Only potential issue I see is that the view from upstairs courtside is much better than the lower bowel ends. Not sure if this will have any major impact on sales though.....
Bottom line we need to get back on the winning track and build some excitement in order to drive numbers up.

Bottom line we need to get back on the winning track and build some excitement in order to drive numbers up. That is the huge issue, if the prices were the same I would absolutely sit in the middle of the upper deck instead of behind the hoop. They are essentially forcing the people who choose to pay to sit in the upper deck into the $70 seats.

So I went to the sneak peek with my son last night. Exploited a lapse of fiscal responsibility and got season tickets for the first time since the Rob Lanier days. My son was beside himself. Doing my best to perpetuate the Saints fan species. May miss a good number of games due to family circumstances/schedules, but at least I'll have great seats for the games that we're able to attend.

How old is your son? My son is 14 years old - he's a fan, but not yet rabid enough for my tastes. I'm working on it.

You got great seats in a great section. Just a few rows up form our group and over slightly. Welcome to the neighborhood!!!

He was already concerned about that as we were walking up to the front of the arena, having remembered it from last year. Awwww, shucks!!

Hope all gets better for you big fan and all others on the board and off who are struggling.
We as in I and my family had a tough 2017 and a much better 2018.
Since we either come from a faith based school or are in support of a faith based school if your on this site, I can only attest that faith and prayer and thanks for the blessings we do have will get you through it all.
It did and always does for me in this tough thing we call life.
When it seems like doors keep closing until you find a right door that opens you realize you may have never gotten to that door(s) if those other doors didn't close before it.
Wish you and all the Siena faithful the best of luck. Go Saints!

The past years do get muddy since I don't remember when the move to the TU center ( not named that ) took place. I/my family have been season ticket holders since either the 76 or 77 year when the team was at the Alumni center. There have been many ups and downs along the way. However all that time there has been a loyal fan base. What has changed I believe is the year round interest brought about by the internet and sites like this one. It has is good and bad points. Everything that happens is looked at under a microscope by people who want nothing more than their Saints to win (not excluding myself ) but not having the necessary information to make some of the judgments they make ( not excluding myself). So we might be a little more gentle with one another. That includes the troll papi who can't be all bad since he is a Red Sox ( including myself). Go Saints. Go Sox

Go Sox +1 And let’s not forget to be gentle with the other highly optimistic troll Indiansaint too.

Per Singelais, Khalil Richard is expected to miss the entire season after suffering a substantial tear to his quad. Pretty sure this means we'll see Georges start from day one
