Go ahead and sue them. Go ahead! File the class action!

You won’t.

The only guarantee from this is UConn is going to make a ton more money by doing the reseating/premium seating. That is a lock.

Up until the next down cycle when the casuals leave en masse and they’re doing the hat in hand routine to the long terms.

Agree we pick Tuesday, which is 2 days after you since Monday is a Holiday. We were in 121 last 4 years and loved them. gonna be some tough decisions ahead.

I screwed up. We are picking next Thursday, so you're ahead of me.
 
They broke their promise for forever seats so they can give away the candy store.

Right, wrong or indifferent, the season ticket holders were sold out. The poppycock about needing to reseat is just word salad. They'll push us out the door if they can

I was optimistic, I'm pissed
 
for those that have already selected their new seats, how satisfied or upset are you?
 
You should’ve seen this coming when they opened their pockets to the corporate partners leading up to the 2024 NCAAT.
 
They're saying nobody can buy additional seats. I'm suggesting the really big donors were allowed to buy additional seats. Either that, or they were encouraged to buy cheap seats the last two years with the promise they'll get whatever they want in May of 2025

This is just my opinion but I think the cooperate sponsors are the main issues. I just doubt people who have given the program $1million+ dropped season tickets.

I know they added some at the $100k level the past year but I would also assume most were in the system and just gave more.

Yes.

They gave corporate sponsors a ton of FF tickets last year and I know one company worked with UConn to get a private suite. Unfortunately it’s the act of doing business, at some point the most loyal folks just become numbers and it gets cut throat.

The worst of it was the months of pent up anxiety re: what would be available. There were so many seats taken by school folks and other VIPs it just added to the fear.
In the end, our XL seats were equivalent and GP, close enough.

From guys I’ve spoken to, those with questionably grandfathered seats/points got screwed as well as those who still owe on past pledges.

And I’m sure some sponsors are NIL related

Unfortunately we will both be dissapointed.

Not as disappointed as me with my June 5 date. I understand the financial strain and NIL changes. Doesn’t make this any easier. My only solace is that like the old AT&T the cartel will eventually destroy college athletics

I am picking next Fri....so, I'll be watching carefully; if I can't what I want in Gampel- then it's Seat Geek for me to go to the games I want....at least their business methods are transparent.

You’ve been with the athletic department a long time like me and seen how fickle this fan base is. Just wait until there’s a program drop off (anyone think Hurley will be a career UConn guy?) and the fair weathers leave, that’s when the fun really starts. If we do get decent seats again I’ll of course do the seat donations but my days of extracurricular donating to the AD are over, no more pledge drives, no more buying and donating bowl game tickets, etc
 
I picked at 11:39, I'm content although I was thinking I might do better

Good luck people, I'm glad my stress and planning is behind me. I'm telling you, I didn't miss this nonsense the last few years :cool:
 
Big Red is behind me in the next section over. Hopefully they’re not moving him other than to the other side because that’s gonna be a student section now.
