Arco seats 17,317. -- <font color="#000000">Sacramento Bee</font></p></div></div>
Sad news for the Kings. The fans trying to tell the organization that unless they change the current team, they won't go to games.</p> Petrie needs to be fired IMO. Hasn't done anything for the past 3 years.</p>
It is because they have the 6th highest price tickets in the league and a non playoff team for the second year in a row.</p> All of the fair-weather fans who would pay lots of money to go to Arco because it was the hip thing to do aren't going anymore, and all of the real fans are priced out of the game.</p>
What do you expect -- we'll win like 30 games this year and all we have of value is Bibby, KMart, and a couple of young guys (Douby and Garcia) IMO. The rest is a bunch of scrubs and Artest.</p>
