TRIB: 20,000 Season tickets...

[Jim Johnson]

This was a late addition to the story with the injuries and the wristbands...

Tampa - Sometime this morning, the University of South Florida is expected to exceed 20,000 season tickets.

Through Tuesday, the school had sold 19,996 season tickets, the second-most in program history. USF will continue to sell season tickets through Saturday.

WOO HOO!!

i wonder what the renewal % is of season ticket holders?  Eric do you have that information?

i imagine it is pretty high. that means we will probably be at 25k to start next year.

they should sell the black bands to the fans I am sure it will raise alot of money for a good cause

My girlfriend and I are among those that bought season tickets this week. Although I'm still a grad student and can technically get tickets for free...I'd rather not have to worry about getting WVU tickets...plus I don't mind spending a little extra money to help the University as long as I can afford it.

I think I was #19,900.  ;D

During the Aurburn game i told myself if we could beat Auburn, i would cough up the cash to get the tickets. Sure enough we won and i got the season tickets. I know i will get at least one additional season ticket next year and most of my frined (all grads over the last 2 years) said they will do the same. it is just so expensive for good tickets as a new grad.

whats' sad is i don't know where my seat is yet.

I am sure someone who knows can post the specifics, but I think they do a recent grad deal.  You get a bit of a discount on the contribution for up to 3 or 4 years after graduation.

Are you part of the New Alumni group? I'm pretty sure they have special deals for recent grads.

The New Alumni group ticket donation fee is $25 for the first year after graduation, $50 the second year, then $75, and $100 the fourth.  I am not sure what the sections are or the ticket prices are though.  The main thing is getting a cut on the donation fee just out of graduation.  Go here for more info: http://bullsclub.usf.edu/bullsclub/New_Alumni.asp

That is great news.  I hope season ticket sales climb well over 20,000, and everyone renews next year.

I also want to know if anyone other than the team can get the wrist bands?  If so, I want to buy some.  Also, I hope a portion of the sales price will go to Moffitt or related cause.  Someone please advise on these.  Thanks.

GO BULLS !!!    FININSH STRONG !!!
