Starting on April 29, the Flin Flon Bombers will be releasing their early bird prices for the 2010-11 season tickets. "The reason for the increase is that we increased in our expenses," said Flin Flon Bombers president Richard French, "such as travel and accommodations, rent and stick prices." From the end of April until June 1, tickets can be purchased for $300 for adults, $250 for students and seniors, and $175 for children. In the past, the tickets have gone on sale later in the year with a gradual raise in price. This year, French says, after the early bird prices, there will be one set price. The prices are "what (they were) in September," said French. "Either get it by June 1 for the early bird, or get one after for the $325 price range." Following the early bird special, prices will go up to $325 for adults and $275 for students and seniors, but will remain the same for children. Those prices, according to French, are the same as they were this past season. The only real difference is the lack of gradual price increases. Tickets will still be available at the door on game nights. Season ticket holders will notice a difference this year as each ticket will have a specific date printed on it. As for having rain cheque days, French says nothing has been decided yet. The Bombers also offer a flex package, which offers fans the opportunity to buy tickets for 14 games of their choice throughout the season. Unlike the season tickets, the flex package does not offer reserved seating. The Flin Flon Bombers will be present once again at the annual Trade and Leisure Show, where they will be selling tickets for their boat raffle.
