Got an email yesterday saying I didn't get a seat upgrade. Slightly disappointed because I even jumped up to the $2500 donation level.

205 row 8, was hopeful to move to center court or even just a lower row.

I'm surprised. Will be interesting to know how others fared.

So, if things are this tight now, is it safe to say we're going to be "sold out" again this season?

Just got off the phone with a rep. He said 95% of seats renewed, donations went from $3.5mil in 2014 to $5 mil this year, that all of the seat upgrades were pretty much at the $5000 donation level.

Bummer, but I am glad to see continued support for the program.

It's great for the program. I was told that same renewal % but nearly 100% on the floor, red seats and loge. My guess is that the 5% who didn't renew were largely first time buyers last season who balked at the adjusted giving levels.
