Re: Season ticket record broken!
Talking purely from my own professional financial management experience, which is not in college athletics, investors usually like to see at least 3 years of solid growth like this. So, I would tend to think we won't hear/see anything about a major SEZ project until 2014. Pending ticket sales still climb each year, of course.

Re: Season ticket record broken!
Man this is awesome. The only thing that could drag us down compared to last year is lack of visitor attendance with Tulsa and Western Illinois compared to UNI and Iowa.

I think that is a good timetable, although if we get 6 wins this year, I think another uptick is basically guaranteed with Iowa and UNI as the nonconference home games next year.

Re: Season ticket record broken!
I've been constant in saying I think the SEZ happens after this season. I'm sticking to it.

We've had more tickets sold than actual seats for years and years now. The demand is already proven. Hell, with the student section sold out, that's another area of demand un-met (we could expand the student section if we bowled in both decks).
The case for doing it is as good as ever. Just need a lead donor.

Re: Season ticket record broken!
A point of note... last year's season ticket record was announced on september 21: Iowa State Shatters Season Ticket Record - Iowa State University Athletics Official Web Site - www.CYCLONES.com - The home of Iowa State Cyclone Sports
The question being... how many season tickets will we end up hitting if we keep selling through the same time?

Re: Season ticket record broken!
I hope they can piece it back together so we can play it again! -

Keep that applause going!

Piling people on grass hillsides for Texas, Iowa, UNI and OU isn't a long term realistic option for a Big 12 school. We could sell a lot more lower priced season tickets if we had the permenant seats. Rates are so low right now, would be crazy not to do it if there is any possible way to get it done.
Wouldn't be surprised to see it announced in the next year. Pollard will get it done.
