Miami football announces that the season-ticket sales are almost GONE in the lower bowl

[Trinton Breeze]

Following a successful 10-3 season, the hype is real for the Miami Hurricanes football program, with just 69 days remaining until their opening game against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Hard Rock Stadium is expected to be quite packed for all the games this year.

According to the university, 96% of the lower bowl tickets have been sold out, with many available seats being singles. Thus, you can anticipate a full house in the lower bowl throughout the upcoming season...

just because the lower bowl is sold out, doesn't mean they'll show up.

faulty logic here, meng

Well, no. But as much as I pay attention to the tickets, this is a big step forward for the program. Previous years including last year, don’t think we was close.

According to the university, 96% of the lower bowl tickets have been sold out, with many available seats being singles. Thus, you can anticipate a full house in the lower bowl throughout the upcoming season.

Here’s what the seating map currently looks like, with 69 days left until the kickoff of the first game against Notre Dame:

While it may not be sold out, this still shows a significant improvement compared to previous years. The Hurricanes faithful have listened to the message this year.

Even when looking at individual tickets, such as for the Notre Dame game—which is 10 weeks away—you'll notice that the lower bowl tickets are sold out except for those on the Notre Dame side, and about half of the upper seats are also sold out. If you want to attend that game, you should act quickly.

Let’s sell this whole thing out.

10-3 with no ACC title appearance, no bowl win and no playoff appearance is not a successful season. Especially when you had the number 1 overall pick and the best offense in school history.

First, we have semi-occasionally sold out the lower bowl in the past 20 years. It really depends on our slate of games.

This year, we have EIGHT home games, including UF and Notre Dame.

Sooo...yeah...it was gonna sell out, eventually.

Have you SEEN the resale prices on those two games?

Yea like rsa says, those people gonna show up for USF at 2:30pm? I personally knew many season ticket holders that didn't even try to give away their tickets for the meh games. Its a real issue. Wish there was a better way for the broke-a$$ fans to get ahold of those tickets.

Bro we are now in the era of BIG MONEY SPENDING at UM. Miami will be winning 10+ games consistently and in the playoffs no matter what anyone thinks on this forum so I hope not but I'm thinking a single ticket to a 2:30pm game vs USF will soon be expensive $200+ isntead of $65 = broke fans get resell nosebleeds at $390+ for prime-time slots.

South Florida sports are fun when they are winning but unless you make bank or specifically manage your expenses and plans for the season tickets or certain big-time games you won't be attending if you're broke lol

Example: FL Panthers cheapest game 6 tickets were $890 for really ****** seats.

I haven't lived in South FL for many years now so I guess that's how it is and that sucks. My dad and I used to routinely get $5 tickets outside the stadium even during the national championship years. **** sometimes they'd straight hand us tickets for free if it was close enough to kickoff.

 

[Hurracanes]

Beat ND and I expect this season to break records of ticket sales. Winning, phenomenal home schedule and 8 home games will do that.

This is why you don’t just let people sit in the lower bowl to make the stadium “look more full” against weaker opponents. The lower level seats are essentially sold out for every game. There’s nothing the athletic department can do about people buying tickets and not showing up for the game or arriving late and leaving early. Maybe they can incentivize actually showing up but that’s unlikely since they get their money either way

Nah. You could still get cheap tickets even when the team was winning national championships every other year. Maybe not for Notre Dame or Florida State but if you wanted to go to a home game against some Big East bum school, you could get tickets really cheap. Tickets get expensive in Miami for EVENTS. Panthers Finals games are EVENTS. Regular season college football games against Ball State will never be a big deal.

How do you incentivize? Legitly asking…

For one, don't get steamrolled by the MTSUs of the world. Take a knee when victory is assured. Dominate lesser opponents like we used to. Luckily these things seem to be in the rear-view mirror as recruiting is off the charts and even though last year didn't end the way we wanted, still was only the 2nd time in 21 years we've won 10 games...

Could offer something for those that have every ticket scanned in at the stadium (ultimately doesn't matter if it's the season ticket holder or someone else, as long as someone shows up).

First two things that come to mind
1. Offer a rebate or discount of some sort for next season's ticket renewal.
2. Offer an upgrade for next season (parking, concessions, or something like that).

Miami hasn't had a good season since 2003 which was the last time we finished ranked in the top 10.

 

[hurricaneman]

A big part of our attendance problems stems from the fact that we play in the ACC and there are no teams that are big draws for casual fans. ACC teams are rarely ranked and have little to no pedigree. This years schedule is how every year should be. I want out of the ACC so badly.

UCLA jumps into the BIG10 and they have Penn State, Nebraska, and Washington at home this year. In a couple years they'll get Michigan, Oregon, USC, and Wisconsin at home. USC next year gets Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin at home.

Next year we go FAMU, Central Michigan, BC, FSU, Pitt, Va Tech. Like...it's a f***ing travesty that, as fans, we're dealing with home schedules like that 90% of the time. We can win the national championship this year and nobody is going to show up for that garbage schedule in 2026.

There are AAC teams with better home schedules than us.

I had a discussion with another member on the subject in a similar thread a while back. He suggested offering discounted concessions. I said maybe discounting the following season’s tickets. I don’t know how feasible it would be though
