Unlike many other teams in the NHL, the Buffalo Sabres always seem to benefit from strong fan support. Buffalo ranked 9th in overall attendance the past two seasons and has played in front of an arena that is more than 98% full on average. It’s not secret that a huge factor in sustained attendance numbers is keeping your season ticket holders happy, and the Sabres have certainly found a way to do that. As the team’s Twitter showed us, Buffalo owners and players spent the day on Wednesday personally delivering tickets to season-ticket holders’ homes.
Fan relations go a long way for a sports organization, and I doubt any season ticket holder out there would not want their tickets delivered by one of their favorite players or the teams owner. A+ public relations maneuver.
