Also curiious....theoretically lets say we are number one seed and the HL tourney final is ours. Would the HL allow that game to be played in the Klotsche Center?? Would be the height of irony if that game was forced to the Arena (unless unavaialbel due to Barney on Ice or something), or would we be at the Resch Center in Green Bay??

Can I purchase a parking pass with my season tickets for guaranteed parking in the PAV?
What will the cost be for season seats...
I knew something was up. It's almost July and nothing in the mail about season-tickets for the 2012-13 season.
I bet the prices will be in three price groups. Floor seats, chairbacks and bleacher seats. I would think the prices would be in the same ballpark as in the Cell.
I did said back in June, that ticket prices would be the same. I guess some don't want to listen.

What's the point of this post beyond declaring that you were correct? I for one hoped the powers that be would recognize that they're no longer selling the same D1 basketball experience, and ticket prices would reflect this serious downgrade. Maintaining the same price structure was enough to convince the other three in my group that this is no longer worth the price of admission. To be clear, I'm ok with paying what I'll pay for a year in the KC, but that's only because I'll watch this team play on a tennis court. Most aren't that committed. Bottom line, they're selling a different product to the alums, students, and general fans that have been attending for years. To not recognize this fact even a little bit in the ticket price is somewhat insulting. |

The point is, it shouldn't come to a shock that the prices are the same. It's not like they ask us to pay alot of money for season-tickets. We talking about $16 to $5 per seat/game. Plus, thay are offering free parking passes.

Steve, I'm pretty certain that we will be able to host the conference tournament finals at the Klotsche Center (probably a moot point this year) as part of the waiver granted by the league.
Meanwhile, I'm rather shocked that no adjustments were made with the season-ticket pricing structure, given the colossal downgrade from our former facility to our current one.
Having said that, I'll continue to attend even if they move games to Engelmann Gym. But I'm not exactly the entertainment-starved, short-attention-span, Johnny Come Lately fan.

It doesn't get any worse then playing in a high school gym. When people say the season ticket fee is so affordable, then why do they still charge for single game tix, if we're getting such a great deal. Because they're making money anyway we want to put it. I probably won't see anymore mascot games in the kc  |

One of the major reasons to bringn it back to the kc is to address financial shortfalls.
They probably need to keep the ticket prices where they are, since they were losing so much money before. If they cut the prices, they would not get the savings overall that they need. With the prices remaining the same, they have some chance of of positive future outcome.

I showed the seating chart and prices to my son, and he said "Dad, maybe we should do something other than Panther games this year." We will still get two season tickets this season and see how the experience plays out. If it looks promising we will be back. If not, my son likely will not return for games and we will be down to a single season ticket for the following year, and who knows what will happen after that.
As with all things in sports winning can cure a lot of things. If the team can win and perform well people will fill the seats.
I have one group of friends who actually will attend more games at the KC simply as an excuse to get back to the East side.

Well, I got my renewal for my season tickets yesterday, and I don't think it's going to happen. It's a two hour drive, I have a kid now, and most importantly, the person I normally go to games with has lost interest in attending Panther games (returning to the KC was the final straw, I'd imagine). I would love to casually attend a game or two, but being outside of Milwaukee makes that very impractical.
I hope the team does very well and a concrete plan for a new arena is finalized, so some enthusiasm can return to this program. It's hard being a Panther fan when literally no one you know cares. Maybe I'll buy them anyway and just try to go to a few games.

Best bet for now is to put in a kids zone and try to attract families.

To those considering dropping their tickets (and judging by those to whom I've spoken, there are many), might I suggest a downgrade?

They are adding 300 chairbacks seats in O, N, M & L. Those season-tickets are only $175, which is $11.66 per game. Some of you could seat at center court!!
Before anyone make there choice, it's important to go to the Open House.
