Season Ticket

By Michael Cousineau ($17.95)

Imagine owning a magic ticket to every concert and hockey game in the new hometown arena.

Night after night, the author discovered that the stories in the stands sometimes rivaled the ticketed event itself.

You will go into the locker room to hear from the players and coaches. And read journal entries from Monarchs players Marcel Cousineau and Dane Jackson.

You'll also learn how one Manchester family managed to spend $3,000 at the arena in just six months.

Find out why the author:

- Walked in the footsteps of the most popular person in the arena.

- Made a beer run with the Monarchs after a road game.

- Joined one singer's fan club so he could meet her after the show.

- Came face to face with Big Bird.

- Followed a green haired teenager to meet a rock band.

If you couldn't get tickets, read about the event you missed. And if you were there, find out what happened behind the scenes.

Michael Cousineau's road trips to every Major League ballpark whetted his appetite for this book about Manchester's first major league sporting venue. As a reporter and an obsessive sports fan, he followed the arena from its infancy in architectural drawings to its elaborate grand opening and through its event-packed first season.
