Should the NBA offer free gas as an incentive for going to the games during the 08-09 season?

Question

Yes or No, and why?

Answer 1

No I take BART to most Warriors games its like $3.90 each way

Answer 2

No...because it would be a stupid 1-5 dollar gas card for every 10 games you visit or something dumb like that.

The NBA is to cheap.

Answer 3

No. Most NBA teams are located in big cities where traffic piles up, therefore only about half the fans drive; give or take, depending on the city. I doubt it would be a very profitable business move unless they just gave stupid little discounts instead of say, a free tank.

It would be better for an NBA teams play if they gave gas discounts for relatively close road games, but that would never happen because the ticket money wouldn't go to that team anyway.

Answer 4

Given the ridiculous salaries the players make and price of tickets, it's the least they can do. But regretfully the NBA is money driven perhaps even more so than baseball

Got a tad bit tired of all the trolls and puckbunnies in the hockey section, eh Howler?
