[Devils-list] I think this is true (although Rutgers should

[Princess Buttercup]

>From what I understand, season ticket holders do get some perks.  I know 
last summer every STH got to take their photo with the Cup, even the partial 
plans.  There's also a "Skate with the Devils" and someone told me about a 
luncheon with the team next week.  Granted, that might be for gold circle 
members only, but how many of us can afford that?  If I could afford gold 
circle I wouldn't be bent out of shape that there are package plans for the 
cheaper seats a few times a year.
