As in they came in the mail, or you purchased them. Getting my hands on the tickets is one of my favorite days.... I have a problem.

Simple. Follow the Sun. Sunshine always reaches Arkyland before Dallas.

I actually received them in the mail. I was surprised because I usually get mine bout a week after everyone else. I think they went alphabetical by state.

Maybe they send out tickets by graduation date-you'd be at the top of the list

I wanted to add 2 additional tickets to my order of 4 and they said that will be an additional $500 donation. Now the donation is bigger than the price of the tickets. While I understand the need for Mustang Club donations, I think they need to rethink this one. A lot of families in the Park Cities have 3-4 kids and if this is ever going to turn into a family event they need to make it a little more cost friendly. Maybe $500 for the first 4 tickets then $100 per ticket up to 6-8 tickets.

Maybe we could start accepting that to be a big time program we need to stop worrying about a "family friendly" environment and start trying to get the real fans into the stadium that will show up, be loud, and stay for the whole game instead of treating it like a country club event.

I want to stick with the alphabetical by state theory.

Mine arrived today! So did my Baylor tickets.
Thank goodness the first SMU sporting event of the year is tonight or I might just sit at home all day and stare at my tickets.

Maybe we can remain happy that the stadium is 2/3 full.

We need to focus on getting as close to 32,000 drunk 18-35 year olds as possible. We need major atmosphere change

Why is it that being drunk is a requirement?

Overrated. I rarely drink any alcohol before a game. Now afterwards I usually close the Bar down

That would still be an improvement. It would be interesting to see what would happen to our ticket base if SMU charged UT type prices which for decent seats, are between $75-$85 per ticket per game.
