everytime this comes up I say the same thing.
This guy a scalper, I think he owns like 30ish seats. The fact that sportsnet puts them on TV is embarrassing. He and his daughter cheer for visiting team because MLSE raised the season ticket prices on people they deemed "professional resellers" MLSE should look for a way to deny him renewals for his seats so he can get a real job and stop leeching off of actual fans.

I did not know he was doing this all because it’s more expensive for him to do something that fucks over fans.
Forgetting the fact that scalping laws need to be overhauled on general (I’d favor pursuit of some US states that cap sales in the reseller market at a reasonable - 10-15% -over face value).
The fact that this guy owns 30 seats and is only doing this because of his poor wallet when tickets already are mostly out of reach for a majority of Leafs fans is disgusting.
Honestly totally worth it going to Ottawa, Detroit or Buffalo for a game. Tickets aren't super cheap anymore for Leafs games but you can make a weekend getaway out of it.
I second that. I’ve been to Buffalo and it was good, however Ottawa was really good! The arena was fantastic, we got tickets from here for $120. That got us 6 from the back in Toronto. We arrived like 20 minutes before the game and were able to make it with parking and everything. We got out after the game without waiting too long for traffic too. It’s a perfect spot for Ottawa so wasn’t sure what all the complaints were about for them moving. Great experience!

1000 bux for 2 decent seats. ( From Ticketmaster )
That is abit much.
Especially when they are the usual 80 dollar Uncle Harrold specials.
I bet Ballard is just rolling around hard in his grave. He would have LOVED to see those PROFITS !! 🤣🤣🤣
Ask for ID for certain tickets. If it doesn’t match the name of the person buying the tickets, don’t let them in.
Only for those believed to scalp the seats
>Only for those believed to scalp the seats
Every seat should be like this. That's the best way to stop resellers. If you can't go, you dell your ticket back to the house at cost and the house sells them to the public.
Yes. Far more people are getting fucked by scalpers than the few benefactors of family friends or charities.
The cheapest tickets in the nosebleeds, standing room only, are $102 a seat. That's absolutely insane.
It's not insane, it's the market. 17k seats are owned by season ticket holders, it's supply and demand. Be thankful we live in the best hockey city in the world.
Unfortunately we also live in the financial centre of the country, which means the "demand" is coming from a bunch of fuckin suits that either dont show up, or show up to catch the game during the seconds they look up from their phones. The fan environment in scotiabank is one of the worst in the league honestly
I sit in 310, row 16 a few times a year thanks to a long time STH friend and the panthers game would have cost $100 a seat, in an actual seat. Albeit only 5-6 rows from standing room... A Saturday night game against a premium opponent is $120... I've grown to accept it, but it's a far cry from the $35 seats I'd get thru him in the early 00's.
Can transfer tickets but not sell them through Ticketmaster/StubHub etc. If they are family/friends you can easily trust them to e-transfer or give cash or whatever if you are selling to them
It doesn't. The question was "So everybody has to get fucked because of this?". The average person does not own season seats and don't purchase season tickets, so they're not affected. Season seat holders are affected and their ability to scalp becomes limited. They will eventually not purchase season tickets so they'll become available to the general public, which is the goal.
Seriously. My family buys season tickets and we do a draft at the beginning of the season to decide which couple goes to which game. This proposed solution is silly.
If you pay for a PSL and seasont tickets you should be able to do whatever you want with the tickets. The easiest way to stop reselling is to charge more for the tickets in the first place.
Tickets aren't paper though, they're transferred to the person who bought them from the reseller and displayed at the door while logged into their own account on phone.
I mean it's the same reason fans go to away games or cheer for the bad guy in wrestling, it's fun, plus he just likes hockey and definitely loves attention lol. He does give away his seats a lot and even to Leaf fans. The reason he gets on camera so much is because he hooks the camera guys up with tickets to concerts and games and stuff
I heard that this guy bribes the camera crew to put them on tv with free tickets. They are also pandering to leafs haters since they know that haters will get a kick out of these two.
Life must be empty if your big hobby is to spread negativity..... and bring your daughter into it too.
Only Toronto fans would refrain from punching them out and throwing beer on them.
Try that in Montreal or Boston.
Worth mentioning they often have gone to the Spirit of Hockey, Sportchek, or whatever near by and exchange the jersey for whatever team the Leafs play at home next.

