[Benjamin]

Monoraail

Monorail + petting zoo = double the money

 

[EJsens1]

a partridge in a pear tree - Bryan Murray
Christ our savior - Matt Kassiam + Mark Methot


AND MANY MORE!!!!!!!

I would pay good money to listen to this actually

How about free parking for a car with 4 or more people inside?

It could solve a few problems.

Over-congestion of the parking lot. It means a bit less money in the org's pocket from parking revenue, but it could help curb everyone's issue with getting in and out of there.

Same thing goes for general traffic getting to and leaving the game.

The cost of losing that extra parking revenue per car could be offset by more people drinking at the game, or groups of 2/3 recruiting extra friends to join them and buy a ticket.

You could get some positive publicity calling it a 'green' initiative, maybe?

I bet it would be a net positive for the club. Probably not enough to make a real difference though.

This!

Nah, the focus is (and has to be) on families.
So, this plan has 2 strikes against it:
* More drunk people;
* Having to take public transit.

Trade Spezza!

Sell Spezza!

I could see Melnyk funding an expedition to the lost city of Atlantis for some of their gold

that's absurd when he could just have Alan Quartermain take him to the Lost City of Gold, which has already been found.

With what Karlsson tweeted, we're never going to get Bell as a corporate partner.

 

[Smitty26]

raise money to what avail? he puts the money into his other company(s) and continues to neglect the senators lol

 

[BK201]

i asked some of the brightest minds from the history channel to help us on this quest this is what they came up with

 

[Qward]

Create a boy band with Karlson, Pageau, Conacher

 

[Iconoclast]

Create a boy band with Karlson, Pageau, Conacher

I am in extreme support of this idea as long as Karlsson is the lead singer. I'd pay good money to hear that accent in a cheesy boy band pop hit.

 

[Harbinger]

Bunny Ranch?

 

[Filatov2Kovalev2Bonk]

Create a boy band with Karlsson, Pageau, Conacher

Replace Conacher with DaCosta or Cowen and I'm in. Cowen could just wear a suit and shuffle dance around, occasionally say "Uh huh, Uh huh" or "Baby...yeah babeeeee" and it'd be a hit.

This actually a really good idea. Z-Bad needs to be part of it too.

Would buy on iTunes

Trade Spezza!

Best idea yet

Seeing as the provincial government just gave MLSE $500,000 to host the NBA all-star game, I say Euge buys up more teams on the stipulation that we can host an all-star game. Can-Am league All-Star game in Ottawa should pocket Melnyk a cool $1.50.

How about a JP Barry dunk tank?

Did the province give any money to Melnyk when he had the All-star game?

Apparently yes.

"The same ministry gave just $100,000 to the Ottawa Senators Hockey Club to help it host the 2012 NHL all-star game, a team official told the Citizen"

As well as the city.

"The City of Ottawa, meanwhile, showed much more enthusiasm for the event, kicking in up to a maximum of $200,000 in support and in-kind services, according to minutes from the Feb. 10, 2010 council meeting."

The difference being I believe, that the money Ottawa got was actually to help host. The $500 000 was just for the "bid" which is why some are confused/upset...

We didn't have to pay Drake's entourage

"We need to build more of a following around the Raptors. What else do black people like?" "uhhh rap music?" "I think you are onto something Wallace!"
