Sell Out Ivor Wynne (A NEW MOVEMENT)

Hamilton Tiger-Cats
1

Below our the CFL attendance stats. In average we rank 7th in attendance and we're only bringing in about 4,000 more people at our games then the Argos... Having said that we did also have a game in Moncton that dropped our average, but thats besides point. We should aim to be like Sask. Winnipeg, Calgary Etc.. Ivor Wynne Stadium can hold just over 30,000 on a sell out. The games would certainty have a more intense feel to them and the players would love the atnosphere. Anyways, I plan to start a website called selloutivorwynne.com during this off season and I think we should all get involved and promote our team and try to pack the house in Ivor Wynne's last year. Whos with me??

Being the last season at the old Ivor Wynne, you can count me in. I'm getting seasons tickets for next year. Win or lose, I love this team and am ready to support them.

3

We have a great nucleus of young players and experience and this team will be better next year for sure.

Wow, Calgary didn't even sell 10,000 for preseason game? That is crazy, I know it's preseason and all, but still expect about double that! I sure hope you guys can sell out a few games next year, I'm surprised you guys don't sell out though. You guys seem to have a lot of fans, or at least a lot on this forum, so I thought it would transmit to more going to games.

I'm with ya man. I make it a point to hustle up at least 2 ticket sales to every game during the season but i usually get more. The sweet deals we get as STH's on extra tickets makes it an easy sell. All my buddies know I'm the guy when they need tickets.

If every fan worked to sell two more seats each game we would sell out every game. And your efforts don't go unrecognized by the team either. I was rewarded this year as the Citizen of the Game. Someone is chosen for each game. I received an Avon Cobourne jersey, met Mark Homminick and Sam Stout on the sidelines and we all participated in the opening Oskee Wee Wee. Did I mention 6 months of free Pizza Pizza? Pretty sweet deal if you ask me.

8) It doesn't work that way around here "roughride" !! 
  I would venture to say that a majority of fans on this site don't even bother going to the games here !!   <!-- s:oops: -->:oops:<!-- s:oops: -->

It was the same day as Game 7 in the Stanley Cup… the Vancouver Riots and all…

That's sad, you guys seem like you have a lot of good fans, you guys sure make a lot of noise for not having a packed house. The Ticats seem like they just have to go after the casual fans a little more. I don't know if it's cause you guys are so close to the US border, and many people follow the NFL instead, or if the ticket prices are a little high, but I think with some good marketing you guys should be able to raise your average up closer to 30K. I think once your team starts fielding above .500 teams that should also help, you guys went through some dark times not too long ago, and are starting to slowly build your way back. Even in Riderville this year, after making it to back-to-back GCs by the end of the year there was somewhere just over 20,000 people at the games. Although paid ticket count was a lot higher then that. Hope we don't go through a long drought of bad teams, or Sask will be in some big trouble as we seem to have a lot of fans who are just here to support the winning teams.

And I did not know that was the same night, that explains A LOT!
