After having six season tickets for football for many many years, I have added four basketball tickets. We ended up at all but one home game last year, and the bang for your buck for entertainment at Moody is sky-high. It's an absolutely electric palace. Cannot wait for LB and the boys in November.

How many priority points did you have? Curious for my friends who were / are on the list without already having season tickets.

Better question is how many $$$ he shelled out. People are dropping large donations to move up the list

I am still trying to pick up another 2 seats. Have four now and they wanted an additional $2,500 in donation.

I actually secured my basketball season tickets today. I am very low on MC points and I am absolutely blown away that I was able to purchase season tickets. I imagine the Mudiay ordeal helped free up demand a bit. I got cheap seats ($180 per ticket), but honestly I just feel lucky enough to have been able to get those. I remember about 3 months ago a ticket office employee told me it would probably take around a $2500 donation just to have a shot at tickets...

I got a pair of tickets as well. I won't be there very much so one consideration was help in distributing the tickets. The athletic department assured me they could use my 'donated' tickets which satisfies me.

They are not primo tickets but at least I was able to get them.

Im trying to get some (senior this year) but figured I should get on the season ticket holder list so its easier to get some when I graduate next year. And I have family in the area who would love to go to games. How did you get yours? I've requested information a couple times and haven't heard anything?

Call the ticket office. Good idea to plan ahead like that.

I don't know the exact process to tell you what to do, but I'll tell you how I did it. I have had a ticket office account for about 5 years, purchasing football away games and bowl games. This is my first year to buy season tickets. I am young alum (2012) and do not have a lot of discretionary cash. I donated a $100.00 to MC. Bought a pair of football season tickets and I guess that was good enough to make my way up the list to purchase basketball season tickets. Although, they are the $180.00 seats, I am glad to have gotten in. Naturally, I would think this will be the easiest season to secure tickets for the next few seasons. Next year, if everyone renews, the list will be harder to move up to get a limited amount of open seats. I don't know that for sure, but it seems logical.

Yeah I'm going to call Monday see what they say. If I have to buy a pair of football tickets that will be a bummer because I just walk in free anyways but Ill pony up if I have to. I wonder if current students can get young alumn prices? I'm pretty worried Im going to graduate and next season its going to be impossible to get bball tickets for brand new graduates.
