Poorly Planned - Need a better ticket structure
by TurdNugget on 1/27/14Xcel Energy Center - Saint PaulGames were great, venue was great, here's the bad: -Bought tickets 6 weeks in advance. Best available at that time were on club level but lower level was only 1/4 filled for 3 of 4 games. Lower level was 2/3 full for final game but I think it's because everyone just started moving to better seats. For the number of empty seats it should have just been general admission. That's what it turned into anyway. -Stupid to have on this same weekend as winter carnival parade, roller derby, cat show, etc.... St. Paul either has nothing going on or lots of things at once. Parade had west 7th shut down so it was hard to even get to parking ramps or street parking. Parking was available, you just couldn't get to it. If you didn't know to take the back way in via Shepard Road you were screwed.
