Selling unclmed spots isn’t kicking someone out. What price point should be? Should be a bid process starting with a full season to game day only.

Great point by 71, and even weirder that their other events schedule clears up and ours doesnt is that if i am not mistaken our schedule is usually announced sooner
For the record, I’m not all in on free, first come first serve, but will say it’s not the end of the world if the admin decides to try it. Need some shock value to spark interest. Also, whether you want to believe it or not, some of you “30 year loyal fans” will get priced out or hurdled by big money if we do get to the point we want to. Just look back to the point system that had to be implemented for post season tickets because some got their panties in a wad after big money poured in for the access to tickets.
Edit: point is simple economics. Demand is low, supply is high. Lower prices now until demand increases. When that flips and shows sustainment, raise the prices.
Sounds like your kids were not into these things. There's people missing Tiger games for the same reasons.Quote:

Again, its about (as much as possible) making a UL game the event of the weekend. I used BR simply as a reference. If I looked hard enough, could probably find a bunch more...I'll never fault parents for missing an event because of a childs game etc. What I will do is call out those who continue to schedule competing events against UL Football. Like I said, 5 Saturdays out of 52 weeks...Quote:

Keeping people at their event for a full day keeps the cash flowing to the concession stand.Quote:
