There are two ways of looking at the numbers from Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse’s interview with Timberwolves president of business operations Chris Wright.
↵Positive: Hey, the Wolves sold 2,000 more season tickets this year!
↵Negative: Oh, no: the Wolves had to cut prices so much that 7,000 tickets for this year are worth what 5,000 were last year.
↵Nevertheless, Wright points out that this means that more fans will be in the stands, which has to be a good thing for the team. (It is, however, a bad thing for those of us with seats in Row T in the end of the upper deck: fewer choices to which to move down.)
