's not half bad considering the owner's history

This is Boston, the drunkest city in the U.S, the Garden would run dry in an instant.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

who the hell would eat there?

 

[WickedBruinsGirl]

He should make a sign "free beer tomorrow" to be amusing.

I hope ice cream is included in free food for DKH's sake.

That kiddie ice cream is up there with a bag of cape cod chips and the personal pizzas as the best deals in the garden.

It probably costs him less than $1.00 total for those three items. It's better than nothing.

 

[RunFromTheBear]

If its the same as today, it is a free hot dog, free popcorn and free soda

 

[BB624]

very true, still, they could have atleast provided a voucher for one free beer... that's about all i grab when i go anyways. I usually just tape nips to my chest.

Illegal in the state of Massachusetts

The vouchers will be valid for three food or beverage items, including: hot dog, sausage sandwich, slice of pizza, healthy wrap (turkey, Greek or chicken Caesar), jumbo home-cooked meatball, peanuts, popcorn, fountain beverage.

 

[ODAAT]

5 home tilts, no idea what the TD rakes in for concession dollar per game but that seems like a significant giveaway
