When seats are available, what do they go for? $200? 300? In 2015 I tried to buy Pats-Cowboys tickets at Jerry World and the seats in the [B]top[/B] [B]row[/B] of the stadium went for $290. That's $870 for me and my two kids. Plus $75 for parking, etc. With food, we're near $1,000. Our marketing department needs to emphasize the value of attending a college football game. Run ads comparing the costs of a college game vs. an NFL game, side by side. I have to believe there are many families (like mine) willing to spend $150 for a college game instead of $1,000 for an NFL game. Here in Dallas, I've been going to SMU games since 1989 ($20 tickets, free parking). But I'll never go to another Cowboy game again. It's just not worth it. [/QUOTE]
