Jon is stirring the pot. He frequents this board and knows others have been wondering the same.
Fact is that Jamie has something up his sleeve. I have a feeling we will all know MUCH more in the next 3-4 weeks.

My goodness, that has to be a less than enjoyable existence.

Iowa to ISU: $90 x 50,000 @ 20%= $900,000
Who the game means more to and all of that stuff aside. Both Iowa and Iowa State benefit from a cheap travel day when they play on another. For an entire football roster that adds up too. | | |

And why should you have to ask a bunch of anonymous message board posters this question?
I mean, you spend a certain amount of time dissin' message board posters, and then you ask those same posters for information?
Just seems logically inconsistent and impolite to ask folks you publicly trash on your radio show, for information.

I'm not sure that's accurate, Bryce. I know the tix were $90 for the 4k allotment - but I'm not sure if that's what ISU fans were charged within their season tickets.
In addition, the math isn't that simple, as some had the cheaper balcony and endzone seats.

In addition, the math isn't that simple, as some had the cheaper balcony and endzone seats. As well as student tickets are much cheaper. But wasn't the value on a regular season holder ticker $90? Either way Iowa got some extra return compared to a $60 ticket. Indirectly they were helping out their own school. | | |

Last year the thermometer went up within 24 hours of the renewal deadline.
Counting renewals is different from assigning seats. As you'll see from previous posts, Pollard had a running count back in March even before the deadline. There is no doubt that Pollard knows the exact count of how many season tickets have been sold. But unlike last year, he is not anxious to make the number known. I don't think we'll hear anything until August.
