I feel for the season ticket holders because they've shelled out a ton of money for an inferior product. If they don't go to the game, they've waisted their money. If they scalp their tickets, someone else goes and it doesn't help the cause. If they don't renew their tix, the next guy on the list gets to go. Thing is, the stands still get filled. You're never going to hurt him that way.
I have a gut feeling that this current media/fan barage is going to work. I wouldn't be surprised if DS either makes a drastic move soon (i.e. firing Vinny) or possibly breaking his media silence. Something big is on the horizon.
I've never seen anything like this. Viva la revolucion!

I don't have season tickets so I'm good. Those of us who don't should not go or purchase any sports wear in regards to the Skins. If we are not going or purchasing products DS will lose money, money he has counted on to pay the players and staff.
For those with season tickets, I know you don't want to give up your tickets, especially if you already paid for them. I was suggesting that those fans ride Metro to eliminate DS capitalizing on their money for parking. I would guess he has to make a certain amount of money from parking in order to pay some of his bills. Lastly I suggested fans eat prior to arriving at the park. If you don't purchase the high priced food then the Venders don't make money and DS does not get a % of their take in order to be allowed to sell in his park.
What I don't know is when you purchase season tickets is your meal included? If so then you fans might as well eat cause you already paid for the meal. If it's not then only spend if you have to, like feeding kids, or drinks-but I would not buy too many drinks. Do they allow you to bring water bottles in? If so find a fountain and refill it instead of paying for water. I know not purchasing beer at a game would almost be taboo but a few games of not having it might make a future of difference.
I still can't help but laugh at people with "Obstructed View" seats. WTF? If I wanted to watch the game on TV I would have stayed at home. Had good food, and not had to worry about a DUI.
