Thread: OFFICIAL "I Saved THIS MUCH on Tickets" Thread (& what I did with the $$$)

Look on the bright side, now you have all this spending money which you saved by not paying for Kings home games (plus Kings games @ ponda). Let's look at the cancelled home games to date, including pre-season:

PRE: $20 per ticket, $10 gas to and from. Total Savings=$60
Mon. Sept 24 Coyotes
Sat. Sept 29 Avalanche 7:00pm

PRE-SEASON AWAY: $640
Sat. Oct 6 Ducks** 7:00pm
Wed. Sept 26 @ Avalanche* FROZEN FURY: $500 including gas to/from, ticket, motel 6
Mon. Oct 1 @ Ducks 7:00pm BATTLE FOR EMPIRE: $100 including gas to/fom

REGULAR: 9 cancelled games, $20 per ticket, $10 gas to and from. Total Savings=$270
10/30 Kings vs Blues ‎-Cancelled
11/01 Kings vs Wild ‎-Cancelled
11/10 Kings vs Blue Jackets ‎-Cancelled
11/13 Kings vs Predators ‎-Cancelled
11/18 Kings vs Ducks ‎-Cancelled
11/25 Kings vs Stars ‎-Cancelled
11/27 Kings vs Blackhawks ‎-Cancelled
11/29 Kings vs Red Wings ‎-Cancelled
11/30 Kings vs Blue Jackets ‎-Cancelled

I calculated only the price of the ticket, and what it cost me to get to and from the game. You may also want to calculate how much you would have spent at the game that you wouldn't have spent elsewhere. For example, you eat dinner every night, but might not buy a $10 beer or souvenir chachski's. I don't eat at Staples and can't afford to buy stuff, so it's just ticket and gas for me. My total savings for games that would have taken place and not been cancelled:

almost ONE, THOUSAND DOLLARS



I would of probably wasted another $300+ in Vegas. As to what I'll do with the money, for the first time in years, I will have $ to buy Christmas gifts with (no more excuses).

Now calculate your savings and what you plan to do with the money.

Dang, it is scary to see how much we do spend on this stuff.

I have Dodger Season tickets so if the season is cancelled maybe I can afford to get season parking.Where do you park ?

What, not winning with the Kings for 45 years wasn't enough torture?

I've done the math too. Including tickets, parking, gas, food and misc... I've saved about $125 a game and that my friends is why I've decided to splurge on a 40th bday bash next month!

Lmao tell me about it ! I'm convinced its going to happen for them soon though !

Gajeebus, you finally save a thousand bucks, and you're delighted you'll be able to spend them on Christmas gifts?! So American.

Went to Napa, Vegas and bought the wifey's Xmas presents early.

Good and bad times simultaneously.
