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

(One important note, science has proven that people who sit on that side are lesser fans than those who sit on the home side... ) Now you did it Slab. I'll stay out of that one.

I'm interested in buying season tickets for the first time this season but I'm a little surprised on how little availability exists in lower level, especially on the sunny side. Just a few in the corners.

People are anticipating the gophers switching sidelines.

Easier access to the hot tubs on the roof!

With all these new season ticket holders we can only hope they install a new drunks standing section only... You know to appease the masses

God help us if the U does anything to accommodate skunk fans.

Have to keep them away from the heating coils.

Easy to do since the coils were removed.

Coyles.

Coyles.

It’s amazing after all this time, people still can’t spell Coyles right

I don't think the full inventory is considered "available" at this point as they have ongoing renewals and the upgrade process still has to play out. I'd check with the ticket office to verify, but I think that you'd be selecting seats now and would then have the opportunity to go through the upgrade process later in the spring after the returning seat holders have their chances to upgrade.

This is funny? Yes, for 13 year old males, I guess.

Yes. Yes it is.

Exactly.

That's what they want you to think.

Time to expand.

I want not referring to skunk fans...

 

[LakerFan]

Time to expand.

Time to tear TCF down and rebuild 120K capacity in the shape of a rowboat with escalators on the oars for entry to the stadium.

Thought I would post this...T'wolves with some tangible, nice ST benefits...this jumped out at me...I would definitely take advantage of this kind of benefit

"Season tickets for the Timberwolves went on sale Wednesday. The same day, the team announced fans who renew or start a season ticket membership will receive 50 percent of food and drinks at Target Center and at the Timberwolves Team Store on the skyway level—but only if they use the Wolves Wallet within the Timberwolves App to make their purchases."

Timberwolves trying to 'reignite fan base' with new benefits for season ticket holders

The Minnesota Timberwolves are trying to entice more fans to buy season tickets by offering new benefits for season ticket holders, such as discounts on food and beverages as well as flat pricing across seasons.

Viking ship .... because the VIkings were dumb enough not to do it themselves.

Who else would occupy a drunks only standing room section?

 

[Veritas]

The Badgers have nothing in the drunk camp on our younger guys. I guess with success you get more drunks. Too bad.

Actually sounds fun to me. I'm interested in how they would verify if someone was drunk enough to be in there? Count me in.

Let us mention, that drinks in this case include booze. Just for Veritas' sake. So he knows.

Coyles.

My bad. I'll get it right next time. Have to admit we can't have the Coyles near the hot tubs.

Why would I care what an NBA team does?

 

[disco]

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.

So you wouldn't want the season ticket-holder perqs of 50% off your food, beverage, and Goldy's Locker room purchases when you attend Gophs games?

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.

Anyone shocked by the fact that Veritas is the kind of person who probably sneaks saltines into the game to gnaw on?
