There is a waiting list a mile long for one of those spots. $8500 is nothing. They will fill in for those who drop out within 15 minutes
Ehh pay up. The price that people have been paying was relatively cheap, all things considering. $8500 might be a little steep, but if you love socializing and hanging out that much, you'll make it happen
I'll jump on one for $8500, in a second!
Yep need to recover revenues Cohen spent on construction
You can blame Cohen for a lot of things, but the dude ain?t one of them. It would probably cost us 2.5 times today to build the dude. Now we?ve got a stadium for the next 50 years. Also, I think the lounges are currently like $2500. That?s incredibly cheap.
Why not put them up for bids and let the market set the price ?
Nah. They?d all be bought up by corporate and there would be nobody in them. Not to mention I think the original folks should have first shot as long as they want them. Baseball and basketball are dependent on locals. One of the reasons the hump struggles to fill up is because a lot of those folks got pushed out years ago.
Selmon doing work. Next item after Lounge Pricing is moving Faculty-Staff to nose bleeds
be careful of the safe spacers*******
I will take one of their spots for 10k right now for next season.
Faculty /Staff tickets should only be allowed to be used with a faculty ID and it has to match the ticket. And they need to be moved to the worst spots in the stadium.
Football suites are what, like $30,000? Scoreboard club is like $1,800/person.
High time for baseball to catch up.
We lose money on baseball each year but have the most support. Time to recoup some of that. I think they should increase LFL to at least $20k as well as an increase to chairbacks after the 10-year rights are up. Plenty of people with money that would pay to have baseball tickets.
I think the only thing with baseball pricing wise that?s a little bit wonky is LFL. They?ve had a pretty low point, and it?s time to up that. Everything else is priced pretty fair.
So the LFL'ers should stop handing out so much food so they can cover next years increase.
I?m sure everything will go up slightly at some point. I was more talking about your ?club level? type spaces, not regular chairbacks. I consider LFL a club level type product. Omaha, triple crown, LFL, etc. out of all of those, LFL is dirt cheap. The others are priced pretty fair and will likely get a bump up as all tickets do.
Tell you what, you can have my Omahas, triple crowns and chairbacks, and I?ll take your LFL spot and pay the $8500. Deal?
Selmon came out himself on twitter Sunday and said that these rumors were a lie.
The hump struggles because our fanbase doesn’t care about basketball unless it’s winning big. There’s no major issue with the Hump right now and won’t be so long as we keep winning. Baseball has filled up the past 2 years with the worst team in the league. It’s not the same.
Easy there turbo. Sounds like somebody regrets not committing for 10 years. It wasn?t an apples to apples comparison. But a Wednesday night in November for basketball has as many or more than a Wednesday night in March against Alcorn for baseball. And weekends certainly arent apples to apples between the two as you get 3 baseball games vs a 2 hour basketball game.
Basketball has basically been in purgatory for 2 decades, we just won a national championship a few years ago in baseball and have been good for 50 years.
I don’t regret anything. I don’t want LFL seats or season tickets for baseball. I want a sport that loses money and has the best facilities to start paying for itself by people getting charged what the demand is for tickets. I don’t care if Hugh freeze is sitting in the lounge with midget strippers from the Pony, so long as he pays the market rate.
They probably shoudn't have been that cheap but there is also value to having a crowd on a Wednesday night game. No idea of how to strike the right balance.
Do many LFL areas sit empty on midweek games? I'd be fine with upping the price provided that people that buy them and then don't fill them get penalized, but that'd be a headache to administer and then there is the challenge of telling somebody paying you 5 figures a year that you are unhappy with how they use the seats they paid for.
