    I don't believe we were the first to do that - but it is neat to see others giving ISU credit for something.

    that is true, bcuz I remember wondering why we got national attention for it. Then i realized no one else in the big 12 like a texas tech or okie state or kansas state had done it before then either. Good strategy. and it's cool to see okie st giving us credit for it. I will say if the SEC came up with that ticket strategy, smart move by Iowa State to copy the SEC when it comes to football and sales.

    Wow. And compare these with ours:

    Does anyone really want to continue the debate about whether we have some of the highest priced tickets in the conference?

    One important thing to note is all of those except for Texas Tech are per-seat donations. Cyclone Club donations get you up to 4 seats, 8 at the director's ($5000) level.

    Wake Forest did it last year, with Nebraska coming to town. The telecast said that the Husker fans bought something like 1500-2000 of those season tickets.

    Just like the Iowa game, I'm sure in previous years no one was able to get a single ticket for the OU/OSU game without having a season ticket to begin with. These big rivalry games are sold out by season ticket holders before regular single tickets go on sale. The real result is that season ticket holders can no longer buy extra tickets to the game for their friends.

    Very comparable to ours at $58.33. Interesting.


    That is NOT comparable because they have 1 more home game.

    well, he was comparing the per game price, so yes, it is comparable.

    Their per game price is watered down due to 1 extra game; so NO, it's not comparable.
