We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

Just so you know, I give my food ticket away to people who want to eat there. I don't eat there. It's the point that the administration doesn't care about the regular STH's unless you give them an extra few grand.

Call the marketing guy at 716-888-8482 if you want the full breakdown on costs, or go up to him at a game, or an event like Coaches Caravan. The Griffins' Den costs very real money and is not something that can be provided all the time.

As to not giving a crap about season ticket holders, that's not true. Anyone who asks for Griffins' Den vouchers, for NCAA ticket access, for time to play pick-up basketball on the court, time to have a youth basketball team or a performance group perform at a game, for better seats, extra tickets, extra giveaway items, access to talk online with a coach, autographs, discounts on merchandise, free tickets or merchandise for a charitable cause, an appearance by Petey or a coach or a player, flyers to stick up at an office, for some insider information, etc., it's rarely ever denied. The marketing guy is extremely accessible: 716-888-8482. Many season ticket holders call him and text him well after hours. The ticket office bends over backwards to help people.

You might say, "well, I shouldn't have to ask." The department pays to advertise on WGR (by the way, the Bills and Sabres just announced that they are bringing their broadcasts in-house instead of WGR just like Canisius did years ago). Canisius pays for ads on social media. They pay influencers. The department sends emails for relevant games. All the publicly available information about Canisius and their opponents for every sporting event is on GoGriffs.com. Information about promotions, opponents, games, parking, etc. is also available on Twitter/X, Instagram, and Facebook. It's all out there if people want it, and Canisius doesn't make it hard to find. It's all free. No donations or season tickets required.

Mike Kochczynski, is a super guy & very approachable. Send me an email, give him a call or talk to him at the games. He wants to provide a top fan / game day experience. Go Griffs!
