I'm no F. Lee Bailey...but I've heard through the grapevine that it is.

Wow, well that would make all the sense in the world now wouldn't it!

Sell 50/50 tickets and anounce the winner after the game.

I had the same thought! Works for baseball!

people leave in droves after they announce 50/50 in the 8th...let the pot be 5,6,7k and announce after game...you will keep all those people.

They should even think about splitting the pot between 2 fans and letting it be 25% / 25% / 50%... that way you get more winners and the football program is the big winner.

I don't like the incentive-based marketing to get students to the games. I want a disincentive system. I volunteer to run the "Ragin Cajun Hunger Games". I'm having my lawyers review my program, so forgive me for not providing details.

Nothing says high school level football...than a ____ing 50/50 raffle.

The New Orleans Saints started selling 50/50 tickets about two years ago. The pot is usually $30,000 to $40,000 (or more) each game. They give 50% to a different charity each game and some lucky fan gets to take $15,000/$20,000 home that they didn't show up with! The pot wouldn't be that big, but I don't think anyone would complain about winning $5,000/$10,000 and walking out of Cajun Field with that money in their pocket!
So I strongly disagree that doing a 50/50 would scream "High School" level! The Lottery doesn't get to be worth 700 million dollars because people aren't willing to take a chance and do a little gambling!

Saints? You just proved my point.

I wonder what 1/2 price beer in the 4th Q would do for student stamina.
