— Spokane Chiefs (@spokanechiefs) December 6, 2019

People talk a lot about analytics taking over sports, and clearly it is big in Spokane.

The CHL team had a big night on December 7th and clarified it all in one easy to follow chart for fans (see above). Their night included a trifecta of attractions: Feast night, Teddy Bear Toss and a game against a rival.

Family Feast Nights : The Chiefs offer a range of highly affordable concession items, including:

• $1 popcorn
• $1 Coca-Cola products (12 oz. cans)
• $1.50 hot dogs
• $2 licorice rope
• $2 popsicles (Fudgsicle®-style)

“We’re excited to be able to expand the menu for Chiefs fans and offer more items at discounted rates, including the long-awaited return of popcorn to the list,” said vice president of sponsorships Jay Stewart. “The addition of the popsicle and licorice rope also gives us a couple great value dessert options.”

The game was also a big rivalry game against the hated Tri-City Americans.

Finally the game was Spokane’s night for the Teddy Bear Toss. The team drew 10,422 for the night, which is about double their average. Take that for data.

You can see more on the Teddy Bear Toss in our PULSE: Teddy Bear Toss article and on the October 2018 Podcast.
