Being in NE I obviously do not have season tickets or priority points. That being said, I have been to every BE team's stadium in the north and have never had trouble getting tickets through USF. I know this is due to the fact that not many Floridians are going to make the trip up but lets face it we are not Michigan or Florida in terms of fan base.

 

But when we played at UF, FSU and the upcoming UCF it was and could be an issue.

The priority points formula is pretty simple:

 

Donate a reasonable sum of money and you'll probably get seats in the USF block 

 

Donate a lot more money and you'll get better seats in the USF block

 

Donate a sh_tload of money and Judy will fly you to the game on a private jet and you can sit on Doug's lap in the AD's suite.

 

I believe that there are over 25K people with some number of priority points.  It all depends on how many of those ahead of you want to go to that UCF game.  I don't think we'll be going.  Just keep waiting for that tinker toy stadium to collapse. 

 

As for "better" seats, that is a mixed blessing.  Last 2 times going to L'ville we were in the 1st two rows.  Whomever assigns them assumes closer to the field is better.  There was usually room in our section to move up.

 

I don't have a lot of people ahead of me in priority points but I agree those behind me may have my UCF seats.   I can't think of a much less appealing way to spend Thanksgiving weekend than a visit to the Big Tramp.  If we aren't playing for a title, I will most likely head for the mountains instead.

 

As for the curse of "better" seats, Rick by now I figured you'd be donating enough to live the "suite life." :thumbsup:

Many moons before we play UF and FSU again.

Not in my lifetime.  Gov Christie made sure of that when he froze NJ pensions.

I'd like to stick him on a spit and slow roast for 14 hours.  I won't go into my real opinion of that guy (and politicians in general in NJ). This being a family board and all.
