Just Jack Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Maybe we'll start seeing some cross promotions between the Sabres and Bills, like if they both are playing at home on a weekend, getting a ticket package for both games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 The only ties I've really seen with the saints/Pelicans is you should expect the other teams sales staff to pester you if you have season tickets to only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 The only ties I've really seen with the saints/Pelicans is you should expect the other teams sales staff to pester you if you have season tickets to only one. Yep and it is HEAVILY frowned upon all the way to a violation of the CBA. In each league the players are allotted "x" percent of revenues. In the NBA we used the BRI (basketball related income) to determine that (audited by the league and players association). If you start creatively applying funds in places that are most beneficial for you, you are asking for hell. The Hawks and Thrashers used to REALLY stretch the lines on what $ went where. You may see some cracks at selling but you won't see a "buy this from Bills/Sabres and get that from the other." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodeMonkey Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Based on an article I read today on TBD, this is not allowed under the NFL rules. It would seem if you have a business arrangement with the NFL that you need to consult their rules before you take a ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 Based on an article I read today on TBD, this is not allowed under the NFL rules. I read that same article, as long as there is no discount for the tickets, they can sell them as a package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Based on an article I read today on TBD, this is not allowed under the NFL rules. It is allowed but no discounts are allowed on tickets in package. Organization could market ticket packages on weekend say when Saturday Sabres game and Sunday Bills game maybe even including discount on transportation and hotel via negotiations with vendors.

djp14150 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 There are very stricken rules on cross promotions. There hasn't been competition between promos. Now you may see joint promos for sponsors of both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I'm late to this so maybe it's been covered, but I just watched Sammy's interview on NFL AM from earlier today (http://www.buffalobills.com/video/videos/Sammy_Watkins_Im_looking_forward_to_playing_Revis/24930047-862f-457b-9947-2b577695b538). At the end of the interview he mentions that the team is going to the game tonight to meet the new owners. I didn't watch the Sabres tonight, did they mention it at all during the broadcast?
