Ive said this before in outher forums, but we, the public, do not know the stats for ticket purchases like the marketing team does. Case in point, youve already forked over the 2k and are going already. How do we know that marketing isnt looking at the numbers, the fact that the big 3 hotels are practically completely sold for all of October and knowing that they dont have to spend their budget to get ticket sales because they are already getting ticket sales on pace or growing year over year.
The internet information is not what is going to drive net new ticket sales, in the first place. Internet sites and hype pages are pointed to fans who are, most likely, already going. Now, on the other hand, if you DID want to drive net new ticket sales, where is the television/billboard/print marketing in states like AL, GA, and SC? I am in these states often and see nothing about HHN, but I do see marketing of Universal as a destination.
Not to pick on any one person, but instead to aim a general statement at the sentiment, you say that you'd like to know what you've spent your money on, but you do know. We know that there will be several house mazes, long lines, alcohol, and fun scarezones to hang out and watch people get scared. Is there a possibility that if they announced a specific house you would call universal and cancel the whole thing?
