Are we getting our act together?

The Cincinnati Cyclones are now offering 12 and 6 game ticket packages. They have also announced a children's ticket. This is how you win fans in Cincinnati. Make everything seem like a deal, and the fans will come. However the work is not done. They need to set up booths around the arena during game days, and concerts to sell tickets at all times. Lets get r done.

Moving along

It has been awhile since my last entry. A lot has been happening. The Cyclones have signed many key players to the roster, and are inviting more to training camp. Today the Cyclones and the Knoxville Ice Bears made an announcement that the Ice Bears will be the Cyclones SPHL "affiliate". This is very exciting because we will have players ready to come up in case of injuries, or call ups. The hockey team is coming together nicely, but what about the front office? The Front Office needs to put advertising, and ticket selling into high gear. We are only 46 days away from October 20. It is time to blitz the market with Cincinnati Cyclone information. The ticket salesman need to be at every event in Cincinnati from here on out, promoting Cyclone hockey. Is anyone else excited about the return of hockey to Cincinnati?

I know I am excited about hockey returning to Cincinnati, but the drum of war is beating ever so loud in Norwood. The AHL elitist are now showing an even more hatred for the Cyclones. It is beyond me to understand how they can hate the sport they claim to love so much they would want to see the death of it in the Queen City. They claim ticket prices are too high. I wasted about 3 hours today comparing single game prices. I compared them to all the teams in ECHL, UHL and CHL. They are pretty even steven. Or par for the course. In my line of work I deal with death, arguments, fights, and a lot of other horrible things on a daily basis. I just wish I would be allowed to enjoy Cyclones hockey without all the redundant ridiculos blaming of the Cyclone fans for the failure of AHL hockey in Cincinnati. If I have learned anything from my job that is to accept responsibility for you OWN actions

IS IT OCTOBER 20 yet?

PS WHO DEY !!!
