now sons I know we all like to have fun and games on this board, but this is pathetic

[BRHornet45]

The Spurs have the best record in the NBA right now and still can't get decent fan support. there are thousands upon thousands of tickets for upcoming games starting at .39 cents and most under $5.00. they're basically having to give blocks of tickets away in order to make the arena look full. if the Spurs were a bottom feeding team then this would be understandable, but considering they have the best record in the NBA it is downright pathetic. I feel for the players who are out there busting their ass and putting a quality product on the floor only to have to give away tickets damn near for free in order to fill the place up. don't worry though, the Spur fan front runners do show up when the big name teams are in town (where likely half of the arena will be visiting team fans and jerseys). that "big game" tickets start at the staggering price of $17.00.

son I haven't posted about this in quite sometime and its only with the Spurs that its even a story. I was honestly shocked last year during the playoffs to see just how pitiful the demand and fan support is in San Antonio. I didn't expect it again this year considering the Spurs have the best record in the NBA. its obvious that both the Spurs organization and big businesses in the San Antonio area are buying out blocks of tickets and basically giving them away on sites like Stubhub in order to attempt to fill the place up.

BR does this schtick all the time. as for our ticket prices, when a large percentage of your population would rather watch telenovelas and feed their 10 kids, you gotta lower prices to bring them in.

ok son I'll play your game. lets take away the front runner game from each (OKC for Spurs, MIA for Pelicans)


Average starting ticket price for those 8 games ...



New Orleans Pelicans (21-39) - $3.00

San Antonio Spurs (46-14) - 2.52



is that something you really want to brag about? the Pelicans are a lottery team and the Spurs have the best record in the NBA. plus our front runner game tickets with the Heat start at $80. the Spurs front runner game tickets with the Thunder start at $17. this isn't about the Pelicans vs the Spurs, but I'll expose the facts when you ask for them. The Spurs have the lowest demand for tickets out of any of the legit playoff teams in the NBA.

It is a schtick if you keep making threads about the same thing.

If you feel happy that the Pelicans have higher ticket prices, good for you son.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

lol, some seats are horrible in the AT&T center which would explain why the starting price is so cheap. What you show proves nothing, of course nosebleeders are cheap for an team except for BIG games

[Ellsworth]

So that means the Pelicans & most others are doing much better than the Spurs:wakeup

nonsense.

I haven't made a thread about ticket prices since the playoffs last year. it is news and certainly shocking to see, but no one wants to talk about it because its the Spurs. everyone loves to rag on the Heat for using white towels to cover up their empty seats during the playoffs, but turn the other cheek to the Spurs pathetic fan support. if the Lakers fan support was this bad then it would be front page news every day on this board. is it also schtick when the same 3 dozen posters make multiple Kobe threads on here as well?

you are confused my friend.

thank you for being the first Spur fan to understand this post. everything has to be ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK! instead of talking about the issue at hand. why do you think the demand for Spurs tickets is so low in San Antonio? this clearly isn't anything new as they were struggling to fill the arena last year during the playoffs as well. they always seem to get most of the arena filled, but having to give away blocks of tickets like this is pretty unusual for successful teams in the NBA.

[Juggity]

I mean, their strategy of lower ticket prices seems to be working since they have the 11th best attendance in the league despite being small-market.

If only all teams could be so generous to their fans.

a family of four could attend a Spurs game for cheaper than you could get a soda at the concession stand in any NBA arena.

yea I mean its unbelievable really. I feel for the season ticket holders who got screwed into paying those prices whenever they could get them insanely cheaper just buying game by game.

it looks like all of the .39 cent tickets are sold out for tonight though. the cheapest tickets went up to .50 cents for tonight's game. there are also still thousands of quality tickets still available including tons of them in the upper level center of the court starting at $1.00 with most falling around the $1.00-$5.00 range. the lower level tickets are starting around $18.

