36ers Average Crowd Stats

Anon- I agree with you in that sence, but I know that I would rather go to the dome with a packed house than half packed.

If you are a season ticket holder mabe you should get other perks, like free car parking or something else that makes it a bit different to the freebe ticket holders, Im not saying that this is the solution, because idealy you want a packed dome, with all people paying, but atleast games will feel like the old days

Give them out to different junior footy clubs. Possibly poach back some youngsters from Aussie Rules..

What I don't understand is why, if they are only getting small crowds, dont they give a heap of tickets to school kids and things like that. Perhaps Kids get in free with every paying adult. Better numbers = better atmosphere, and a more enjoyable experience for all.

If they give away tickets to people and they get another 1000 people to the games, they will make cash from the $8 cokes,etc. You cant get your money back on empty seats.

Mr Hemmerling has not brought back the former glory to the club either. We are yet to make playoffs under his ownership. Sure its risky spending money but not spending it stagnates the club.

That's a reflection of the success of the 36ers in the past. With the performances of the last few years, its not surprising that fans have dropped out. It gets a bit monotonous watching them lose all the time. You've got to spend money to make money. Perhaps someone might like to tell Hemmerling that. I don't know what people's opinion of Hemmerling is but when he bought the team, my immediate thought was that huge improvements were going to happen and he was going to bring them back to their earlier glory days. With his expertise in sporting management he would have made a success of his investment. I am quite surprised at how ineffective he has been since becoming the owner. In fact, I haven't seen any sign of the successful entrepreneur he was during the Adelaide Grand Prix and the Sydney Olympics.
