Oct 21st, 2013: Redblacks Announce Ticket Prices

And the masses pronounced it good.

This is hardly breaking news, since it is two days old you've likely heard about it by now.  I do want to preserve it for future reference though (it will be interesting to look back at it a few years down the road) and underscore a couple of things.

I wanted to sit with a friend, but he bought his ticket well before I did.  Long story short, the ticket staff is making it possible for us to make our selections at the same time next week.  That's quality service and a far cry from my experience with the Renegades who did not respond to my enquiry about group purchases and who inadvertently double-sold seats during their $100 sale.

The prices are very competitive.  Compared against that of the Alouettes, for example, who price the middle sections of their stadium at between $94 and $97, the Redblacks offer the same location at $87 and change.  And about half the stadium seats sell at less than $40 per game. That's pretty accessible.  Well done.
