I was browsing around the "ROTJ" forum and found these 2 great ideas by Herman:
1. My first idea is a "Jets Roadtrip" that would take bus tours full of Jets fans on either a western roadtrip, eastern road trip or southern road trip to see the Jets play 1-5 road games. The Jets organization could probably get a good deal on tickets, accomodations, and bus travel and charge the fans 10% more but still low enough that it's a good deal. I know it won't be in the millions, but I'm sure they could make a couple thousand. It's not much but it's better than nothing and it would be a cool experience for hockey fans.
(There would definitely be a market for this in Winnipeg and throughout Manitoba for that matter)
2. My second idea concerns intermission revenue like a "Chuck a Puck" event. Does anyone know if the Moose make money from this or does it all go to charity? They could probably think of similar events to make money during intermissions without it being illegal. For example, maybe make more exciting contests during intermissions and make people pay a small fee to enter. People might also be able to pay to enter their high school team in a shoot out tournament to be played during intermissions. I don't know if any of these intermission ideas are actually feasible or would generate revenue for the Jets.

It's at 89cents/litre now. I can only imagine what the prices are in Winnipeg.
