Actual tickets sold is good for the revenue aspect, but forecasting into next year should raise some huge concerns.

Especially if the Grizz have a long playoff run. I can't imagine much excitement for season ticket renewals next year if this year plods along like we've seen and the Grizz continue to excel.

The Grizzlies will be the death of tiger attendance this year and for renewals next. That team has a real chance to advance in the nba playoffs to the finals. There's only so much disposable income in this town.

The Tigers conference slate sucks. Back to playing teams we have been trying to get away from. Memphis fans are fickle and apathetic and a good percentage have already moved on from pastner.

It is what it is.

Memphis (and the surrounding region) has enough money to buy 1,044,000 tickets. Don't blame the Grizz for any apathy with the Tigers.

At some point, "just alright" was going to really hurt when "just alright" slipped into "mediocre."

Everyone knows Memphis is a fair-weather friend.

Bingo.

Tom, being a fan and supporter of the Grizz and Tigers doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. Most folks I know support BOTH.
