Before $390 for 8 games, while now $380 for 7 games.
Greed pure and simple after one of the worse four years in
Vol history.

many won't and that's his point

never mind the more than double that "donation" required

time for the 0.1% to pick up the slack

So they will adjust them as needed. If the price is too high then sales will be affected, if it isn't, they won't.

I think if someone paid 380 last year then they will most likely be willing to pay 390 even if it is for one less game.

There are always those who will continue to pay no matter the price. I gave up season tickets and required donation and literally take a cruise w/ the wife using same $$.Pick your poison..I now go to 2 games ayear.. Today's deli: turkey and swiss w/ mayo -dark bread

Greed? It's a profit driven business. If you think the prices are unfair let UT know, to wit, exercise your right to decline the purchase. Welcome to capitalism and a free economy. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Agree not the time to raise prices. Also, they include the worthless Troy and Akron games so its like only 5 games.

I don't think the prices are terrible until you tack on a donation. That puts it on up there for good seats. I choose to spend my extra money for an rv and a place on the lake instead. I get 3 months of that for what a season of football cost. I just can't get the every weekend off in the fall either. If you can't/won't pay then don't. Someone will.

On another note, some promotion should happen to sell out games when they are low on people.

The reality is people can cry and complain all the want about how the schedule sucks, or the economy blows, or this or that, but if this was a 10 win or better team, no one would say a word.

Don't see how they are doing this. They were offering season ticket holders last year two more seats, donation free. Also the 3 game packages, and there were still some left over at the ticket office.

I know I'm not renewing this year, not worth it to me. And yes, losing has a lot to do with it.

Then it would be ok if your shirts wrinkled.... Could hire all the eastern and southern europeans as the eye could see, and make them work 13 hours and make you a new one from scratch.

Exactly time to win the product that's been put on the field does not warrant a raise in ticket prices.

There's nothing better than spending a Saturday in Neyland. I'll make a sacrifice or two to keep my tickets
