Calling Out All Spurs Fans Attending Game 6!!!!

[Nolazach]

san antonio is like the 27th largest metro area...and i seem to remember NO having a hard time selling out games until everyone realized the hornets weren't going to suck this year

Yeah you right, but seeing that it looked like our owner wanted to move to OKC, it was hard to want to support his pockets. The product was great though and eventually fans came back, and we added many more fans.

Yeah we had a game this year with only 9,200 people and that is sad. still think its much worse not to sell out your playoff games.

I already have tickets for the next nine possible playoff games.

Yeah and we have very little corporate sponsorship too. We had an ambulance chaser sponsor the rally rags in the first series, Bud sponsor it in game two vs you guys. The shirts were sponsored by the local Casino last game, and Toyota at game one. I know you all have tons of big companies that could stand up and sponsors promotions, just seems like so many people just expect to go all the way, that there isn't much support before the finals.

We also get posters, Peja heads, noisemakers, and yard signs and decals when we leave. Mad props to our promotions team

Nice. We get 46 % ticket price increases. At least they did away with that awful start up music.


*** I'm wearing my lucky T-shirt tonight. Its not a Spurs shirt either. How about calling out the Spurs ? Calling them out to play like Champions and play for all 4 quarters ? I'd like to see that tonight.

I'll be leaving from Austin shortly...got 4 tickets and don't even know where they are but I'll be yelling

the crowd doesnt seem to be that much into a game unless it's do or die for the spurs...

i thought the game 3 crowd was 2x better than the game 4 crowd.

i'm expecting it to be a very energized crowd tonight.

It used to be that way in SA. Every business in town had 'Go Spurs Go' on their signs outside or in their windows - even houses had them in the yards. You couldn't drive safely for all the Spurs flags flying down the the highway - huge ones standing upright in the back of pickup trucks. People even dyed their damn dogs black and silver during the playoffs!

Now I think we're used to it and we don't pay attention until the Big Games roll around. It's sad and frustrating because the Spurs deserve so much better than they're getting around here.

It is kind of sad but they do sell out, it just takes till gameday to do it. Everyone buys tickets at the last minute.

Actually, I am jealous because I would love to be able to score Laker tix at the last minute.

I actually lucked out and got Game 1 tix vs Utah because TM strangely released some about 24 hours before the game......but as far as I can tell they didn't release any for Game 2 or 5.

Keeping my eye open for Game 7 (assuming NBA will ensure a Game 7 with another officiating debacle in Utah)
