What is it with NHL franchises and the success of all-you-can-eat hockey? Today, this showed up on Bruins.com:

The Boston Bruins unveiled their “Hungry for Hockey” season ticket package today. This plan gives fans full season tickets as well as the opportunity to enjoy all-you-can-eat hot dogs, pretzels, nachos, popcorn and soft drinks during every home game.

The “Hungry for Hockey” seats are located in sections 327 and 328, rows 2-15. Prices are $39.00 per seat, per game, which totals $1,677.00 for the season.

This isn’t the first time this kind of promotion has shown up in the NHL. The St. Louis Blues, for instance, have made a screaming success of the public’s desire to eat crap on “Super Tuesdays”, as has at least one other team that I can’t recall right now.

But maybe I’m just jealous… either for the fantasy of $39 hockey tickets, or the idea of a bottomless hot dog stand. I can’t decide.
