Minnesota Wild raise season ticket prices

Just as expected, the Minnesota Wild raised season ticket prices. The new cost of a Minnesota Wild Season ticket is:

Lower Level, side of arena $86 (was $82 – increase of 5%)
Lower Level, corner of arena $75 (was $71 – increase of 6%)
Lower Level, behind the net $65 (was $60 – increase of 8%)
Upper Level, side of arena $38 (was $35 – increase of 9%)
Upper Level, behind the net $18 (was $16 – increase of 12.5%)

The increase of between 5 and 10 percent was what most Minnesota Wild fans expected and was what we predicted on our Wild tickets blog poll.

Interestingly enough, Club-level seats will stay at $85 for the side sections of the Xcel Energy Center and $75 for the end sections behind the nets. The 2008-09 season will be the final season of a three year term for Club level ticket holders so you can bet those seats will go up in the 2009-10 Wild season.

Single-game ticket prices will be announced later so check back often!
