Miami Heat ticket packages
One of my friends just e-mailed with some of the ticket packages your Miami Heat are offering this season:
Pat Riley Season Ticket Plan
- Exclusive events with the team/players
- 300-level seat locations still available
- Save over $1,000 for a pair of tickets
- From $731 per seat
D. Wade’s Big Name/Big Game Plan
- 20 games, including the Pistons (Opening Night) and the Lakers
- Featured match-ups: Nash, LeBron, Iverson, Dirk, KG, and Durant
- $499 per seat
Shaq’s Weekend Pack
- 11 games, including the Spurs (defending champs) and the Knicks
- Featured match-ups: T-Mac, Yao, Arenas, Kidd, KG, Pierce, and Allen
- $299 per seat
Etc.
You get the idea. But what about us poor people who can’t afford that stuff? How about the following additional packages:
Smush Parker Pack
- 10 games; opposing team must have losing record
- Featured match-ups: Marbury, Pollard, Jones, and hopefully someone will pick up Shawn Bradley
- $100 per seat
Gary Payton’s Senior Pack
- 8 games against teams with an average age of at least 30
- Special rate for fans 55 and older
- Includes a free tube of Super Poligrip
- $80; bring your own wheelchair for seating
Penny’s Nostalgia Pack
- Any game where both Shaq and Wade are “injured” (should be about 10)
- Rony Seikaly will play instead of Shaq
- Tim Hardaway will play instead of Wade
- $50 per seat (in the Miami Arena)
I love the Gary Payton Senior Pack. The free tube of super poligrip will do doubt be a huge draw to older fans.
Reply to Andreayou know what i found out i don’t like about live events? they don’t have instant replay. i went and saw a hockey game, and after a score, i would wait for them to show an intstant replay and i’d miss the next few minutes of actual play. confused the hell out of me.
Reply to chessloserNot only that, the way they show the highlights on the TV make you think the whole game is just packed with impressive plays every minute.
Reply to Allen@Andrea: Do you say that from experience?
@Chessloser: As frustrating as that is, hockey in particular has to be enjoyed in person. It’s perhaps my favorite sport to see live. However, hockey makes for awful TV and marginal radio.
@Allen: That’s why you need to pay more attention to the Golden Oldies.
Reply to DonnieBelieve it or not, the Golden Oldies get more cheers than the regular Heat cheerleaders at every game I’ve been to.
Reply to AllenPeople probably feel sorry for them. The crowd is probably too busy eyeing the dancers (and in some cases, imagining this-and-that) to cheer much. Which ones would you prefer to look at?
