They canceled my tickets and didn’t let me renew. Thank you Gayle, I’ll keep my $8k a year.

Here's my email to my ticket rep on January 9:
Larry,
This basketball team is unwatchable. That Trailblazers team is garbage and the game last night wasn’t even competitive. Please tell your bosses they need to fire David Griffin. Terrible roster construction. We need a new President of Basketball Operations. This clearly isn’t working.
I know this is not your fault and I’m not taking it out on you. I just want you to pass the message along. I’ve been a season ticket holder for YEARS and there’s no way I’m re-upping next year. No way whatsoever. They raised prices over and over and over again and I sucked it up. Never again will I be buying season tickets. What a waste of money. You can cut my ticket prices by 50% and there’s no way I’d re-up out of principle.
Please forward this email to whoever your boss is. I’m sure they can add it to the many other fed up season ticket holders.
His response was:
I can understand your frustration here, believe me.
Your feedback has been passed on…
I have noted your decision for next season - You may still receive a few renewal emails in the future, feel free to ignore/delete these.
If I can help at all the remainder of this season please let me know.
Then, when I got a renewal email on March 11, I told him I was not renewing. He asked me why and I wrote:
Appreciate you letting me know your initial thoughts.
May I ask why? I know this season has left a lot on the table but I believe we have a team that can compete when healthy.
I will point out some new benefits this season including a Complimentary Parking Pass (Deadline Fri. April 4th), and Complimentary Pelicans+ Subscription. You will also receive the $1,000 in Pelicans Bonus Bucks.
Perhaps there is a solution we can find together, if it’s a different location or a smaller package. Please let me know your thoughts on these options.
To which I responded:
Since you asked, I would direct you to Seatgeek and see what the tickets are going for on the secondary market. But I'm sure you already have that data. I see no reason to commit myself to purchasing tickets for $80 a pop when I can get them for less than half that on Seatgeek. It is just basic math. And no, I do not want a smaller package.

Larry is my ticket guy too.
He called and messaged me Monday about tickets.

So I'm hearing there is no longer a waiting list for Saints season tickets. If true that is very concerning. It means not many people will buy Pelicans season tickets.

Should have drafted Sanders
Posted on 5/1/25 at 5:22 pm to Silverfoxx
No body I mean no body should waste their HARD EARNED dollars on this pitiful product.I’ll never forget when Tom Benson threatened to move the team because the lack of support,yet he was trying to sell chicken shite instead of chicken salad.Gayle hasn’t threatened yet but upped prices and talked about renovating SKC while having a garbage product and expecting fans to except this.F her ,Loomis,Lauscha and Dumars.They won’t get anymore of my money.

She will, this team needs to move now!

Gona be awkward when no one gets upset if they move.
As long as you have fans at least still angry they can still fix it. Once apathy sets in, good luck.

Maybe an NHL team would bring better luck?

I won't be fooled again

It's pretty crazy to read this thread then consider what they did with the Griffin/Dumars debacle and the decision to keep Willie lol
It just further shows that they could not care less about anything but the money in their pockets
