Baseball tickets

After 40 years of support, Frenchie is absolutely correct to feel this way.

Thanks 71. I have been criticized for my feelings about this. So be it.

Many have stated that they wanted to be priced out. I feel for you Frenchie!

Exactly where does the school regard loyalty over dollars. Is it a decade, two decades, or four in the case of Frenchie?

Frankly I think some things should be an executive decision by TJoe. The rule doesn’t apply for this guy but that one yes it does. Maybe he’d get into some kind of legal issues unless he had reserved X number of exemptions when setting up the RCAF seating status. But there’s always somebody that gets left out.

I do know they didn't keep records for season ticket holders past about 2000.

The point is I am tapped out. And I am not buying my way in. After 40 years of support and some big contributor who probably don't make games get a call and offered prime seating just rubs me the wrong way. Yes I heard many say you have to go big if you want to be big.

No problem Frenchie. You presented a problem you are having and I suggested other ways you could help the program. Didn’t insinuate that you needed “buy your way in”. Good luck with your tickets.

I do agree with you on one thing that sticks in my craw: seeing prime seats going empty. I mean, it is certainly their right to attend or not, and I apprecaite their much needed generosity, but I sure wish they'd take one last step and make sure that someone is in their seats if they can't make it. At the very least, sell them....which is very easy to do.
But for the most part this is a problem at every school and for most sports. It is pretty rare to see a completely SRO crowd.

This is another opportunity for a solution. Problem would be the protocal on admittance. For baseball supporters over the age of 70 with proven years of support to baseball, establish a seating area, maybe 20 seats, so an exclusive club called the Old Timers Circle. You guys can guess the rest, but surely there is a way to grandfather (pun intended) guys like Frenchie in...

Contributions were frozen December 31st. And, those rankings as of December 31st will be used for seat allocation.

They extended it through the end of last week, I think, per RCAF. there were technical issues with the website playing nice with LUS Fiber.

I just heard that only a little over 800 season tickets are sold in the grandstands. Some may have 4-6 and some might have, like a company, 20-25 seats or more. Anyone here that?

[BeauCajun]

I would be surprised if they sold that many.

No, I had not heard that, but since they only started selling yesterday, that seems like a lot. I wonder what capacity will be capped at?

Yes, my ranking dropped 15 spots from time of softball allocation. Hopefully I still make the cut.
