Way to also reward those that help the Bulls "travel well". And as we can see that is a huge issue with Bowl Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some schools charge upwards in the $80's for visiting teams (ie. FSU @ Oklahoma tix were $82 + service fee last season). I wouldn't expect to pay much more on stubhub closer to the game though, ND fans aren't going to be clammoring for tix against USF.2. You'll be surprised at the ticket requests for this game. Granted, it's not a 2hour drive up the interstate, but it's a rare occurance for many Bulls fans to have an actual reason to go to Notre Dame.

Guest Sunburned Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 1. $73 for a ticket is a steal. Some schools charge upwards in the $80's for visiting teams (ie.

I wouldn't expect to pay much more on stubhub closer to the game though, ND fans aren't going to be clammoring for tix against USF. $70 is the standard price for ND football tickets, ND fans pay the same as visitors. Most ND fans have to get their tickets through a lottery so for many the USF game will one of the few choices they have...take or leave it. My group (family) has 8 tickets secured and most likely will have 12 by May. It's nice great having ND grads in the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that my account in the Bulls club link has no records of any yearly donations or season tickets. While the one under manage tickets has record of my donation level.You can access your account through www.mybullsclub.com. If you need your login information email bullsclub@usf.edu.EricJust a heads up ... mybullsclub.com will accept your ID and password from the Manage My Account section at gousfbulls.com. It brings you to what looks like a Bulls Club site but no informations is filled in ... Befuddled the **** out of me for days until I realized the mistake.I assume that is what is happening to me as I don't see any priority points for my football and baseball season tickets. What did you do to correct? Did you have to set up another account and add the season ticket account info manually? same with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBull Posted April 5, 2011 Group: TBP Subscriber III Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 3,448 Reputation: 1,422 Days Won: 19 Joined: 09/09/2007 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Interesting thread on the cost/benefit analysis of attending this game and being a donor in general.Personally, this is a game and trip that could not be missed, no matter the cost. A chance to go through Chitown and take the party train down to South Bend to see the Bulls bash the alterboys is too sweet a deal. I traded in a truckload of credit card points for air travel and hotel in Chicago so that cushioned the blow. And I got my four tickets today and it was as good a brithday gift as any.As for me, the rewards of donation and active support of the Bulls and Bulls Club more than outweigh the costs. I'm an Iron Bull donor, Board member, active volunteer for events, season ticket holder in three sports (football since the beginning) and travel to many road and bowl games. Besides getting good tickets to great sporting events, I've had wonderful trips and I get to share a lifetime worth of memories with a bunch of great people who share my passion for the University and the games as well. My theory is to give until it hurts so good.Go Bulls! Can't wait for the South Bend Stampede! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
