I think i missed part of this conversation, but has anyone said WHY North
Dakota gives away student tickets? Clearly they have the fan support, I
would think the students would pay to get in. Plus, hockey has to be their
only real revenue sport. I was just baffled by this when I saw it. Even
at my high school students had to pay a couple of bucks. $55 for the year
is right around $2/ticket, depending on the schedule for a particular
season. Certainly not outrageous.
