| 80 dollar single game tickets Florida/Bama Just heard on Sports Animal that the tickets for the the Florida and Bama games will be 80 dollars a piece. He said that it is the highest single game ticket price ever for a UT game.
Not really complaining because i will be getting a student ticket, but just wondering why this would be the case after such a dismal season? |

| | You huge girl!! | Just more proof that our Athletic Department is out of touch with the reality of our program and the economy. I'm not paying $80 for a single game ticket to either of those games. That's honestly ridiculous.

| I may be in the minority here, but these days, I'd rather sit at home in front of my 47 inch flat watching my vols in high def, be able to check other games during commercials, eat for free, don't pay for parking, don't sit in traffic, be able to rewind plays, pause the game to do some bidness, etc.......but that's just me.

With all the technology for TV broadcasts, internet, and being able to watch multiple games, I'm sure that even the people who could afford it and it not hurt their pocketbooks, are thinking the exact same things.
