With the Indiana Pacers’ 2016-17 season tipping off this week — at home, Oct. 26 against Dallas — it’s a good time to catch up with Todd Taylor, the Pacers’ Senior Vice President/Chief Sales & Marketing Officer. This is his sixth season with the franchise.
Last year, he explained Hickory Nights, the process it took to make it happen, and what fans could expect. (Click here to listen to that podcast.)
For Pacers Sports & Entertainment, it is a big season. It’s their 50th season, so it’s as much about enjoying the current team as it is looking back to celebrate the team’s history and the individuals who contributed to where they are today.
