Our group decided today to sell our remaining season tickets and not renew next year.

We can’t justify spending any more money on this train.

I heard many saying the same thing in the radio.

I was offered free tickets to the Chargers game...wasn’t shocked to see the stadium half empty.

Expecting to see the same in AZ vs Detroit

As a longtime suffering Cardinals fan I'm glad I don't live in Arizona, because I'd be stupid enought to buy season tickets to this garbage, and feel guily wasting them. If Wilks is still around next season, I'll do my part and cancel my Directv season pass and watch the stinking Cowboys or the AFC game every weekend. I live in Oklahoma and it's Cowboys every week or the stinking Browns because of Mayfield. At least it used to be the Chiefs.

Just get Red Zone. That's what I watch all day.

One year of bad football and everyone's throwing the baby out with the bath water. I didn't renew for this season (I knew it was going to be a bad year, and traveling 600 miles in one day for a three hour game was wearing on me), but I'll be back for sure. The ship will be righted at some point, and the games are too fun to miss.

I personally can't understand the people who prefer to sit at home over the game time atmosphere, unless you have health issues or little kids. But to each their own.

I went to one NFL game in Chicago, back in the Jake Plummer days, horrible time. Games are too long, too boring with several 'breaks' for commercials or whatever is occurring. You couldn't pay me to attend another game, even if the Cards were in the Super Bowl, I would rather watch at an outdoor sports bar.

Wow, how do you even sit through a game on TV then?

I also wouldn't stick with one horrible game nearly 15 years ago as your only experience. I'm guessing it was a loss, too. With no other Cardinals fans in sight.

I miss a lot at the game and hate the commute :shrug: The full day commitment is a bit much for me. And I have kids.

To each their own. Games are fun, so is the other stuff I do all around the game instead of driving.

Every year I say I'm not going to renew, but my ticket partner always wants to. I'm NOT renewing this coming season - he can buy me out, lol.

But I agree with Sean - miss a lot during the game, hate the commute, and it is an entire day lost.

I always loved game day when we lived in AZ, still do for that matter. We do a game every year, this year might be the exception. I have been to at least one live cards game a year since 1988. Going this weekend to keep the streak alive.
