Can you believe this insanity?!?!?

Good luck trying to get this thing to work next season. I could see me and a big crowd of people revolting our way through if they actually think that this will actually fly.

The marketing inside the arena has already gotten revolting enough, every instance of the game and every sq foot is sponsored

bfg,

that is uncalled for. what is next , if you dont want to buy a beer or pepsi, putting a quarter slot on the drinking fountains???? LOL

 

[TheTimm]

Wow. I would simply stop going to games.

You watch.. I betcha someone comes up with an HD Enableing fee next :devil:

It's a discriminatory practice since not all people own a vehicle. This "penalty" does not pass the litmus test. This owner should do the fans a big favor and shoot himself.

This owner should do the fans a big favor and shoot himself.

Or an even bigger favor for the fans: Charge his players a "Wake up" Fee.

 

[Mr Tony]

so if you dont park in their parking lot for $15 they charge you $5?
what the hell are they thinking??

Oh my god....hopefully the DECC in Duluth doesn't implement this for UMD hockey games. You can park in the lot for $3 but alot of us park in the nearby ramps for free and walk through the skyway. Plus there are 4 or 5 hotels attached to it so people staying in the hotel just walk to the game

Best quote of the article...
"We've been watching this situation for the last 12 to 16 months,"

What were they watching before the lockout was settled? They've only been playing 6 months, what an A-hole.

And to think, I just saw an article with the Tampa Bay Lightning owner, talking about how he has decided to make parking FREE for Lightning games !!!!

If you drive a car I'll Tax the street.
If you take a walk
I 'll tax your feet!!!

Just be glad I don't take it all.
Taxman!!!

If major league baseball did this they couldn't get any fans!!! Look how many parks there are where the buses just dump the fans at the exits!!!

No bus routes to the Panthers games?
