Rams Game Blacked Out in St. Louis

by user Justjudith

I am personally annoyed that the Rams didn't buy up the remaining tickets so that the game against the Colts would be televised locally -- tonight's game is pre-season. I still wanna see it though. Some people were without power for almost two weeks last month so buying food probably took precedent over some football tickets. Not only that, the team was 6-10 last season, making people extra cautious about their ticket purchases. What a public relations blunder! No way to rally a fan base.

This game you speak of... it is a PRE season game (a.k.a. glorified practice game)???

it's the first chance to see this completely revamped team. it's an exhibition game but i still wanna see it. and there are several regular season games that haven't sold out yet...but they better. then i'll really be annoyed.

welcome to the world of a Arizona Cardinals fan... I have never seen a non-Cowboys home game on TV. They only sold out the Monday night Chargers game inSun Devil Stadium a couple of years ago when wildfires forced evacuations in San Diego because proceeds went to Charity, not the Bidwells.

And there there me, the Cleveland Browns fan who didn't even know that this kind of thing exsisted until I just read this because power outages, bad records and whatever are thrown at Browns fans, they'll still sell out the stadium.

Why would they black out a preseason game? Do they really plan to sell it out at full ticket prices? Why would anyone go to a preseason game anyway?
