Seems exactly like last year. This is the point of maximum supply, everybody has their tickets in hand and selling every game. Then December hits and everybody wants to see hockey and spend with the family when it's freezing out. And then January comes around and all of a sudden there's no tickets left for anything and prices shoot up. Next playoffs and insane prices and everyone forgets the low beginning of the year prices and we do it all over again the following October.
But yes, right now many are focussed on the Mets
But it can't get any worse than for the Islanders. Saturday night and there's 1300 unsold tickets with 20 minutes to go. There's a guy that dropped a quarter million dollars on 6 glass seats and he can't give them away. There's no takers above $200 for $1000 seats and he ends up eating about 4 seats per game. Prices don't matter for them, there's just not enough fans to watch in Brooklyn. It's great for hockey fans in NYC, sit wherever you want and name your price
That's hilarious. What kind of fool would buy $1,000 tickets (particularly for the Islanders) if he didn't plan on using them for business or personal use? lol
