offer cheaper concession nights. put a buy one get one ticket voucher in cincinnati magazine, or the enquirer. pump up the dayton games as local rivalries (like they used to do with cleveland). throw some family stuff in there to make it a bit, um, cleaner. with some of the people i've sat around (people who use the f-word like it means hello, and people who think hockey is only about fights), i'm not sure i'd want to take a kid there. i'm not asking for a teddy bear hug night, just something to make the crowd a bit cleaner, like a family section or something.
I remember in the ihl days they had the skyline chili family zone section for every game. They could bring that back or have something like it.
Only thing I have to say to Fruitloop is It a Hockey game and the F Bomb is going to fly no matter where you sit. Hell my 67 year old mom threw one up last year B/C lack of calls by the refs. Does this make my mom a bad person? No just someone that is getting into the game. I'm not saying to sit there and throw the F bomb every other word, but it's going to happend from time to time. If that's the worst thing that my kids are going to hear or see in life then let me live at the Hockey rink(hell that will be fun come think about it)And I do agree with the cheaper Soda deals for those's of us who don't drink all the time.
