3000 tickets unsold for MNF opener

[DeathStar]

True on the jags but the bucs used to sell tickets and had huge waiting list until the economy tanked there

Yep. We have different spending priorities now...And sports isn't that high anymore...

Oh well.

overall we fans are much to loyal to organizations that could care less about the plight of the fan. the players and owners want to charge out the nose so they maxim ize an already very profitable enterprise. personally going to a game with the family is just not worth spending over 300 dollars per game for esp for a back to back 7-9 team. Not to mention how our taxpayer dollars usually end up supporting thier already filled pockets. Why the hell should tax payer dollars fund stadiums esp in a climate where a team can be moved at a whim. maybe they should use their record profits to build stadiums

Completely agree with this.

The Dolphins have declared Monday night’s season-opener against the New England Patriots a sellout, ensuring their 102 nd consecutive regular-season game at Sun Life Stadium will be televised.

They said the same thing about movie theaters. They still make record profits every year.

I wonder how many tickets went to the networks and how many Ross had to buy up.

I'm not sure why that matters. Floridians have a much greater opportunity to go to home games than out of towners do. If an out of towner such as myself has the means to come down to a game once or twice a year (which I do), then what is your reaction?

I'd understand it if someone created this thread who's never been to a Dolphins game before. The criticism coming from that sort of person would be un-warranted.

My reaction is that no one on the forums should be telling people to go buy tickets... (and especially someone who goes to only one game per year) Wrong choir to preach to, were all diehards here, meaning if people don't decide to go to the game, it's probably for good reason.

It's very easy to say you will go to a bunch of games if you lived in S. Florida when you live out of state. That's why the majority of the fans that complain about the fans are out of staters. It's easy when you have an excuse not to put your money where your mouth is.
