No Shyt they're making coin,that's fine until the wheels start falling off Cinderalla's Midnight Carraige - that's stoopid. And it appears to be what may happen
more - more - more - more, that Suits think fans can keep fostering. Both 847 & 94 dropped their season duckets,Badge sited climbing prices - before he moved. Good friend on mine has a Brother who recently retired as an Ear,Nose & Throat Specialist from private pratice. He graduated from tOSU's Medical School and dropped his season Tics for the same reason.And he has a P.h.D.....before moving to FLA.,Hmm seems to be a trend there rich folks landing there. Anyhow read the tea leaves 847 is right it's not sustainable
Frankly, the biggest reason I still have tickets is that it's not hard to get down to campus from where I'm at.
After the 2014 season, which featured the first wins over Nebraska and Michigan in a long time as well as a 51-14 flogging of Iowa, AD Norwood Teague decided that it was time to re-seat and significantly up the price in 3 stages, starting with fall 2015. It wrecked the season ticket base. Teague would be fired later that summer for sexually harassing two high-ranking University employees, so it goes without saying that his judgement was questionable at best. A poster at the Gopher Hole has compiled the number of season tickets sold when it gets released through FOIA filings. Since 2013, here it is:
Season tix sold |
2013 | 33284 |
2014 | 33385 |
2015 | 27885 |
2016 | 22706 |
2017 | 22990 |
2018 | 21682 |
2019 | 21689 |
2021 | 23636 |
2022 | 23443 |
2023 | 25317 or 25396 |
2024 | 23592 |
2025 | 23089 |
The 3rd stage of the price hike was supposed to happen before the 2017 season, but was halted after the whole Clayes fiasco that eventually led to the hiring of PJ Fleck.
