How long did it take for you to pick your new seats?



The article in the Sun said that the capacity is 27,000. But yeah even 2,000 for walk ups seems low.

don't really have walk ups any more. with ticketmaster now you can pick your seats and then can print their ticket or show their phone, plus there are no blackouts on tv anymore. gameday ticket booths are more for helping customers than selling tickets now.

prefer 100% season ticketholders .. then my tickets are valuable and i can sell if needed on secondary market.
Then people are forced to continue to renew your season tickets and you have a more stable fan base.

I don't disagree but organizations seem to like to keep a few thousand tickets available to the general public each game. Even the leafs don't go 100% season tickets.

i don't know the reason for holding say 5%-25% singles but i will throw some ideas out there:
- singles are higher priced tickets, so higher margin (leaf are example of this)
- prevents scalpers or flippers from being too much of your ticket base
- allows new fans to get a taste of being a SSH (although with all games on tv you are already developing fans)

I would like to see some cross sport marketing. Sell argo upcoming game tickets at soccer games and give a small discount or a free food coupon and sell soccer tickets at argo games with same incentives. And make sure the signage at the games is specific to the game using digital displays. Fill the stadium for all events should be the goal. Its a beautiful facility lets make it rock!

Wouldn't want to have the job as Argo ticket seller at TFC games the first year. Be a real magnet for angry soccer fans.

this is pretty consistent with the premise they sold around 14-15k season tickets (looks like more in this map).
looks like 8,000ish remaining for singles -- so probably high-teens like 18,000 including 3/flex packs and corporate and group sales
