Orlando Predators To Auction Off Best Seats In House To Benefit Tornado Relief
ORLANDO, Fla. (February 12, 2007) -- The Orlando Predators, in conjunction with XOS – its internet partner and the Orlando Predators Foundation, will auction off two of the best seats in the house to help benefit tornado relief in the Central Florida community.
Beginning tomorrow, fans can bid on a pair of Row A, 25-yard “Dream Seats” for the 2007 season. The minimum bid for the pair will begin at the face value of $5,000 and the auction will run until Monday, February 19, 2007. The tickets are for all eight regular season games and includes VIP parking, two admissions to the Arena Club for the season, along with a private backstage Arena tour and a meet-and-greet with Jay Gruden prior to one of the games. Should the Predators host a first round playoff contest, the successful bidder will also receive the tickets to that game at no additional charge.
The Orlando Predators Foundation, the Predators and XOS will donate a minimum of $500 to Central Florida tornado relief. Team officials hope the unique nature of these tickets will bring bids far in excess of the tickets’ face value and allow the team to maximize its donation to tornado relief.
“The main thing for the fans to understand is that these tickets are better than the owner’s seats,” Predators President Brett Bouchy said. “This is an opportunity for the general public to get the very best season tickets in the front row at midfield of the Arena. The bottom line is these seats will never even be available to the general public except at this auction.”