Beats me, tbh. I would expect NOs price tix to be right there with SA if not lower, especially since Louisiana is much bigger on the Saints and Tigers.

Man, I usually respect your truthful aspects when it comes to things that matters, you know, skill level and points taken from the games but caring about ticket prices? More importantly, another team's ticket prices? Come on bro, you're talking shit about another team having affordable cheap tickets? :lol Yes, we all want to be unable to see our teams play because the ticket prices are too expensive, yeah

[Mori Chu]

LOL @ $0.65 ticket for Magic vs. Hornets game.

[Malice]

Obviously ticket prices directly effect the success of a team. Hi LA LA land! And some how they still continue to be a model franchise, teams try to emulate, not just in the NBA, but other sports as well. Maybe they're on to something here? Ever think of that?

[siraulo23]

I dunno why spurs fans are upset. BR just speaking the truth

[weebo]

The Spurs are a small market team playing in a state with 2 other NBA teams... so obviously their fan base will be a lot smaller (hence the lower ticket prices) . Its not like the shit-hole state the pelicants play in where the only time those fans get to see NBA action is when the other team comes to town.

[PingPong]

The hollywood people pay way more than the texans farmers. That's why the L.A. mexicans can afford more expensive tickets than the San Antônio ones.

I could careless about the ticket prices, but it is newsworthy that the team with the best record in the NBA has such a low demand for tickets.

The AT&T center isn't in a particularly great part of town either.

Beyond the Spurs games, there's literally no reason to be over there unless you live in the section 8 housing down the road. There are only so many people willing to go to a basketball game for the basketball. A lot of people looking for other attractions close by as much as the game itself might find arenas in other cities more attractive due to proximity to such things.

The spurs are a good team, though. They sell out their playoff games (when ticket prices are much more expensive) and important reg. season games.

[KaiRMD1]

Son, I'm not attacking you, I'm just saying this is not really that big a deal but obviously it is to you so my apologies since it looks like I hurt your feelings and you took my reply as an attack. Go on, care about the ticket prices, I'll worry about other things like winning games. I'll buy a nice row of cheap seats in the process when I'm done in San Antonio come April and thank you in the process for giving me the heads up :tu

san antonio isn't as much of a basketball city even as the big D imho, and san antonio doesn't have any other major league sports team like cowboys or texans tbh. san antonians would rather save the $ for a piece of fat taco imho

their playoff games last year were dirt cheap as well.

regardless the AT&T Center is a beautiful arena. very good game experience for fans.

[BRHornet45]

Go on, care about the ticket prices

you're not listening. I could careless about the ticket prices. however it is newsworthy and odd that such a good team with the best record in the NBA has such a low demand for tickets. they struggled with this last season too even during the playoffs. who knows just how long this has been the norm in San Antonio?

I bet if they put an MLS team in San Antonio then most people there would forget about the Spurs more so than they already have. MLS would thrive in San Antonio IMO.

NFL, MLB, or NHL? not so much.

[KaiRMD1]

Actually, it's "you're not reading" but whatever, the thing is you brought this up last year. If it happened last season and during the playoffs as well, why is it so odd now? Why do you believe things should have changed for the most boring team in the NBA? The team that gets the least amount of press? Also, what website is that? Stubhub? A site known for selling cheaper tickets than norm? It's more newsworthy if the AT&T center was selling tickets that cheap. But it is good to know that somebody who isn't a fan of the Spurs considers it newsworthy while Spurs fans care about other things. And again, not an attack.

[EVAY]

I'll tell you why, from my perspective as a former season ticket holder for 13 seasons. First, in the Alamodome, the tickets were quite inexpensive even for good seats. Then, they made Holt and company happy by underwriting an expensive new arena is a dicey part of town that is not easy to get to, especially in the earlier AT&T years when I-10 was constantly under construction and the drive from the northwest side of San Antonio to the Southeast side (where the Arena is) was a good solid hour through contraction-laden rush hour traffice.

