Nets offer discounts for disappointed theatergoers

laura-small.jpgThe Nets deserve credit for their aggressive, creating marketing stunts. It will be even better when they move to Brooklyn and Long Islanders can take advantage of said gimmicks without crossing any rivers.

Anyway, here's the latest: The team is offering 50 percent discounts to two games Friday and Saturday night to would-be theatergoers who were shut out of Broadway by the stagehands strike. They need only show their unused theater tickets at the Izod Center box office.

The team also will offer 50 percent discounts to fans who present used theater tickets.

Does my stub from "Pippin'' in 1974 count?

Hey, gotta find your "Corner of the Sky," right?

You have a stub from "Pippin", gosh I have one of those stubs too. My high school English class had to see it. I would have rather seen the ABA Nets play on Long Island in '74.

I saw the Nets play Game 7 of the NBA semis against the Spurs at the Coliseum in whatever year that was. '76?

Typo! I meant that ABA semis, obviously.

I remember the game, and Rich Jones and Julies Erving having a incredible finish to take the Nets onward. It would have been tough if Billy "The Salty Dog" " Whopper" Paultz and Spurs won the last ABA crown.
