Some good ideas here. Now, the key is getting this information in front of the actual groups. This would require not only posting on social media and website but actual boots on ground legwork via calls, mailing, personal outreach within a 45-minute radius of Birmingham.
-- Civic groups
-- Churches
-- Scouts
-- Youth sports leagues
-- Schools
-- Apartment complexes
-- Clubs
-- Bands
-- Government agencies
It would be huge to land an average of 1,000 group tickets sold per game. Probably wasn't doable at Legion, but I think it's very possible with some work now.
From the article:
Group pricing ranges from $10 to $15 per ticket depending on the size of the group. Some unique fan experiences for groups include greeting the team with a hi-five tunnel when the Blazers take the field, a group photo on the field or a videoboard recognition, among others. See the full list of available fan experiences for the 2021 football season below.
Birthday Packages: Celebrate your birthday with the Blazers and receive a gift along with a Happy Birthday shout out on the videoboard.
Game Ticket with Meal Voucher: Add on a stadium food voucher for each member of your group to enjoy during the game.
Wave the Flag: A unique part of the on-field pregame pageantry, wave the giant Blazers flag to get the crowd fired up.
Videoboard Recognition: Get your group recognized on the videoboard.
Photo on the Field: Commemorate your experience during the inaugural season at Protective Stadium with an on-field group photo opportunity.
Spirit Tunnel: Your group will high-five the Blazers as they run out of the tunnel to take the field.