In the new arena, the lower section tickets required not only a huge price increase for a per game ticket, but they also required that anyone who wanted to pay for a lower level seat had to 'BUY' the seat, (called a charter seat), only salable if you gave up your season tickets to someone else and could convince that person to buy your 'Charter' for the same or bigger price that you paid.

then they require that in order to buy playoff tickets to your own seats, you have to purchase (all of) them before the all-star break (when you really have no idea if the team is doing well or not). For a lot of years, the team would then wait until the end of the summer before you would get your money back. But in terms of getting your money back, remember that you had to buy playoff tickets before the all-star game, and then you had to buy the next season's tickets before the
playoffs began even, which means that, for people (like me) pay the entire thing in advance, you are really screwed with respect to 'float'. And it was always a sign of lack of respect for us.

Then there was the parking fee, which was considerable, and poor, given what you were paying for premium seats. You could get there 45 minutes in advance but you still couldn't get the best parking because that was always set aside for players and players and staff's families, so there was no end to the amount of times that the team made you feel like you should consider yourself lucky to be allowed to pay in excess of $30K per year in basketball games.

None of the above even begins to account for the mediocre food for which the season ticket holder is supposed to pay premium prices.

At some point, your common sense says "this is far too hard and far too expensive to be treated like I am lucky to be able to pay all of this money to watch Pop play some game that says 'the regular season (which you are paying around $400 per game for) is for shit so I don't care what happens in the regular season I only care what happens in the post season.

That's why we quit and started watching on tv and spending our money on our grandchildren.

[DMC]

Who cares? I wouldn't pay 5 dollars for a court side seat to either Pelicans or Spurs. Why? Because I can watch it on TV and pause or rewind it and don't have to drive to and from the game, and a drink at home doesn't cost 8 dollars.

the Scorpions are not an MLS team. however they do consistently lead the NASL in attendance by far. their stadium's technical "sell out" figure is around 8,000 and the Scorpions constantly average well over that including the highest game attendance in that league's history of over 13,000.

Who cares what the ticket prices start at? Those are going to be for the last row on a angle, I've sat there before, they are terrible seats. I usually sit in the lower level and always buy off ebay or Stubhub. The arena is always full either way so I don't see the problem. If you want to piss away more money than necessary on Pelican tickets just to say you can be my guest. I can afford season tickets to any seat in the house, but I buy select games off Stubhub to save money. The cost of living for everything is cheaper here in SA, people aren't going to spend LA/NY prices for tickets. If you are shocked at how cheap the prices, buy some good tickets, and drive your ass to a game from NO. I've paid $10 for tickets and I've paid over $300 for them. You do realize that all of the tickets on Stubhub have ALREADY been bought at fullprice, owners are just reselling them. Its not going to effect the team or players. :lol

[Roger Freemason Jr.]

Honestly, I don't think BR is trying to insult the Spurs organization, but he's absolutely right. The fanbase is pathetic, they are just a bunch of fat mexicans, who are more dedicated to their bud lights than standing up, getting loud, and rooting for their team. There's no intimidation factor about coming to the AT&T center, obviously other than the Spurs being naturally more comfortable. As a city, and a fan-base, we don't deserve a bottom-feeding team, MUCH LESS one of the best teams in the league.

son God bless you and your family tonight.

this has never been about bashing the Spurs as I have stated numerous times. it just blows my mind that such a top level team has to struggle and basically give away tickets in order to fill the arena up. the simple fact that on any given night I can go to a Spurs game for less than $1.00 is mind blowing.

I am cheap. All you had to do was ask (or aks, depending on how ethnically challenged you are).

[Man In Black]

I don't get it. A company like Stubhub just takes a ticket that was bought at face value and re-sells it. If somebody wants to take a Loss for whatever reason and price it at less than a $1, it's their right. This is America and they can do that.

Also, even though it gives a low price, it's not accurate. I mean look at the Heat game. It says $18 but the lowest right now is $66.


