Ticket bill caused slight loss for USF on bowl trip

[Guest nybullsfan]

It's been quite a while since I was in SG, but I'm pretty sure the athletics fee covers only intramural, not intercollegiate.

Intercollegiate is supported by ticket sales, advertising, and donations, IIRC.

Who pays for student tickets to USF intercollegiate athletic events?

It's an opportunity cost, not a real cost. The venue (Sundome, RJS, SPT Forum) is "rented" in its entirety, not seat-by-sart

The only real costs are the printing of paper tickets, a small delta of staffing to cover the differential amount of students over non-students, etc. I assume these are covered by the general Athletics budget.

Then why are only students who pay athletic fees allowed to get "free" tickets?

Good question. Maybe to encourage them to pay their fees.

Unless things have changed, the fee's not optional, so if it's not paid you're not "in good standing" anyway...
