STH for UM Football and St. John's Basketball. Everyone is bumping the prices.
St. John's bumped STs 30% since last season.

Why do we have alcohol free sectionsView attachment 333311View attachment 333312I just checked the school site. Sections 332 and 232 are the only ones with a lot of tickets still available. Both are the non alcohol sections. The other sections with tickets available all have very few remaining - anywhere from 2 to 20 each.
then we cannot complain when its sold out. Athens, SB, Tuscaloosa has a lower cost of living than SFL.Sporting events are expensive. Bigger games are more expensive. I don't know what else to tell some of you.
I don’t understand their thought process with this. Who is monitoring that this is “alcohol free”…. And to your point tickets should be dirt cheap because of the alcohol free marketingWhy do we have alcohol free sectionsthose seats should be like 50 bucks max.
Hard rock stadium seats about 65K which is way too big for us.It will be loud and crazy.
Really dont care if we had to drive 45 minutes for our own stadium
But due to not having the in state graduates of these enormous state schools a smaller 60K soccer style stadium really would be tremendous. Not happening I know. Winning and big opponents will bring fans. But even when we play a Stanford at home a 60K stadium could be pretty filled and loud.
That being said even at 90% that stadium should be rocking...esp if we throw a haymaker early.

Our athletic department and ticketing office are a total joke
So you think it makes sense to spend several hundred million dollars to build a "soccer style" stadium with 60k seats when they already have a super bowl quality NFL stadium with 65k seats? And let me guess, it should be close to campus so they can get a larger percentage of the massive 12k student body to go to the games.
I'm sure the school did the math and realized that they make more money selling 80% of the tickets at crazy prices than 100% at reasonable prices, but they're pricing out the hometown fans. It's ridiculous.
Typical overreaction. Probably a few hundred ( a good portion of which are probably nosebleeds) seats left and you guys are acting like there are going to be significant areas of empty seats. It’s not going to happen. HR will be rocking.
To this point, I have two club level season tickets… and knowing that my dad and brother were coming for the ND game I purchased four upper bowl sideline season tickets.Here's the thing. The SEASON tix didn't go up that much. And there are 8 games. So errrbody on this board should have bought season tix, and then sold the ones they weren't using.
Now...it's a different thing. Radakovich put a premium price (single-game) on ND and Florida games.
This is the new norm for big games. People gotta get out more.We were fourth on the list of most expensive games this weekend. Ohio state Texas being the most based on cheapest ticket available. Must be nationwide
I used to work in venues. 18+ shows always cost more than 21+ because they won't make bar money on 100% of attendees so they tack it on to the ticket priceI don’t understand their thought process with this.

What TF else is there to do in Knoxville or Lincoln or College Station? There is serious competition for entertainment dollars in Miami. Same reason USC doesn't sell out.Lots of schools selling 150% of our stadiums capacity at that price on a weekly basis, or every other home game and ours are complaining about the biggest game this program has played at home in more than 20 years being this price.
I just paid $150 a ticket to see ETSU at UT.
It’s a big selling point to the other conferences we want to go that we sell out and we fail to do it.
They’re going to have massive problems moving tickets next year with how terrible the home schedule is