Since I don't live in Texas, I had to buy 2 sets of tickets for Clippers and Heat. And even if I'm sitting in relatively the same area for both games, the price diff between Clippers and Heat is large.

Okay...If it makes BR feel good to talk about the Re-sale ticket market in San Antonio, feel free....but can you post more pics of that one chick with the large milk jugs?

Who cares what the ticket prices start at? Those are going to be for the last row on a angle, I've sat there before, they are terrible seats. I usually sit in the lower level and always buy off ebay or Stubhub. The arena is always full either way so I don't see the problem. If you want to piss away more money than necessary on Pelican tickets just to say you can be my guest. I can afford season tickets to any seat in the house, but I buy select games off Stubhub to save money. The cost of living for everything is cheaper here in SA, people aren't going to spend LA/NY prices for tickets. If you are shocked at how cheap the prices, buy some good tickets, and drive your ass to a game from NO. I've paid $10 for tickets and I've paid over $300 for them. You do realize that all of the tickets on Stubhub have ALREADY been bought at fullprice, owners are just reselling them. Its not going to effect the team or players. :lol

The OP had a response to all the other post but this one.

son God bless you and your family tonight.

this has never been about bashing the Spurs as I have stated numerous times. it just blows my mind that such a top level team has to struggle and basically give away tickets in order to fill the arena up. the simple fact that on any given night I can go to a Spurs game for less than $1.00 is mind blowing.

Read post above.

Honestly, I don't think BR is trying to insult the Spurs organization, but he's absolutely right. The fanbase is pathetic, they are just a bunch of fat mexicans, who are more dedicated to their bud lights than standing up, getting loud, and rooting for their team. There's no intimidation factor about coming to the AT&T center, obviously other than the Spurs being naturally more comfortable. As a city, and a fan-base, we don't deserve a bottom-feeding team, MUCH LESS one of the best teams in the league.

Now this is a 10/10 troll job. Not only did he attack his own team but also the city of San Antonio and its people.

The at&t seats 18,581
The average spurs games has a attendance of 18,385

Women logic not even once.

Only been to one game while living in SA and so far I don't regret going back. The area the arena is built in makes me feel that I'll be stabbed by a sharp chalupa after a loss if rooting for the other team.

son you are extraordinary ignorant. it has been addressed time and time again in this thread. who gives a shit if Stubhub is a second hand site? yes the Spurs sell the seats because its obvious that thousands of tickets are being bought out in blocks by big corporations and likely the Spurs themselves and that is why the same 4 or 5 thousand tickets end up on sites like Stubhub every single game. regardless if the seats are used or not they will be counted as sold because of the corporation buyouts and other buyouts, but that has nothing to do with the point. the POINT is the demand is very low for Spurs tickets dumb dumb. no one is willing to spend money to go to the games hence why there are always thousands of tickets for next to nothing on second hand sites.

pay the fuck attention .... or at least try to.

Curious...if it's obvious...then shouldn't the gentleman from Louisiana be able to procure data that proves it so?

Since it's obvious and all?

[timvp]

In the preseason, timvp and I bought a dozen tickets (because our kids run around a lot and we don't like to bother people - so we buy 12 when we just need 6) for just over a dollar in the lower level.

I know it's preseason, but a dollar for 12 tickets?! :lmao

Love the insults. BR you been fallin off every season. When I join back in 09 you were one of the best trolls on here. Now I guess father time has caught up to you.

So the demand is low but big corporations are buying them out? Again you must be a women with that kind of logic. Also the only games I see with "4 or 5 thousand tickets" are the games in April. No one wants to see POP rest the starters for the playoffs. The Magic, Hawks, Kings, and Wolves are not worth the .99 cents. Again you being a Hornets fan you would appreciate poverty basketball. Spurs fans do not. Put the money in a piggy bank to save up for the playoffs.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the Spurs season.

BR still fails to understand someone paid full ticket prices for those. Stubhub = resellers
