hightechbull Posted June 12, 2019 Group: Member Topic Count: 232 Content Count: 2,511 Reputation: 278 Days Won: 0 Joined: 01/01/2001 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I got a message from the USF athletics department that my section in RJS no longer includes club access. They said I could upgrade to a different section, but the price differential was not worth it. I renewed my season tickets online, and I am positive that my section indicated club access. I had club access the past few seasons. Has anyone else experienced this? I think this is kind of dumb idea from the athletics department, considering that they do not have the season ticket holder base that USF used to have when they were in the Big East. You would think they would do whatever they could do to expand the season ticket holder base and not agitate the existing season ticket holders.

At this point, we should be trying to do anything possible to get 40K people into the stadium. Edited June 12, 2019 by JTrue 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure John will weigh in but I would be absolutely stunned if they allowed you to renew in a section that had Club access and then remove the access at this point. Here's the season tix map. What section did you renew in that no longer has Club access? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club Access should absolutely be a benefit of certain sections IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certain sections and certain Bulls Club levels and only USF-gear-wearing fans! Actually, I would be fine with opening the club to any section as long as the ticket holder is at a certain donor level, which is how it used to be. Not sure if that's still the case.

We have friends who have seats in 214 and have always had Club Access. Don't know if that is because of Donor Level or if that section had been included in the past. But it doesn't appear to be included now. Will have to have him check into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked if USF was still making that exception in an earlier post but now reading the fine print in Trip's posted image, I see the following quote (and it's been there for years): "If seated in a non-club area, Green Bull donors ($1,000 +) will receive club access" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
