What are the chances of someone on the street actually going?
If this was going to happen it would be better to get two tickets so that the person can bring someone if they want, most people don't like doing things on there own.
Then buy two tickets Ryan.
No, while I appreciate the gesture I remain sceptical. I'd pitch in a few bucks if the Fever were giving tickets to something like Ronald Mcdonald house or canteen or something like that.
Okay, fair enough.
But I'm going to do this my way, because I want to.
The way I see it, I am stumping up the money, so I get to decide what I am going to do with it. I appreciate your feedback, and I am not pissed off by it at all... but I am saying to you and anyone else who thinks it could be done better in a different way - do it then.
I intend to talk to people before just giving them the ticket. Not just randomly give it to someone and hope they decide to come to the game.
I expect I might talk to 20 or so people before finding one I give the ticket to. It's entirely possible that one or some of those 20 odd people might either
(a) go to the game after having had their attention drawn to it, and/or
(b) tell some people about this guy who stopped them in the street to talk about the Phoenix, and that some of those people might go to the game, and/or
(c) might not go to this game, but then might have their awareness raised so they look out for the next home game a bit more.
If it raises awareness, it's worth doing.
Also, it's entirely possible that the person I give the ticket to WILL want to go with someone...
...what will happen then?
Maybe they will buy one or more tickets for the person/people they want to go with them.
Wouldn't that be wonderful?