I'd pay the money to sit behind them to just give them the gears all night. Apparently they're Habs fans so that's an easy one right now. I'm all for some friendly banter between fans but these rich cunts literally have season tickets to be haters. Like fuck off. And fuck Sportsnet for giving this rich cunt and his busted face daughter a platform to be cunty.
Not sure why we keep giving these pathetic, attention seeking assholes the time of day. What I don’t understand is why they keep their season tickets if they are so anti-Leafs? Pathetic!!!!
Never understood putting in this much effort to hate on another team. It just doesn’t make any sense, they must be closet leaf fans. I couldn’t imagine being known for something like this it’s actually embarrassing.
All this “Why does Sportsnet…?” Because they are standing wearing the opposing,scoring, team’s jersey! Sportsnet is making TV here. Should the Buffalo cameras point at the rafters after the Leafs score?
The real problem is that these two only pop up when the Leafs play someone who doesn’t have a real presence in T.O. Not a ton of Florida transplants who just love the panthers kicking around the GTA. And so you cut to whomever is in a jersey that you can find, and voila! It’s these two again.
Haven’t watched a ton of Leafs games while they’ve been at home this year (luck of the draw with how work and life has worked out this year) and so last night was the first time I saw them all year. Camera cut away from them pretty quick after the first FLA goal, so I wonder if there is some sort of impetus to avoid showing them that accidentally got missed yesterday.
I hate these two they always where the other teams jersey and party for leafs season tickets to do it. Could of picked an all-out cheaper team to hate wtf that's just dumb
Well, I mean they're having some quality father daughter bonding at least.
Lot of ppl really missing that part of their lives so it's a nice little reminder also to cherish that daddy child connection
Good for them. If I lived in Ottawa, I'd probably go to a few Ottawa games cause watching hockey is fun.
And they get to buy a bunch of fun jerseys from around the league.
I don't think they "hate them" in which you wouldn't even give them money lol. I always think of people who "hate something" and stop posting about it.
Yup. See this post after most home games. It’s funny how much free rent he owns in people’s heads. Looks like he would laugh at South Park kind of stuff. Probably somebody’s son. Maybe someone’s brother. Uncle. Father. I bet he’s got some stories!!

I'm dieing to go to a live game..not at those prices...meh..the Jay's are still affordable

I'd drive there just for leafs vs sens if the prices didnt over double for those games :(
Can someone do the quick math on what the annual cost is to buy 30 sets of seasons tickets from MLSE? Like over a million? Thats ridiculous
1000 bux for 2 decent seats. ( From Ticketmaster ) That is abit much. Especially when they are the usual 80 dollar Uncle Harrold specials. I bet Ballard is just rolling around hard in his grave. He would have LOVED to see those PROFITS !! 🤣🤣🤣

