Yes, Thad just put in the number to the ticket office so it can be used all season (and even next year). When it is public we should all post it with the UCF game time and date. Make sure people know we have a big game this weekend.

Brad will be posting to all the SMU related sites and facbook pages, so lets push those as well.

If you're buying 1-4, you don't get the bulk discount. Pretty simple.

Thanks 2nd, I get "the bulk" pricing. I just don't get how we expect the casual fan to spend $35 per ticket (at least not yet). Sorry, love the Mustangs, but damn...

I got the "bulk" rate for FAR less than 25 tickets

I'm right there with you, especially given this economy. I am definitely a cut above the "casual fan", and I can't swing it to take the family to the game. I finally landed a job after almost two months, so I gotta watch every penny until the paychecks start coming in again. I'm sure that is more than anyone ever wanted/needed to know about me, but I know my situation is not unique, and those kinds of prices for a brand trying to establish itself again seem a little steep. Add $10-20 for parking, and while it is still a value compared to the Cowboys, it is still hard for some of us. That said, I will be glued to the TV and screaming so loud that y'all may hear me down at Ford anyway!

Shouldn't have to pay for parking .....plenty of space in UP

For $40 they can buy the rest of the season - why not just do that?
1 sideline ticket with fees is the same price.

TM end zone is $25 (non-group)

No reason to pay for parking and there are some free tickets avail - just saw offer for two.

And just to point out, once this initiative ends with the UCF game, if you are interested in donating to another game this season, the school will accept donated tickets for any football or basketball game and will place the donated tickets at any time. Dutch and I actually purchased and donated tickets during the basketball tournament last season.

Sir Pony94:

Per our conversation I wanted to follow up and let you know that you can donate to our Community Ticket Program

http://smumustangs.cstv.com/tickets/com ... ogram.html

The tickets for MBB are $90.00 ea. and serves as a season ticket in which we can bring 1 kid to all 15 home games for 2011/12 or bring 15 kids to one game. Nonetheless, you will be purchasing a season ticket and it does garner Priority Points, too.

Thanks for your considerations 94!
