Guest 4Life Report post Posted July 19, 2002 The Fairgrounds box office will be open special hours this Saturday from Noon to 2pm and will be open on Wednesday's from 3pm until showtime Reserved ringside seats are $15, and General Admission will cost $10 per ticket. For five extra dollars each week you get to see it live. They need to stop doing these shows in Tenn and start coming down here to Georgia where I can go see it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted July 19, 2002 The reason for the cheap tickets is that ticket sales aren't how they are trying to make money. IT's more inmportant to them to have people there to sell the product right now. They also just moved to a smaller venue so they don't have to block off the top of the arena anymore. They will consider switching back in a few weeks...but until then it's cheaper for them to use the Fairgrounds. Say what you want about Jerry Jarrett...but he is money wise.

Guest 4Life Report post Posted July 19, 2002 In my opinion, whatever gets over in Tenn will work in Georgia. It's not that different. I might just plan a trip up to Tenn with some friends so we can check it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted July 19, 2002 I weighed in on the pluses and minuses of staying in one place but it breaks down like this: Plus: Wrestlers will have an easier time getting over and staying over with the same crowd every week (see:ECW) Plus: Travel Expenses Minus: Doesn't exactly grow a fan base. That Minus is bigger than the 2 pluses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 4Life Report post Posted July 19, 2002 You don't think that by adding Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and possibly Virginia would help them out? This is probably their largest fan base. You can't just cater to same 1000 people each and every week. You have to consider expanding your brand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted July 19, 2002 Thats what I was saying. Actually...they need to cover the places where ECW made money too. Philly loves smaller promotions...Buffalo was great for ECW...Ohio too...places like that would be good to go visit once ever few months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
