The Business & Pleasure of Sports
They didn’t make the playoffs, but the Panthers did sell nearly 1,400 Playoff Promise tickets, the team said.
A total of 1,377 tickets were sold under the marketing campaign that promised fans the team would make the playoffs – for the first time since 2000 – or buyers would get tickets to four games free next season. That means 1,377 tickets can be redeemed for games during the Panthers’ 2009-10 season.
