Is it common to order season-tickets and not know where the seats are? I may be getting 2 season tix for the XL but not until I can confirm where they are. Should I wait or do I need to call to find out where they are?

I have had season tickets for 25+ years and never know exactly where they are. depends on how many points you have, how many others made donations that year and other factors

Wow. Did not know that. Good thing the world is filled with people who have different perspectives. I'm happy to pay good money for good value, but there is no way in hell I'd put down a nickel if they couldn't tell me where my seats were. Lame.

You can request to stay in an area, used to work for us in the past. But only because they weren't the best seats just perfect for a medium sized group to sit together. (old 328-329 area in back diagonal)

This year is different. You pick your own seats based on priority points. You will be given a time sometime in July-August. This is how it works for college sports usually.

32 bucks per game?
That includes the $2 surcharge for the upgrade of the athletic facilities. Tickets were $27 in the 2003-2004 season and then went to $30 the following season after the national championship. So that's no change in price in 13 years. I don't think we can complain.

I think they actually dropped the price to $25. for a stretch a few years back.

I can tell you where your seats are. They are in the 200's, Row L or so in the middle, or lower out to the side sections..

They should be paying us to sit through 3/4s of that conference schedule.

While 30/32 is the average price of tickets, they did have variable priced tickets last year. Wagner was $20 bucks and Cinci was $45, so for individual game ticket or resell, you may have issues getting 30 for a 20 dollar ticket.

^Usually late August/September.

Just as a fun thought exercise here in June; anyone wanna take any guesses on which games are at XL and which games are at Gampel (beyond what we already know)?

Correct. Been like that for a couple of years.


As mentioned, I wonder if they play with the face values of each game like they did last year. I expect Nova to be 40 to 50 dollars, and the exhibition game to be around 10. For a season ticket holder, it equates to 30 per game (plus the 2 dollar fee). In a way I like it better that way as it pisses me off to see them selling the exhibition tlgame for 10 dollars (one year if you nought a mini plan you got it for free even) when my ticket said 30 dollars on it. Charging me 20 dollars more for an exhibition, what a perk of being a season ticket holder! But by staggering the prices, the season ticket price better correlates with the single game seats (name brand teams costing more).
