Keeping all 6.
Much like the BB tickets that you couldn't give away in years past are now the hottest ticket in DFW, I am waiting for the same in FB...and yes, I realize that might be the greatest example ever of insanity...

I have had 4 since I graduated, and will have that many or more every year until I can't make it to the stadium anymore. Saturdays in the fall will always mean SMU football.

Less, one of my partners had their positon eliminated by SMU. Personally I blame Obamacare.

Re: Are you buying more or less Fball seats? And why?
Moving to Houston. Do not plan on driving to a game when they are all on TV. Would rather watch a 3 hour game online or on tv, then turn it off and go back to my business rather that 9 hours round trip, a hotel, gas, and wasted time. Will probably pay to go to Orlando. Fiancé has never been to Disney world.
To be honest I even got bored at most SMU games last year. I can't imagine how bored my fiancé is. Would rather pay to spend a weekend at a hotel on the coast tha waste the money going to a sporting event for a team that won't win anything meaningful anyway. It was worth going to the games when I lived just across 75. I could pay $20 a game to park right at the stadium and leave my place 10 mins before kickoff.

Aside from the moving to Houston part, tough to find fault w any of that

Re: Are you buying more or less Fball seats? And why?
I make a longer trip each home game and I too cannot find any fault with it. I am just punishing myself in hopes things will improve someday. But it gets more difficult every year.

3 more. I got remarried, which means I now have 2 step-kids, and living in FW, I have to keep them away from any school here. They need to be PonyFans before they start picking a college.

You might want to see if you can score season tickets to SMU Basketball. . . Might be a more favorable impression than what's on the gridiron. . . But, what do I know

Going from 0 to 0.
I'll prolly stream fewer games, not that that means anything. Not waking up at 3am to watch us get creamed by crap competition
