Invoice for playoff tickets


MadHatter

Recommended Posts

Just received the invoice for playoff tickets. Gotta pay for two games...game 1 and NFC Championship Game.

30% markup for game 1 and about 140% markup for the championship game.

 

LOL.... on my long drive yesterday to visit family this week this was a conversation had in the car with the wife that we are going to have about a $400 bill for playoff tickets we will need to add to our upcoming expenses.  I guess it showed up sooner than I thought.  

 

Its ok with me though - I am more than happy to have to buy playoff tickets!!!!!  Now all we need is the Panthers to cooperate and make it that we actually get to use both of them   B)

You have to purchase them as a PSL owner, otherwise you may forfeit your right to your PSLs. Right before the holidays, timing is always great thanks to the NFL.

 

And should the Panthers not make the playoffs you do not get a refund. Rather, the team credits this toward next year's tickets... lol... So they are basically taking the PSL owners' money and collecting the interest off it for at least 7 months before next year's invoice comes due.

 

I'd be willing to bet the NFL does not report this as part of their revenue stream.

I can go to any game I want, sit anywhere I want, and if I'm unable to go to a game I'm not stuck with the tickets.

You're never "stuck" with tickets. You can actually sell them and make a profit, or donate them. The difference is when you go to games your usually paying for one ticket what we've paid for 4 or more.

By "stuck" I meant you would have to sell them or eat the cost.  It's the hassle of the whole thing.  I never pay more than face.  It takes time to find them but I always do.  For what its worth WC row is the best seat in the house and I've sat everywhere.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
