Message: [QUOTE="J187Money, post: 1988172, member: 718"] 35,000 * $25 average seat price = $875,000 less some expense I assume we have to "pay" to use the Rent on a per game basis. The math works on this. Remember - the donations per seat are for the season, and aren't actually per game. So I pay $100/seat/season for my tickets no matter if there are 6 or 7 home games. So the only thing the school loses is the variable cost of the tickets, which they charge $25 for season ticket holders, but some tickets are less. A sellout at $25/seat = $1M (again, less expenses). So when people beg and scream for coaches to be bought out, that costs money. The school wins here. AND, a UCONN game v BC at the Rent? NOBODY cares other than us and BC. A UCONN game v. BC at Fenway? Will be all over ESPN, etc - as an "event"...so we get paid a bunch of money and get a bunch of free marketing for the program. Oh, the horror! [/QUOTE]
