Why? So all the corporate types could scoff up all the tickets and leave
the real fans out on the street? Boston is hosting a basketball
sub-regional at the Fleet Center this weekend. I read in the Boston Globe
yesterday that each school is allotted 350 tickets! That's 2,600 tickets
total (8 teams) for the fans of the teams and 17,000+ for everyone else.
And this is for the first two rounds of the tournament. I shudder to think
of a similar scenario for hockey. I like it just they way it is.
