It’s almost like we shouldn’t vote for nepo babies who had everything handed to them and pretend to sympathize with our actual plight.

Hockey is dumb and sports are dumb and half of America is dumb. Let’s continue the disappointment.

lol. Of course Lundqvist picked Philly. We kept his ass out of so many playoff advancements.

Yea. Take your time. Wait for the perfect shot. It’s not an elimination game or anything.

It’s just increasing profit for them. If you’re gonna get all those advertising dollars and take our tax dollars we should get free or at the least affordable options to watch.

Right? We heavily subsidize them, some operate as “non profits” and don’t pay fair taxes, we pay premium costs for tickets and concessions, we have tons of commercial breaks, they now advertise all over the playing surface and jerseys… and then we are to pay top dollar to watch our teams.

I swear half of American are brainwashed morons. The loyalty to corporations who exploit their tax dollars and disposable income at every opportunity is insane.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Crosby request a trade after being forced to wear these for the playoffs.

I didn’t miss being irrationally angry during pen playoff games. Don’t bother making them if you’re gonna suck hard.

Sloppy passing, not hitting, can’t get any space. Philly is all over them. They gotta find the next level or they’re going down 2.

Maybe we shouldn’t have coasted those last 5-6 games of the season. Team looks out of shape.

It blows my mind we elected this guy who didn’t even live here his entire adult life. Just came and bought his seat.

Nah, it’s alright! It’s exhausting when everything has to suck and be a battle. Attending Pitt games is supposed to be fun. Now I feel like being a loyal ticket holder for 15 years just gets me treated like trash. Also tired of paying more for less, and told to deal with it. Now Pitts doing it.

It’s not my jam. Hard to see the upside for me at least. Hope it works out for others, but I totally get the frustration of people. I’d also assume this increases the mandatory donation amount, too.

I was told endzone to pay the same amount. Otherwise, it goes from $230 to $430.

The one rep that was on here earlier doing a AMA, told me to maintain my current price I’d have to sit in the end-zone. I’m good on that.

Oblongshapes (LetThemEatJeff) @oblongshapes.bsky.social · 29/01/2026
I get the reason, but I dunno. I think they’re going about it wrong. If they can’t sell these seats at $230, they’re gonna sell at $430? You’re just alienating more people. I’m on the fence to renew and leaning towards no.

Oblongshapes (LetThemEatJeff) @oblongshapes.bsky.social · 29/01/2026
I get that. But I can be annoyed that after 15 years in my section I’m going to have to dish out $400 more for a worse viewing experience.

Final complaint. Upper bowl home side between the 30s is usually packed 2/3rds up. No reason to eliminate them.

It would be more palatable if they repriced all sections and had a way to keep you around your people.

I sit in 537. I prefer being up there cause you can watch the whole play develop over the entire field. Moving down isn’t as good of a view, we lose our awesome section, and my ticket price is going to double. Trying to see the upside here…. I was told I can pay the same to sit in the end zone :/

Oblongshapes (LetThemEatJeff) @oblongshapes.bsky.social · 28/01/2026
Yea. It’s a smart move for atmosphere, but it’s executed poorly. Pricing should’ve been adjusted across the whole reseat. You can’t get people in at $230, but you will at $430? 🤔 Been loyal for 15 years. Good luck and I hope it doesn’t backfire.

Thanks for the spin. But a birds eye view versus an endzone view… no thanks. I like to see the game.

I hope. I think it’s a great idea to tarp, but gotta adjust prices accordingly. Had those seats 15-16 years. Our whole section is so much fun. Who knows where those people end up. But yea, the prices they’re showing aren’t just a little more. One ticket is $200 more than I paid for two.
