Well said. Just not particularly well spelled.

BTW: It's not about how much we think A&T football is worth. It is how much should we be charging right now for general admission.
I remember Avatar creator James Cameron did an interview once and he said that even though his movie made $1 Billion his target audience was anybody who had $15 dollars.

Sorry Thrilla, I often read this info while at work just to break it up a bit. Just breaking from a three hour interview with an accused murder suspect and checking in with reality. I'll review before posting from here out.

Elon fans are a poor example of pricing. They hate football, LOL. Wait, are tickets $12 when we play them?

I'm just teasing you, daddytiger. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out how to pronounce that word. LOL

I think $25 is just right to me. That's a sure fire way to raise revenue for the department and we need the cash. Children and student tickets should be in the $5-$10 range, however. Now we may need to invest in the improvement of the gameday experience but to reduce pricing for gen. Adm. would be counter productive for us. What can you buy for 25.00? You could buy a Justin Bieber T-shirt for 25.00 and you can buy an Edward Cullen t-shirt for 25.00 You could buy a sticker book and some stickers, lunch, 2 CD's makeup, a game etc. The AGGIE EXPERIENCE is worth more than that. It's a poor frog that won's support it's own lillypad. OFF TOPIC.... But LOL this saying took me back....My pops use to use it ALL the time......

$15 into game Homecoming $20.
Tailgate $7.00 only!!!!!
I bet we would make a lot more money with these prices.
Does anyone has any status on weather we have made more money in 2011-12 vs 2010-11 with the tailgate initiative.

You can make more money and get more people involved. Going back to prices with this economy and given my profession I can't afford to take my entire family to the game. I would pay and my family would like to go to just the tailgate.

Charging a family of four $70 - $90 just to watch a A&T football game is not what I call community outreach.

I usually sneak my family in the night before and just tell them to hang out under the bleachers until the game starts.

I gave my fam a choice of Aggie Football or McDonald's after church on Sunday. My wifey said she was all in for football so she can keep a close eye on me watching GD. My kids took the alternative route and chose going to McDonald's instead.
It's getting crucial cause I know a fam that watches Aggie Football together stays together.
Hilton, can you hear me?
