Sid: Coyle said demand for Gophers football season tickets has grown by 300% from last year








I don't know if you're an NBA fan or not. But I thought you should know that there might be half price booze somewhere, so you can avoid it.

I'm not. Have not watched a game on TV since the 60s. But thanks for the warning.
 


Relevancy? "50% off" of prices four times normal is one of the oldest marketing tricks in the book. And, in any case, the season ticket "donation" for "schoolarships" already shows us what the U thinks of when pricing things. We eat and shop before or after games, as little as is possible at the games. Yes we are cheap.
And yet it is still half the price it is normally sold at. I'm cheap too - I don't buy much at the games, but the times I do I can say I would prefer to pay half price than full-price, even if half-price isn't a great deal. I believe that is the point being made.
 





Imagine being the usher/security person for the "drunks only" section. Standing there with a breathalyzer, checking everyone.

"I'm sorry sir, your BAC is only .13. You're not drunk enough to sit in this section. Go have a few more drinks and try later."

Back in the day before the NHL made an effort to change a bit .... that was kinda the NHL.

The crowd could be kinda... booze heavy.

I would have loved to be old enough to experience that kind of fun.

Let me know when that happens at the U. Personally, I don't think the U cares what the NBA teams do even half as much as what the other Big Ten programs are doing.
 



Bump. What a difference a month makes. I haven't renewed yet. I always wait for the last few days. Have most people already renewed?

I think I renewed February ish.

IRRC back in the day that is when they would announce renewals.


Now it is like... December I think.
