Thread: Have you spoken with your ticket rep yet?

  1. #1

    Have you spoken with your ticket rep yet?

    I spoke with mine today and it was great. He basically asked if I knew about the price in tickets dropping (which I did), and asked if we could speak in person. I said name the time, and he gave me two free lower bowl tickets for tomorrow nights game vs the Pistons. While it is the Pistons, the tickets are free, and I am saving $80+ depending on where they are.

    I am thinking about going lower bowl for next season, (I have been upper this season, and its not as enjoyable as the times I have been down low). Where do you other guys sit, so I can annoy you during games?
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    I got club seats from a ticket rep earlier this year, hopefully yours are similar.

    I don't have season tickets, though I'm thinking about getting two for next season.

    My mom does a lot of business with one of the reps because she puts together a few group sales every season and the rep said if we wanted we could come pick them up in person and he'd give us two tickets to the Milwaukee game earlier this year.

    I think I'm going to try and get like weekend court side passes.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    That's gotta be expensive huh? I want to get season tickets but I was put off by the prices this year. $500+ for 12 game package in terrace is kind of pricey

    You can almost get a whole season for that price now.

    Ha, I've gotten one single game upgrade and one invite to a sales pitch (to purchase more tickets) in a suite in 10 years.

    That's absurd. Call your rep and tell them that. If you're not courtside pretty much asap I'd demand a new rep.

    When I was buying tickets in the lower bowl corner (row 16 I think) I was getting either one or two seating upgrades each year.

    Agreed. Cheap, close, and you actually get on stuff like dance cam if you want to. It makes the entire experience more fun.

    My rep a few years ago gave me 4 court side seats and a parking pass, since then I haven't received one upgrade. Due to the ticket prices going down we are considering moving over a few sections to the club level. I'm sure as soon as the Hornets start winning ticket prices will skyrocket.

    Same here. I have not had season tickets in several years but even last year they gave me four tickets to the hub club.

    I don't get the upgrades and sales pitches either, but my rep knows me, knows I'm solid. What they do is work with me to add seats in my area.

    I now have 6 seats together in row 1 in the upper corner. This not an easy task to achieve, considering the number of seats by me is 2, or 4 if you count pairs (I do). Those are really the only other seats in the Arena that interest me.

    Still, I would think if I needed some better seats here and there, then I would get the hookup. I'll report if that is ever falsified.

    My season ticket rep gave me plenty of free Club Tickets this season. I would just go to the games and hold a regular convo with him and all of a sudden he would be like " How many you got?" I would tell him the number and he would just pull the tickets out and say have fun.

    Really? I have never been courtside (even in the days when the Dan Dickau days when there were reports of courtside seats being given to season ticket holders on a nightly basis just to fill seats).

    Probably trying to draw you back in. As I have been a ticket holder since day 1, they probably assume they do not have to "kiss up" as much. They seem to take the longer tenured ticket holders for granted sometimes (like the Saints do now that there are waiting lists). Heck. the last time a ticket rep from the Saints even called me was when Benson formed the original VooDoo AFL team and they were asking me to buy season tickets for that team.

    There probably is some truth to that though.
