Not everyone is going to be able to pay the increase and continue to eat eggs.  Choices are going to have to be made!

Eggs are bad for your cholesterol anyways.

Yeah, $80 per ticket increase.  But of course this is an $80 increase over last year which was increased over 2023 to account for the 7th game.  I think they snuck these on us a couple of times the last 10 years while saying they haven't increased prices.  Oh well, it's a blended $80 and I'm going to pay it either way.

To be fair….my recollection is that ‘24 total price was the same as ‘23, despite 7 games vs 6

i believe that is correct.  the 7th game was "free" last year.  80.00 bump minus one game is the double whammy.

back in the day when there was an actual price on the ticket, season ticket cost was basically one game lower than if you bought all game tickets separately.

the ticket price is going to keep going up, 1) offsets the grandfathered LHF seat donation and 2) going to push against the secondary market some IMO.

Maybe we should start sucking again to ebb the demand.

On another note, how does the ticket website work for season tickets? I saw a group of them in the upper deck on the home side that I liked, but it said they're $600 for the season plus a $500-600 donation. So idk how this silly thing works. Do I pay only 600 or am I having to pay 1100-1200? Does the donation money get you tickets for the OU game as well?

Well thank goodness! Del Conte also mentioned that the athletic department took “4,000 tickets away from brokers and gave them back to you all” for football.

But you still have plenty of new donors that will pay a higher donation fee so why take it out of every fan that's dealt with the ups and downs. Maybe it's the only game in town and the population is big enough but I would feel at some point foundation members might need to feel like there is some benefit.

Lol the Texas AD does not give two shits about fans that have dealt with the ups and downs. Incredibly greedy organization over the years.
