I don't see why fans should be able to sell their tickets for a profit
How incredibly un-American of you.

The Canucks which of course isn't America allows you to sell them but you have to use ticket master to do it. That would be controlling the price I guess. Interesting they bring up community
. In a statement to CityNews, the Canucks say, “Our goal with season ticket memberships is to create a sense of community and allow fans to attend as many games as possible.”

I don't know if it's diehards as much as it's community, same fans sitting together week after week.

At best, they should be allowed to return their tickets to the team for individual games they don't plan to attend then split with the team whatever amount the team can make re-selling them.

Yeah, that seems what the Canucks are saying. They revoked a guys season tickets that had them for 35 years for selling them through a broker.

So, in your opinion, with the money it takes to not only have the tickets, but to go to games...if they do this, the fans that show up are going to be of the loud variety that screamed all game long? You can ignore the money part of it all you want, but they priced out those die hard fans that were taking Monday off from work because they couldn't talk!
So, in my opinion, people that are hanging onto seahawk season tickets as a sort of elitist stock, with the perk that you get to go to whatever game you want, if they are good that year, and the weather is good, and the open market isn't so high that you'd rather have the money, shouldn't be able to renew next year. I have no idea if the person in line for season tickets will yell a lot or not, but they can't be worse than a 49ers fan.

The retarded price of things is actually a separate subject. You really shouldn't be holding season tickets if you can't afford it.
I say this as a poor person.

I know I'm a dip shit sentimentalist, but the 12s did affect the Rams game and the defense did play better.
I think some of the 12s heard the criticizm.
I think the Rams don't really have the same kind of fan base as the 9ers and Bills.

That's probably true, are you referring to traveling fans?
