I wonder how Griswold would explain the Seattle Mariners phenomenon. Here's a team where all they do is marketing. They personally cater to the game attendee who does not care about the outcome of the game, and their attendance is abysmal.
I guarantee that if someone started a thread a week from now on dawgman questioning why people don't attend mariners games, Kent would say something like "who wants to go watch bad baseball? Until they fix the team, no one will want to waste their day going."
I heard a Mariner radio spot the other day, where some actor is pretending to be a business owner who bought four season tickets and then took a client to the game and got more business (or something like that). He was like, "Shazam! The tickets already paid for themselves."
I found it off-putting in the sense that this is not what going to a ballgame on a summer evening is supposed to represent.
Closing a sale with Mariners tickets? That client is a pushover. I know people that forced sales reps to buy Seahawks tickets.
Fetters can be a huge Romar apologist too. I remember finally going off on him 3-4 years ago when he kept trotting out lame excuses. With Fetters it's more disingenuous bullshit to keep up access as he's smart enough to know better.
the marketing department organized the blackout vs Arizona. All that work, all the fans who worked to show up were blessed with a god awful performance than just showed the difference in the top of the pac12 and the base.
If anything, kem should be blaming the basketball team and the architect for laying an egg when they had a chance to get more butts in the seats by being even slightly competitive or entertaining.
I was surprised how much noise they made when the team was down double digits to AZ. Something was fishy.
They got excited when someone hit a 3 to cut the lead to 15. That is how bad the game was from the get go.
It's like losing 1k in black jack within the first hour and then feeling alive when you win a ten dollar hand. You've already lost, you're just trying to get excited about something.

And if you look to the back end of last year with a team that was winning, shockingly, attendance picked up.

Kent has some ideas. First he would like there to be an application process for getting into the Dawgpack. Only fans who demonstrate on their application how WILD AND CRAZY they are will get to sit in the coveted Dawgpack section. Second, he would like them to dim the lights when the team enters the court. Third, he would like the BBQ to be brought back.
He finished his business plan by reiterating that saying the product is bad is just lame and lazy. After all, "we didn't close down dawgman when Tyrone was here" (real quote)
All I can say is, "how do I hire this guy as a consultant to manage my business?"

How do you illustrate wild and crazy on a paper application? Here's an idea kent, if the games are fun to attend, PEOPLE WILL SHOW UP. When the games suck, your team is losing, and even worse the team is dreck to watch, people don't. The team regularly shoots in the 30% range for FG's.
Scoring in all forms of life is what drives interest and participation. Only those who have spent the better part of a half century without pussy wouldn't understand the correlation.

I shake my head every time I hear that radio spot..
I'm hearing a good way to get people to go to games is by winning more often than you lose, being in contention for post season.. things like dat.
I could be incorrect though, it sounds too simple to actually work

I'm gonna go way out on a limb and predict you could get him, and probably for a price...
