TAMPA, JAN. 11, 2017 – In an effort to demonstrate its deep appreciation for supporting Bulls football, USF Athletics randomly selected four season ticket members, who had perfect attendance over the past two seasons, and gave them the surprise of a lifetime.

As a reward for years of dedication, USF provided tickets to Monday’s national championship game to the lucky Bulls fans, who each got to bring a guest to watch No. 1 Alabama take on No. 2 Clemson at Raymond James Stadium.

That's really cool. I would have flipped the tickets and made out like a bandit though.

Now that is smart marketing.  Way to go USF.   I would recommend that be used for other things as well.

Although that would have been bad form, I would probably do the same.

Winning tickets would have been the only way I would have gone to that game. Wife would go bananas if I spent that type of cash for tickets.

I would have been in full BULLS gear and held a sign "BULL STRONG!!!". When someone asked me who I was cheering for, I'd say the camera and GET MY NATION WIDE BULLS LOVE ON!!!!! :GoBulls:

I bet they had to agree not to sell the tickets.

Would have kinda seemed a little ungrateful not to go IMO. I get the $$ angle but it would be like after winning a fan's choice award, step up to the podium and say, "I'll start the bidding at $1200, do I hear 15? 15?"
