Barclays Show in May

CROJAM95

Was at the Islander/Ranger game other night @ Barclays. My boss has season tix 3 rows off center ice. We got some passes after 1st intermission to meet Islander Greats Mike Bossy & Clark Gillies in the Billboard Lounge. Was awesome

My bosses account rep was there kissing his ass for a renewal of season tix next year..... Barclays is having all kinds of trouble with selling tix. Islanders move to Brooklyn isn't going so well.

So I flat out asked about PJ shows in the spring.... He said May for sure. He said 2 shows, he forgot the dates but he says it's happening.

I'm sure this has been discussed here, just passing some news along.

You lost me after you said Islander greats.

Let's go Nets and Isles! See you at Barclays if it happens.

Can't deny that.

It was a great game
All you can eat with those tix

These new arenas have stepped their game up with food choices

No more dirty water dogs ( even though tasty when hammered)

Gourmet fish tacos, filet mignon samwiches etc

sux for Islanders... They are a good product, they should get better support

Fuckin hipsters need to wake up

Nets on the other hand .... Sorry bunch who don't have a draft pick until like 2020 or some shit

That I get

It's cool , there are photos of Vedder all over the place

Nets were fun for the first two years. Now it's pretty bad but I was third row (first time floor seats) for their best game of the season so far, revenge against the Celtics.

Isles I was their opening night and two other times and I had a blast each time.

Barclays will pick up steam the next few years. It's a slow process in a building area.

My Boss had Nets season tix... Switched to Isles. He gives majority away to clients but we go to a handful of games.

Every so often he has to list them on secondary sites to recoup a few dollars

He got killed with Nets & Isles.... No market. Unless it's Knicks or Rangers.... He can't even get FACE back.... And these are all you can eat n drink.

That's nuts

^ Tix are overpriced there & Long Island people think Brooklyn is in Jersey or something. The Barn was easy in n out.

MSG is a tourist attraction... Knicks blow for a decade & u can't see empty seats

Brooklyn needs to check itself..... B4 it wra wra wra-ecks itself

Yeaaaaa boyyyy

I like the way you think!

That would present some interesting fan club lottery decisions, wouldn't it?

IMO the Islanders at Barclays isnt going to get fixed. Maybe if they go on some consecutive playoff runs they can get a bump for a few years.

The Islanders were a Long Island institution. I dont think a ton of their fans are making the trip.... or are interested in doing so. The fanbase is already a bit diminished due to a generational failure. Not one playoff series win since they upset the Penguins in 1993.

So then you have this kind of 'quaint' franchise in Brooklyn. It isnt appealing to hipsters.


IMO at some point they are going to re-brand the team under the guise of "saving them". Theyll be the "Brooklyn _________" and wear black and white/silver. Its going to be a shame.

New ownership takes over July 1. They may be reviewing these issues now. And yes, that would be horribly sad!
