It would pack the place.
Kids 12 & under are free, and we have $5-off coupons at available at numerous locations. Since we are a track rental, we don't get concession sales, and we don't charge for parking, so we cannot benefit from a free ticket model in the way that others may. We're a 2-man show (1 is in NC), so just the time and manpower to handle such a distribution is outside of our scope, at least so far. We've been working on this show for 18 months, but there never seems to be enough time or resources to do everything you'd like. Thankfully, the groundwork has been laid so we can hot the ground running for 2015. To do it right, this event is really a full time job in itself. It's been a juggling act with my graphic design business.

You are right that there's more that needs to be done. We'll keep working on it, not only for this year but for next! Even today, I was working on some programs for 2015.
