Are you ready for some basketball? The Indiana Pacers are — tipping off the 2010-2011 home season on Saturday against Philadelphia (after road games in San Antonio and Charlotte).
The Pacers are pledging to Protect the Promise on the court. Off the court, the front office is offering two special ticket packages for Indiana Chamber members. Both will allow you to reward employees/vendors/customers/etc. with group outings, while also seeing one of the two spotlight teams (the LeBron James-led Miami Heat or the defending champion L.A. Lakers) heading into the season.
Below are the details. Contact Dionna Widder at 317-917-3079 to take advantage of the opportunity.
- Pacers Tip-Off Package ($1,000): 50 balcony tickets to the October 30 home opener against Philadelphia; 4 lower level tickets to the home opener; 2 Krieg DeVault Club Level tickets to the February 15 game against the Miami Heat; and 20 balcony tickets to a "value game" with a Fan Experience (Hi-5 players, presentation or cutting down the nets)
- Pacers Pride Package ($500): 25 balcony tickets to the home opener; 2 lower level tickets to the home opener; and two Krieg DeVault Club Level tickets to the December 15 game against the Los Angeles Lakers
Like him or not, Frank Luntz is known nationally by many in the political arena as a top pollster. One of his most recent polls, however, focuses instead on the basketball arena, and shows very encouraging results for the Indiana Pacers. Luntz recently spoke to Gerry Dick of Inside INdiana Business about the rebuilding of the team’s image, stating that 90% of fans polled believe the team has kept its promise to "clean up its act." He also offered that he’d never seen a turnaround of that magnitude in professional sports before.
