*sigh*
Do people really not understand what I said? I just simply stated that TNA does fan interaction, no matter the attendance. I don't understand how to make it any clearer than that.
Also, the autograph signing after the show is open to everyone in the building. Does it mean everyone will do it? No, but, it's still open to everyone no matter what. It's just like the signings at intermission are open to ANYONE, not just "first few rows". The only that that is "exclusive" to the first few rows is the pre-show meet and greet, nothing else is "just for the first few rows".
I don't see how that "number is way to high".... when it's under the projected number of 5,500-6,000. THe fact of the matter is... it set an all-time house show attendance record in the US for TNA (around 4,000-5,000... like I said earlier) and they still did it. That was my entire point, I don't see how my point is wrong nor do I see why people have to explain to me how TNA live events work, I am aware of how they work and have worked in the past, so, I don't need to be told how it works because I know how it works and it's not just for the people in the first few rows.

I'm not trying to argue with you. I see your points and I get what you meant, but you also made it sound like TNA was a better company because of the fan interaction. I think it's a cool thing to have, but don't think it makes a company better as a whole, and that's how your other messages sounded to me. You can have 4,000 people in a building, but unless they all bought tix and half weren't given away, then it means nothing. And before you jump at me saying they don't give away half their tix, I've heard they give away ALOT, while fan interaction is one thing, having to give away seats is another. Again, not trying to argue with you. I like TNA and want them to succeed. I'm just trying to make some points.

They were supposed to run a couple shows in Indiana in a couple of weeks, I was considering going to the Indianapolis one myself, but those have apparently been canceled according to their website. Bummer. A friend and I had 3rd row tickets to the Indy show...they did get cancelled, I'm thinking it had something to do with low sales...that's the only thing that makes sense at this point...

Okay, let's be fair here because I don't see how I was saying that makes them the "better" company as I wasn't even the one who brought it up. I simply stated that at their highest gated house show in north america (UK ones have done better), that they still included all the fan interaction activities that they would have had if the show only 1,000.

I'll just quote Bryan Alvarez: "No one wants to see heel Jeff Hardy."

You have to consider where the show is being run. Missouri is not typically known to be strong for wrstling. Yes, back in the day St. Louis was considered a hot bed. But those days are LONG over. When TNA comes back north east in January, they will see better numbers again. Blaming the place they are in for the low numbers is stupid. WWE Draws fine when they've been in St. Louis. And Yes I know, WWE is much bigger and all that. But I'm just saying, Blaming the state is stupid. They drew low numbers, it happens. Nothing to be too bothered about considering wrestling isn't as popular as it was anywere.

I think that's what he was getting at.

If they learn how to treat their fans and stop misleading them to purchase tickets then..........
