Shady ticketing strategies?

Everyone (including me) is calling for more people to fill up the Garden..but its hard to get tickets when the ticket booth says they are sold out of 300 level seats for the night of the game. I was buying tix for family and friends tonight for future games and a dad and son came up wanting 300 level seats for the raps/blazers game and the guy said they were all sold out of 300 level seats..I CALL SHENANEGINS!!!!!!!!!! There was at least 3-4 sections up there EMPTY..an theres no way ALL of those tix were sold, so what gives?

maybe they don't like your type, and would prefer to keep you far away from the team.

Re: Shady ticketing strategies?

I don't think "SOLD OUT" signs when the section clearly isn't sold out is a good business strategy. Seems a little funny.

It's weird, though. Canzano was going nuts, wondering why people weren't showing up, on the BFT last night. Then tonight, in the post-game show, they kept saying, "show up! Please! Now!" And yet sections are sold out, but not really. Weird.
