If you go to thunder.nba.com now you can buy them online though they are only offering 'Loud City' tickets and it doesn't appear any 'low' rows are available.

More than 1,000 season tickets remain. There are tickets left in all sections, although the majority are in Loud City. Fans can call (405) 208-HOOP or go to thunder.nba.com for more information.

Sounds like there isn't a waiting list anymore if anyone can call to get season tickets?

Yea, thats what has me a little confused! I called about a month ago, and asked about tickets, and I signed right up! I thought there was a big waiting list. Guess I got lucky?

My son got a phone call from Champions seating rep...seems there are seats available in the $$$$ seating area. My son had expressed interest earlier on behalf of his employer's company for the new Terrace &/or Loge area.

Think the high rollers may have pulled back some with the economy in its present state and Thunder does want blocks of seats in the lower bowl being empty. For us that pay from our own pockets must cannot afford $250/seat/game, so that leaves the Corporates and businesses to step up.

This will be a time for the hardcore fans to show their support, short-term AND long-term.

Go THUNDER !!!

I was watching local channel 9 news/sports tonight and they had a commercial advertising Thunder season tickets for sale. Also, I have seen the ads on newsok.com

I think the 23-59 record (with a lot of horrible losses) are a big factor in that.

I think we're still pretty fortunate to have this many. I perish at the thought of how many people will be going to a Grizzlies game next year....we're nowhere near the bottom.

Dont think it was so much the team's record as it is Corporations scaling back their purchases. Tough economy=less spending.

Agreed, tony. I was discussing tix sales with a rep @ the Draft party; he said lots of accounts reduced the number of tix from 10-12 to 8-10; corp accounts were even cutting drastically. The overall # of accounts not renewed was "not too bad" (his words) but the reduction of seats per account was attributable to the economy.

I know the company that I work for reduced their number from eight to four; economy was some of it, but we went from Loud City, Lower Bowl & Club to ALL Club with more $$ spent and better location for utilization of client/sales relationships.

I believe community excitement will be growing and a slight improvement in economy will bring sell-outs with Mini-Plans and big games.

Go THUNDER !!!
