RIDERS HIT SEASON TICKET LIMIT
The Saskatchewan Roughrider Football Club announced today that they have reached a season ticket sales capacity of 26,700 tickets sold.
Creating a season ticket sales capacity allows fans, who may not be able to make a full season commitment, the opportunity to purchase single game tickets when they become available.
“Interest to renew or purchase new season tickets has been very strong, following one of the most memorable seasons in franchise history. It’s important to us that the broader fan base has access to single game tickets and we have therefore capped our sales of season tickets for this year” stated Riders VP of Marketing and Business Development Gregg Sauter.
“We expect the demand for single game tickets to be high as well and we encourage fans to make their purchase as soon as possible when they go on sale.”
Mosaic Stadium capacity will return to 33,427 for the 2014 season.
Single game tickets will go on sale to the general public on May 31st at 10:00AM.
Tickets for the REDBLACKS CFL debut game June 14 at Mosaic Stadium are on sale now at www.Riderville.com.
Fans interested in purchasing season tickets for the 2015 season can join a waiting list by signing up at www.Riderville.com.
One of the main reasons for the huge popularity was lifting the blackouts.Many more people were exposed to to fun at the games
winning is the one and only reason demand is high. if this team stunck and the blackouts were still lifted nobody would be going.
Yawn !!!! ho hum, no stadium design reveal ? getting behind schedule already.
Just because you haven't seen the design doesn't mean it isn't done!
True.
But we are winning. Hopson knows this and he knows full well that if the problems that resulted in the 2011 season were allowed to persist the big treasure chest the Riders have built up would be gone. That's why Taman/Chamblin are locked up for a long time. They know how to win.
Long removed from the days of telethons. Is there any footage of those telethons on YouTube or anywhere? I can't even imagine the thought of this team not being here but that's how close it was.
Blackouts will return if demand drops….., the realitybis that this team and league is gate driven….. Always has been….so as long as the majority of the stands are full the blackouts will be lifted…..back in the day there was no choice but to keep the blackouts.
And by the way there were thousands of empty seats for the west semi last year precisely because the blackout was lifted and people could sit in their basements….the nfl has blackouts for that exact reason and it is the most successful league in the world
