Letter from Gene Bartow

Dear Grizzlies MVP,

On behalf of the Grizzlies organization, I want to personally thank you for your support throughout the 2007-08 season. We understand it's been a trying year on and off the court, and your faith in both your team, and in the front office's plan for building a winner, have solidified my belief that Memphis indeed has the truest and most loyal basketball fans in the country.

Looking ahead to 2008-09, I believe it's time the Grizzlies begin to do more to recognize and reward that loyalty.

With that in mind, we're introducing a new, system-wide set of programs to repay your devotion. I think you'll appreciate the amount of thought and work that have gone into what we consider the largest, most fan-focused initiative in Grizzlies history.

You can read more about the upcoming changes by visiting the links located on the right side of this page, but for now, I'm also pleased to announce that once again, renewing MVPs will experience no increase in ticket prices over last season. There will be, however, a slight reformatting of our seating chart and general pricing structure. This should serve to simplify things for all fans, making seat selection and renewal a more streamlined process.

If you have any questions about your invoice, the new structures, or any of your new benefits and services, please contact your personal Account Service Executive at 901.888.HOOP.

Tomorrow is a new day, and it's one that I believe promises greatness for Memphis both as a team and as a city. Once again, I'd like to thank you, and all our True Fans, for being there for your team.

Yours Truly,

Gene Bartow

President, Hoops LP
