Sixers fans, professional basketball has returned to Philadelphia!
The NBA lockout has ended and the 2011-2012 season is officially underway. This means the return of the 76ers, their fans and the NBA’s biggest stars to Wells Fargo Center, very soon. During the offseason, the team welcomed a new ownership group, which has promised an even better fan experience during Sixers home games and lower ticket prices!
Schedule
On Tuesday, the Sixers released their truncated 66-game schedule which begins with two preseason games, with the second game at home on December 20. Then after a quick road trip to begin the regular season, the team returns to the Wells Fargo Center for four straight home games, beginning with the Detroit Pistons in their home opener on January 6, 2012.
Tickets
Tickets for the 2011-2012 season went on sale today and single game tickets and eight-game and ten-game packages are available for purchase.
The team also announced that tickets for all home games in January will cost just $17.76 (clever) or less for seats in the mezzanine level. Nice.

New Mascot Voting
The Sixers are looking for a new mascot and need the fans to help them decide, as three candidates are up for the position: “Big Ben” Franklin, B. Franklin Dogg and Phil E. Moose. Click here to read more about each character’s journey and vote for your favorite. We’re partial to Big Ben ourselves.
With the action finally about to begin on the court, we’re excited to see the Sixers are focused on making this a season worth waiting for!
Go Sixers!
