Priority points are almost meaningless They only matter within your donor level. Moving up in donor level is what will make a significant difference. As of now there are only about 150 donors at the 7500+ level or above. Pretty much everybody can only buy 4 seats so you looking at a worst case of 600 seats gone before you pick. My guess that would safely get you a really good moody seat.
If you decide to move donor level, make sure it’s going to be sustainable as if you don’t keep the increased level, you drop back to whatever level your donation is at that time. Evidently they had this problem a couple of years ago of people making a bigger donation and then after they got their seats, stopped giving as much.

Well first off you're not going to fit in a red seat. Second, can you imagine dropping a $20,000 donation and ending up in my seats .
Are you offering him to sit in your lap for $20k?

I think most people are more concerned with the $1K-$2K type donations where you could potentially double your donation and end up with worse seats pretty easily depending on the demand.

The info session was a joke. I feel bad for the 20+ white hairs in the room that have had tickets since the 70’s and get no credit for anything before 2001

The couple $2500K/seat donors I've spoken with just plan to give the same amount and see where the chips fall. With the team on a bit of a slump, don't you think those type donors will be in good shape? Is there a lot of latent demand waiting to jump $1K donors when given the chance?

The Moody re-seat meetings on 2/15, 3/7, and 3/21 could all be real interesting!

Cheap tickets will be plenty. I'm afraid it's headed in the same direction as well never mind.

Media getting re-seated too? Perhaps they should ask the DMN to up their donation to get a seat at the table.
