NASCAR track wants to host a Jaguars preseason game


Quote:A preseason game at the speedway would attract a larger crowd than at home just due to the novelty of the location.

 

Season ticket prices would probably stay flat but their will be one less preseason game. Split with the gate or not, it will all be extra revenue for the franchise.
 

Thanks for supporting my point completely.  They wouldn't be there to see the Jaguars. They'd be there for the novelty of watching football at a speedway. 

 

History shows that season ticket prices would not remain "flat" if they pull a game from our rotation.  My ticket prices remained the same last year with one fewer game as they were the year before.  So, the prices actually went up to cover the lost opportunity, as I suspect they would do again to some extent if they pulled yet another game. 

 

Quote:Quote me where I said it was Khan's idea.

 

What I was pointing out was your dislike for Khan's ideas of expanding the market by moving a game elsewhere like London.

 

The Daytona game would fit right in with Khan's method of expanding the market and promoting the brand. Khan doesn't need to create the opportunity to take advantage of it.

 

You wouldn't understand this like you didn't understand the London move because you have zero business acumen. That's ok, you didn't go to business school nor expand a small business into a multibillion dollar operation, but you shouldn't be so hardheaded when people who have actually done one of those things tell you it makes business and financial sense.
 

How do you know what my background is? 

 

Short answer is you have no clue. 

 

I'm sure you have all sorts of experience in expanding a small business into a multibillion dollar operation, right? 

 

Quote:A little reading comprehension helps, bro.

 

FBT is the one complaining about the new ways Khan has chosen to expand the brand.

 

I am the one agreeing with Khan's new way of marketing the team to wider audiences.
 

Tap dance as you see fit.  I don't see any mention of London in this post, and the conversation we were having where you injected this bit of nonsense was specifically focused on Daytona, not London.  But, even if your point was about London, I've addressed that as well in this thread, so keep on trying, TMD Jr.  

 

Khan's methods are always focused on maximizing the bottom line.  That's why the team is playing a game in London.  Playing one in Daytona would not have the same impact, or even come close.  The team retains every penny of revenue from preseason games.  That money is not shared with the league.  So, playing games at home in the preseason gives the Jaguars more revenue opportunity than splitting the gate with the International Speedway.  I don't see Daytona offering to host a game for free.


Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
