As Strike Darkens Broadway, Nets Dangle Ticket Swap
Marketing Daily
By Karl Greenberg
Ticket holders of Broadway shows affected by the current strike are being offered discounts to upcoming New Jersey Nets games.
The author of this article is still behind the curve, though, in thinking that the Nets could be playing in Brooklyn in 2009:
A big change for the team will come during the 2009-10 season--when the team picks up stakes and moves to Brooklyn, where FCR is building a massive, much-publicized (pro and con) Frank Gehry-designed city-within-a-city near downtown Brooklyn. Plans call for the nets will be housed in the complex's centerpiece venue, Barclays Center.
NoLandGrab: Developer Bruce Ratner has already acknowledged that an arena cannot be ready for the 2009-2010 season.
