Regular season Bruins tickets are now on sale. Tickets can be purchased online, by calling 617-624-BEAR or stopping by the Bruins Box Office.
If you are planning on buying tickets this year, start saving now. Ticket prices have gone up once again (Delaware North most be trying to fund a new racino in West Virginia or something). It will cost you at least $121.50 to get a ticket downstairs ($141.50 for "Gold Level Games").
The Bruins did bring back their Student Night tickets for $29.50 balcony seats. Something tells me that there will be a lot of balding 35 year old "college students" at The Garden this year. I knew I saved that old college ID for a reason.
10 Game Mini Plans are also on sale. Last year the "Hungry for Hockey" 5 game mini-plan was the best deal going. For $39.80 a game you got a balcony ticket and access to an all-you-can-eat concession area. This year, those same tickets increased to $65 a ticket and a 10 game minimum. I guess you will just have to eat an extra $25 worth of luke warm hotdogs to make it worthwhile this year.
To put the Bruins fan fleecing in prospective, you can buy season tickets for the Tampa Bay Lightning ($239) for less than a seat on the glass for one "Gold Level Game" at The TD Garden ($289.50).
