You know how you always read those quotes from coaches, GMs, players, etc about how they don’t read Internet message boards? Well, one Atlanta Hawks owner certainly does. He not only reads them, but he posts from time to time!
Bruce Levenson of the Atlanta Spirit, the infighting group that owns the Hawks, posted on the Hawks forum at RealGM.com and offered posters there $10 tickets to a game against the Clippers. The seats normally go for $55. Sure, it’s Atlanta and those seats would probably have gone empty – especially against the Clips – but that’s a damn cool gesture.
I think owners are learning from Mark Cuban how to stay in touch with their fan base.
Hat tip to the Sports Frog.
