All fair points. We all need to do what we need to do. We all have priorities No hard feelings. Cheers and happy holidays!!
Based on the fact that Kill was outcoached again today, another bowl loss, another 8-5 season, blah blah blah I'm rolling the dice. Thx to Norwood Teague's increase I drew the line with today's game as a must win for me to continue tix. Well they lost and I'm opting out. No interest in moving to a cheaper area. I'll buy my way back in a few years later if they ever become elite (LOL!). I'll scalp a couple of games and spread my disposable income around to other sports teams.

Other professional teams? Might I recommend the Timberwolves, Twins, or Vikings? Or will women's hockey or the Lynx do it for you?

Will be interesting over the upcoming months. Will renewals be down, and if so, will they be replaced with new season ticket holders? I don't think today went the way the ticket office wanted.
I think overall attendance will be up with that schedule but season tickets will be down(so more tickets sold but without the donations added on). The casual fan has not bought into the program yet and some loyal ST holders will bail for sure. The one positive is the upper corners in the upper deck will now be all filled and the single game tickets will be chairbacks between the 20's.
One other point-- only one more season of the extra seats for the Vikings-- I wonder if there is talk about keeping them around for future years
Not sure why we would keep them when we can't sell out most games? If we do keep them, would it make any sense to move the upper deck student seats to this location and gradually transition them to the east end zone by expanding into sections 118 and 132 as attrition occurs from regular season ticket holders who move elsewhere or drop their tickets? The students might feed off each other more so if they are directly across from one another as opposed to being split by the lower and upper decks. Just a random thought.

I agree we don't sell out but these added seats were a significant factor in the attendance going up this year, Also I believe the 2-pack game tickets were down here and these are much more attractive than sitting in the upper deck corners. If they do keep them wish they would change the seat colors as well as make each of the sections uniform-- there is one section that has more rows than the others
