Team owners:

Any body plan on doing large construction or buying seats this offseason?

I think we (The Reapers) will add a corner section or a endzone section.

We have added all four corners We were hoping for and end zone as well but it hasn't worked out as of yet.

Two corner sections have been added for the Death Monkeys.

Thing is, Corner sections are more profitable than end zone. If you work it out... it costs the same per seat to build the end zone as it does the corner sections. Because the corner sections are higher priced tickets you make more money....

But hey... what do I know? lol

Built two corner sections, but I wanted a corner and an endzone. Maybe next year.

Heres my math and I am sure its flawed somewhere so please pick it apart lol.

Corners 1840(seats) x $36(expected price of tickets) x 8 home games =$529,920
End Zone 2760 x $32 x 8 = $706,560

Concessions estimate.. Lets just take $25 as a guess for our avg concession per seat.

Corners 1840 x $25 x 8 = $368,000
Endzone 2760 x $25 x 8 = $552,000

Totals

Corners
$529,920 + $368,000 = $897,920 Cost. $1mill = -102,080

Endzone
$706,560 + $552,000 = 1,258,560 cost $1.5 Mil = -$241,440

For each playoff game add $66240 to corners and $88320 to endzone

No your maths is fine. My point is that you make more money in the long run with the corners.

If you take it from a "per seat" view...

Both corners and endzone, cost per seat to construct is:

$543.48

If you sell a ticket for a corner you make $38, sell one for an endzone and you make $32.

In comparison, look at the difference between this and expanding your current sideline seating.

Cost to construct 1 seat = $1,000. Ticket Sells for $42. Doesn't make sense does it?

I made the mistake in my first year expanding my current seating... big mistake.

It only become profitable when you get to building the level 2 sideline.

The cost per seat of building level 2 sideline is around 750 dollars, something like that. but you only make $32 per ticket. So once you have built level 2 sidelines, it actually makes sense to expand the level 1 sidelines.

There's a really good spreadsheet

Wow, that's a lot. I need to read a little bit more about the stadium, I don't understand it every well but I didn't go look at it in depth. I trust Draip will do a great job on that so we can be a top notch host for all you guys.

It sounds like a lot but we will need it in order to send equipment upgrades to everyone and to build more on the stadium at the end of next season. We are hoping for at least the other end zone and both of the 200 sidelines.