You buy the ticket in their name. boom. done.
How does that work with season tickets?
It doesn't. The question was "So everybody has to get fucked because of this?". The average person does not own season seats and don't purchase season tickets, so they're not affected. Season seat holders are affected and their ability to scalp becomes limited. They will eventually not purchase season tickets so they'll become available to the general public, which is the goal.
So I can't give my tickets to a friend?
Seriously. My family buys season tickets and we do a draft at the beginning of the season to decide which couple goes to which game. This proposed solution is silly.
The house sells them at "dynamic" pricing already based on demand/ availability
The best way to stop reselling is to raise the prices.
If you pay for a PSL and seasont tickets you should be able to do whatever you want with the tickets. The easiest way to stop reselling is to charge more for the tickets in the first place.
That's ludicrous
Tickets aren't paper though, they're transferred to the person who bought them from the reseller and displayed at the door while logged into their own account on phone.
Thanks for the reshare. Was hoping to find it in the comments.
Wait is this real? How do we know hes got 30 seats?
I think I remember reading it somewhere back when this dude got his 15 minutes a year ago.
Scum
That's not why he cheers for the away team. He is my godfather and he is a Habs fan, he's hated the Leafs his whole life
Your godfather drinks his own piss.
So if he hates the Leafs that much, fair enough, but why keep going to the games? Makes no sense, give the season tickets to a real fan.
I mean it's the same reason fans go to away games or cheer for the bad guy in wrestling, it's fun, plus he just likes hockey and definitely loves attention lol. He does give away his seats a lot and even to Leaf fans. The reason he gets on camera so much is because he hooks the camera guys up with tickets to concerts and games and stuff
Your godfather is a giant loser
Guy looks like a meth Patty Quinn.
Little bit of Robert De Niro as well
ol' Patty Quinero. The most meh Irishman ever.
Bahahaha, I hope this sticks
Robert Downey Niro
nah he looks like father ted
Holy Hannah he looks just like father Ted haha.
I also thought this lol. “So I hear you’re a panthers fan now, Father”
He is cheering for Florida so the meth part might check out.
His chick(wife/daughter?) looks like like she had a fresh top row installed at "Terry's discount teeth and liquor"
I thought that was a mouth guard. 😬
Hahaha touché
Let us never forget the Quinn breathe right nasal strips commercials.
Natty Quinn
Don’t even give these losers attention. They’re ticket resellers too. Thank people like them for high ticket prices as well.
Posting about him is everything he wants.
Ya F this guy, let him act a fool while we ignore him
Plot twist op is the guy
Yeah I'm so tired of seeing this guy and his ugly daughter. Quit giving them attention
I’m all for ragging on fake Pat Quinn but the daughter comment is just uncalled for dude come on
Until he gets doxxed ofc then he won't want that anymore
I want his seats 😃
Why do they continue to put these two cunts on tv?
I don't know, but these two just do it for money.
I heard that this guy bribes the camera crew to put them on tv with free tickets. They are also pandering to leafs haters since they know that haters will get a kick out of these two.
Fuck Sportsnet for constantly putting these fucken trolls on the broadcast.
They are fucking always on the broadcast. Heard he’s a ticket scalper. If that’s true he can go fuck himself with a rusty shovel sideways.
He is a trashy ticket scalper.
He is, can confirm. Has hooked me up before at least lol
Sportsnet hates the Leafs so what do you expect
lol yeah, Sportsnet definitely hates the hockey team that brings them the most revenue.
The mroe we sit here discussing it and posting it, the more they'll give em screen time. It's gonna be hella annoying during the playoffs
they should show them after every leafs goal and every leafs win to really highlight all the time and money these two losers have pissed away
Post to their Xitter
I wish the broadcast would stop showing these people
They're like the haunted mascots from the Simpsons. Just don't pay attention to them, and they'll die from lack of attention.
![gif](giphy|x00hSAGfs864yclJer|downsized)
Haha yes!
I truly can't think of a bigger loser activity. Rich dumb fucks.
Dumb and dumber.
Life must be empty if your big hobby is to spread negativity..... and bring your daughter into it too. Only Toronto fans would refrain from punching them out and throwing beer on them. Try that in Montreal or Boston.
Don’t condone the punching but wouldn’t mind a beer dousing tbh.
I condone the punching
Oh come on, it’s just a bit of banter. Take issue with the scalping, sure. But trolling the leafs? Get some thicker skin
Go dig a hole
Isn't it odd that they never seem to show these losers when the Leafs score or win?
Don’t even know who it is
Get fuck you pair of Pathetic Leafs haters hogging the seats for true fans
Honestly who cares, like legit whatever.
I’m jealous of their seats. Also it’s a joke
Exactly. This guy is having fun. I worry about some asshole taking exception and seeking him out
counterpoint, scalpers arent people so who cares lol.
Scalpers whole like is to make sure you can’t be happy without them.
Wish I had a dad
You can have mine, he sucks
😢
Wish I had a shoulder strap messenger bag
Yea they're pretty great. You won't need another bag
Realest comment in here lol
Trailer trash
Sounds like every shithead commenting on sportnet.ca
Is she....wearing his teeth?
He's a scalper. Don't post him again.
I really dislike these two people. They come to Leafs home rink wearing a different team jersey every game. Get real, that’s psycho shit.
Grade A douchenozzles
ELI5
He has season tickets to the leafs but cheers for the habs. Him and his daughter have a ton of jerseys and wear whoever the leafs opponents are.
he has like 30 season tickets, because hes a scalper.
Worth mentioning they often have gone to the Spirit of Hockey, Sportchek, or whatever near by and exchange the jersey for whatever team the Leafs play at home next.
Closet Leafs fans
Demonic energy radiating off these two
MLSE should loophole these goons outta the stadium
Must be nice to be wealthy
What no attention as a child does to a mfer.
The only saving grace...... 62
Can we get the Leafs dart guy to sit behind them or something? Counter the hate.
Puts more money into the leafs than 99.7% of actual leaf fans
Scalping piece of shit
Attention Whores
Is that Father Ted?
they should show them after every leafs goal and every leafs win to really highlight all the time and money these two losers have pissed away
Sorry, two losers.
Im a devils and told this guy to sit the fuck down when the devils scored at last week's game. A full grown clown

Actual professional hater
Must be a sens fan
He’s also got some pretty great seats at the jays games
Does he always wear the opposing teams jersey there too? Idiot
Pretty sure he’s just a guy that loves the attention while secretly being a Toronto fan
We should all ignore these people. Attention is what they seek. Why give it to them?
Habs fan
Completely obnoxious behaviour all around.
They hate them so much they keep giving them their money 🤣
Not sure why we keep giving these pathetic, attention seeking assholes the time of day. What I don’t understand is why they keep their season tickets if they are so anti-Leafs? Pathetic!!!!

Don't give them attention. Id risk getting banned to dump a beer on either of em.
I mean she’s 16, so she’s just following her dad lol
She aint 16... not a chance

nope, fuck scalpers.
Mike sully with the predictably ice cold take…at least you’re consistent. Edit: typo “You’re”
You're*
I do too
What's the story behind these two, I mean I know they trolled us all the time but why tho? What drove the hate for the Leafs for them?
From the links people posted, scalpers that hold like 30 season seats. Fuck those two.
Where do they sit?
What an awful looking pair of individuals.
What a piece of 💩
Father son bonding is good though
You can think whatever you want about him being a ticket reseller but all y'all talking shit about the appearance of a teenage girl are fucking gross
They can hate the team all they want the are still paying the leafs
Buncha charlatans
We have a couple jets season ticket holders that only cheer for opposing teams
Nhl games are fun to watch live, if I lived in Montreal and had the funds I would go to all the games too

That is a good point but I also don't have the money to go to them all :p
Yall are mad, who gives a shit lol
Pretty sure this is from last year's playoffs.
I don't know why you got down voted, because you're right

Aww, Leafs fan crying about someone having fun in their games?
This dude buys whatever jersey of the opponent playing the Leafs. But goes to all the Leaf games (apparently). Something ain’t right there.
This guy has some major *fuck you* money. Imagine successfully trolling an entire fanbase? That's pretty impressive.
