Thread: New Survey

    See I like that idea for the the NEZ, it would be a way for family with kids and young ones to stand watch a game, and get a drink. We even could put something out there for kids.

    Well this is how I think about it. We have to create a vibe or buzz and it has to be cool to go to the game . There is certain ways to do this

    1. Winning
    2. Level of Competition
    3. Create a Tailgate/Party type atmosphere etc.

    We need to do it by creating something unique, like the Terrace with the bar but it would never work if people are going to have to pay 100 bucks. If you just charged regular price to sit on the NEZ with something like the Terrace you will spend the extra to get a drink, and to have a good time.

    Same with the idea of a Championship Square. If we put something like that where the Cox building Is then we could have live concerts and hang out before the game. Get money from actually tailgaters which is another revenue stream, sell funnel cakes, and chicken on a stick etc.

    If we create something at the top on the Concourse level on the visitor side with bar stools and table and tv's it would be no problem for visitors, students, and fans just to want to sit up there because you created something that has that party type atmosphere.

    We are not in the bar business. People associate having a good time around here with drinking, eating, and talking. Well let's bring that to Cajun Field. Every game needs to be like a Festival.

    In the deserve dept. I don't think current students deserved to be evicted as a way of rewarding past students.

    Students are your past, present, and future of every University's relative athletic existence.

    Students are your money backbone.

    There is no model that pays bigger 'forever' dividends than students at the 50.

    As long as we are in the Sunbelt. I'm tapping out at $50-$55 per seat for premium seating.

    If we were in another G5 league, maybe $70 per seat. Anything above that for college football, we would have to be in a P5 conference. Also remember, in addition to the ticket cost, there's usually a RCAF fee for premium seating.

    Turbine,

    I agree with your premise in general, as many of us on this board are former students. But can you provide any other examples of Universities that "reserve" 50 yard line seats strictly for students? I can't answer that question myself, but would be shocked to learn that this is a policy at many schools (if any), much less at any consistently successful programs.

    I'm just giving a marketing growth philosophy.

    I know of no university that is geared for long term growth. Instead they go for immediate return.

    A student on the 50 will recruit. A student up in the elsewhere may not even admit going to the game.

    Again just thoughts, no iron clad examples.

    Students were all along the visitor side when we played them a few years ago

    TAMU is at 50 in middle & upper decks. ROTC is lower. They also get the sun side like UL BUT they PAY for it. Ticket costs are added into studwnt costs if you attend games or not. Over $500 semester. Students are vested into & as such almost always show up.

    Want 50.....pay for it

    RCAF Fee policy may be revised due to the new tax laws.
