uh, they did this with season tickets. half the cost is a tax-deductible contribution to a 401(c)(3)

no, he wants EVERYTHING to be tax deductible.
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally

Yeah I understand, it wouldnt work.

Not a huge demand driver, but what would be awesome if they did the same promotion as Harkins theatres did. Sell a 20 dollar SMU shirt (one that everyone thinks is legit to where on TV) and it gives you like some type of discount off meals, and have souvenir cup and you can get refills for a buck. Again no demand driver, but its a nice deal to give people a reason to come back or a reminder that they can go get this discount when they watch their local football team. I dont know, Im no marketing major.

Someone at work today bought a couple of those tickets.

I can't go to an 11 AM game. Wish it were scheduled for 2 PM so I could go.
