joe w bags Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Tickets in Toronto reduced 17% Bills Toronto Series organizers announced today that the average ticket price for the 2009 NFL regular season game in Toronto has been reduced by 17 per cent. The reduction is the result of an overall adjustment that includes a large increase in the number of tickets available for less than $100 – from 4,700 in 2008 to more than 11,000 in 2009. In total, twenty-five per cent of all 2009 regular season game tickets will be available for less than $100. “During the offseason we asked our customers for feedback on the Bills Toronto Series. This price adjustment, developed in conjunction with the NFL and the Bills, is a result of that feedback,” said Phil Lind, Vice Chairman, Rogers Communications Inc. “Sports leagues and teams around the world are taking similar steps to make their products more accessible. We are conscious of these challenging economic times and are more committed than ever to providing Toronto sports fans with an outstanding NFL experience.”

DasNootz Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 As luck would have it, the Canadian dollar is trading at 17% less than it was 12 months ago too.
SKOOBY Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 As luck would have it, the Canadian dollar is trading at 17% less than it was 12 months ago too. You still have to travel to Toronto to see a "home" game, which will eat up any savings from this and the exchnage difference.
thebug Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 You still have to travel to Toronto to see a "home" game, which will eat up any savings from this and the exchnage difference. Why didn't you do something to put a stop to this Bills in Toronto thing? Don't you have connections?
cody Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 As luck would have it, the Canadian dollar is trading at 17% less than it was 12 months ago too. They reduced the price in Canadian Dollars. Wouldn't that mean a ticked that was $100 USD last year will be $66 USD this year? (17% for Roger's reduction and 17% for the exchange rate)

lets_go_bills Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 The reduction in price coupled with the US dollar being more than the CAN dollar makes it much more worthwhile for Buffalonians to make the quick drive into Toronto for the game. I live in Canada and am a Bills season ticket holder and I'm not going to the games in Toronto. Screw that. Buffalo forever!
The Dean Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 You still have to travel to Toronto to see a "home" game, which will eat up any savings from this and the exchnage difference. Of course, you could look at it as a good reason to go to one of the better cities in North America.
