At one, you bought a pass that was good for all sporting events during the year. It was like $120 (probably a little higher now) and gave you tickets to all the football games and you could show the pass to get in at no extra cost to the basketball, volleyball, soccer, or whatever other sporting events. If you didn't have the pass, you'd have to buy regular tickets to football, basketball, etc. At the other school, which was definitely a football first university, you could get a discounted season pass for football, but it was still expensive and I never went to a game. You could get basketball tickets for $2 a piece. I guess that was mostly so that the people who reserved them put something down and it's more likely they'll actually use them versus having free tickets. I went to a couple of basketball games while I was there. Can't ask for a better deal on power conference basketball tickets. UConn is obviously in a different situation than either of those universities but I think it's pretty normal for students to pay something at least for tickets. My sister's university has free basketball tickets for students but it's a smaller school in a smaller D1 conference. For whatever all of that was worth. Probably nothing. [/QUOTE]
