College football ticket prices soar

Shipped off 2 tickets to one of the Divison Four....1 AAAAAA games that Florida plays this year.....USF.....for the meager price of $135.00 per ticket in the frigging end zone.

Guess nobody was interested in that boring match-up..... :wink: 8)

 

That is half what my boss got for his tickets against San Jose State.

I believe he got somewhere around $800 a ticket for his Penn State/Alabama tickets.

 

Impressive....where are his seats?

 

I want to say they are by the visitor's tunnel/entrance.

 

What does he have his Florida tickets listed for ......$150.00?

Damn.....the visitors tunnel must come directly out of the 50 yard line.

I paid $160 a piece for 2 in the end zone for Ole Miss.

 

Ralph, if you're interested, I could hook you up with two tickets to one of our non-existent non-conference games in the garden spot right behind the Buckeye bench hard on the 50 for a measly $2,450 apiece......!

 

I see the Florida tix are running for "$230 - $1500'... I believe his seats are about 9 rows up from the field.. maybe 20/30 yard line. I don't know if he's selling those.

 

I suspected the visitors tunnel must be on the sideline in a good location given the prices that he has already been getting.

Similarly placed tickets for UF-USF are going for $200-300.

For a game like UF-LSU the same seats are anywhere from $400-800.

 

I'm very interested in those tickets Will you accept my non-existent funds...

:lol: Well played my friend....

Actually just picked mine up yesterday and am now in full preparation mode for the trip/game....hope my Buckeyes are as well.....and no, I'm not on the 50 and did not pay $2500.....

 

My son in Orlando who is a member of the Florida Citrus Sports organization got a press box seat for the game..."scouting", I think they call it. :roll:

Then my son who lives in Dayton asked me about getting a couple more tix since Jeremy's coming up for the game and I said "No way"...too hard to get/expensive.

Then I get an email from the Athletic Office that some tix were returned late by the visiting schools for the first few games...and were going to be offered to ticket lottery participants before the general public.

Score! I got a couple at face value.

 

If there is a game of chance involved you can always count on a Ryckman to come out with the tickets, or whatever. :roll:

 

:shock:

Well done....!

Normal office hours SE corner of the VC under the awning two giant steps and a reach from the beer truck..... 8)

 

Might try to catch you...missed you a couple of yrs. ago with Gerry.

Wear someething Scarlet and Gray so I can find you in the crowd. :lol:

 

I'll be there....not quite sure what the game day uni will be, but I will be wearing something scarlet and gray :shock:

.....kick-off at 3:40, so I assume I'll be there from noonish/after lunch until about 2:45.....email me your number and we can try and do a better job coordinating this time - you won't have TOK in tow this time so we should not have the same problem! :wink:
