2010 Ticket Prices Going Up


Section 505

Recommended Posts

Just checked my account online and the invioce has been posted. And yup, after all the salary purging over the last week, Jerry is raising ticket prices.

Overall its a small increase. My seats are the cheapest in the house. Last year they were $38 each, now in 2010 they will be $39 each.

Now before you say "How can Jerry do that?" with the economy, and releasing players and not signing any. Don't forget that in 2002, after the Panthers went 1-15, Jerry raised ticket prices. He'll do it whenever he feels like it.

The Panthers are offering a payment plan for the first time this year:

That really does concern me....it's not like we are the Steelers or Packers where there is a 25-30 year waiting list to get a seat....there are ALOT of empty seats at every home game. Charlotte is a small market with a high unemployment rate....keep raising the price of tickets Jerry and you are gonna price the true fans right out. :mad:

This is one major disadvantages of having a stadium full of 90% PSL. Those people are either forced to buy the tickets at the price set, or lose their PSL. Well Jerry can pretty much set the price where he wants within some sort of reason, and people will pay.

My tickets went up a total of 6% when prices for everything else is coming down in this economy. Must be nice to be an NFL owner.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
