Wow.....socialism at it's finest, huh?
So in your mind the Cajun fans should pull together and buy tickets to support our Football program so that.......other Sunbelt members can take the profit!?!? This makes me want to buy my bowl game tickets from the Superdome rather than UL ticket office just to prevent other Sunbelt programs from mooching so much.
Here's an idea, how about the A-State and other Sunbelt team fan bases support their own damn team and stop waiting on someone else to do it for them?!?
Even the year I wasn't able to make the N.O. bowl I still bought a ticket to the bowl game to support my team. I know several other Cajun fans who did the same. If A-State fans had this mind set of supporting their football program you wouldn't have to be on another University's message board begging for handouts.

It's the way SBC Revenue shares. You guys only keep 50 percent of what you actually make in tickets. The rest goes to the conference which used to finance the trips of everyone who lost money
In most years this hasn't been an issue because the SBC has rarely had a situation where someone got sent to a far flung bowl. But ESPN vetoed Arkansas State/Central Michigan in Montgomery, so we got sent to Orlando. Then you have USA which missed out on a more local tied non SBC Bowl, and instead is getting sent to Tuscon.
We haven't needed your ticket sales in the past because we've been great at selling tickets for bowls, but Orlando is too far for fans to travel, so this year we need the money.
Interesting info in the email I received regarding the game.
"As an added bonus, RCAF Annual Fund donors who purchase tickets to the bowl game prior to the December 9th priority deadline will receive additional RCAF Priority Points added to their current point total. These points will be reflected in the accumulative point total in the donor’s account. Fans purchasing up to four bowl game tickets will receive five additional RCAF Priority Points. Fans purchasing five bowl tickets or more will receive a total of 10 additional priority points."
I went to the Web site but didn't see the bowl game
