Let’s Talk Some Baseball

Agree on clearing the grandstand. If you want to raise prices do it gradually and let the market dictate the outcome.

That’s how we think because we’ve made a living in the private sector. Where supply and demand mean something.

I’m not 100% sure on the pricing, but sections 106-110 will once again go through a reseating. Your RCAF donation for the right to purchase a ticket will be close to double the current cost per seat. The actual season ticket per seat will be at least one third higher.

That'll price me out of 106. I'm not bitter, but it is a bit of a headscratcher. You're giving every single season ticket holder in the grandstand 3 options: renew at higher rate, move to bleachers, watch for $5/month on ESPN+.

Hope they make the bleacher prices/packages appealing otherwise option 3 will look really good to a lot of folks unfortunately. Dangerous game the decision makers play.

It's not even that from what I'm understanding... NO option to renew for anyone. TOTAL clearing of the grandstand and re-seating all available seats... just like we did several years ago. From scratch. Gradually raise prices/requirements... OK. Fine. Market will dictate.

TOTAL clearing of the grandstand and starting from scratch. Mind boggling why they would do that and unacceptable - and I'm done in that scenario. Based on what cajun4life said... this is what is coming...

Oh wow, I misunderstood. Lol what are they doing? Holy ____.

Edit: Also misunderstood C4L's deets message. Won't necessarily get priced out, I initially read that as season ticket seat prices doubling.

But yea, reseating. What they doing????

[CajunVic]

. . . why pick on just the grandstand . . .

[RaisingCajun08]

Hope administration didnt take this decision lightly. When the time comes, wife and I will discuss. Potentially going to be a tough pill to swallow after being a grandstand ticketholder since 2003. Many have been for much longer than I have.

This decision will definitely affect how I support football. If baseball goes, football is a no brainer.

And yet, free entry to WBB, WSOC and VB…

[cajun4life]

But fans expect to compete with Ms state in regionals and super regionals?

Are we bringing 15,000 per game?

They are increasing the season ticket prices. By a substantial margin, along with the seat licensing fees. It’s a dramatic increase. Look for your total price per seat to increase by 40%.

As it should be. Those programs will only thrive off of direct donations. Volleyball is also building a phenomenal atmosphere that will continue to grow.

No. And we as fans shouldn’t expect to compete with SEC schools who do. Get what you pay for. If we want to pay SLC prices for tickets expect SLC caliber ball.

Any idea when this will be announced? Re-seating effective for 2024? Those renewals already went out... Deadline to renew end of October, if I recall.
