Re: Boston University - 2017-2018 season - thread numero uno
The seats are sold. When I went on line on Thursday I had trouble finding 4 together, so I think the issue is with hockey PR. Comparing Ice Hockey to any other sport at BU is ridiculous, volleyball? Please! Do you know the kind of donations and gifts that are made to the hockey program? BU is a 5 time national champion in NCAA hockey and has walls lined with the names of some of the best players ever to lace up skates and play in the NHL, with to many Olympians to even count. Nearly the Yankees of NCAA Hockey! I paid $100 for 4 tix in a Me plus 3 deal and another 10 to park and 40 on food and for $150 bucks you cant find a better value in live sports entertainment in this nation unless you purchase the tix next week at Matthews for $15 each and get free parking. The fact is hockey is expensive, the cost of the electricity needed to make the ice, maintain the equipment, the arena and pay the insurance policy for catastrophic injury is likely several million. Thus Tic prices can't be less expensive. I think the issue is this Jack Parker made hockey at BU a priority not only for the administration but for the student body as well. You are a good team and numbers are down, but BU won't be down for long and those stands will fill up again, I guarantee it. Nice win for us tonight I wont gloat but lets face it, really hardly ever happens so I will enjoy it and if you want to see an empty barn come to Matthews next week. LOL!Last edited by RossiRules; 11-04-2017, 10:54 PM.

Worcester echl hockey (a higher level than ncaa. maybe 1/2 of the guys dressed last night can play at this level. maybe more. just look at last year's roster) are 30 ON THE GLASS. 25 low level mid ice. 22 ends where they shoot 2x. rest are 20-17-15. so that is your ceiling. figure it out.
kalamazoo is much much lower, but we can use Worcester since the northeast is a bit higher priced.a legend and an out of work bum look a lot alike, daddy.

How about cheaper parking in the garage ?
Even to skate there on Sundays for Stinkysocks, they charge for parking and the fee is a bit high for a pickup game.NCAA Champs 2012, 2010, 2008, 2001, 1949, Hockey East Tourney Champs 2012 #11, Beanpot Champs 2016

no, NO, insurance policy is a million a year? seriously?
Lots of mathematics here the more people in the house the warmer it gets, also the ice at BU is then covered for concerts and other uses of the venue, this increases the BTU load or the ice melts. And yes the umbrella insurance policy premium for a public multi purpose arena with 7000 seats is easily in the millions in this day and age, it covers the fans, students and spectators from injuries as well as the players, and event staff from everything to slip and falls to any law suit as a result from getting hit with a puck or killed in a terrorist attack. I am an alumni of both BU and NU and I am sure you can find the info thru BU in the annual report.Last edited by RossiRules; 11-05-2017, 01:30 AM.
