Spring game is no longer free and has premium seating

[VolPack22]

I may have missed it somewhere, but I'm going to assume that I'll need to buy a ticket for my 3-year old as well.

I would assume so since it isn’t specifically mentioned. I would call the ticket office to make certain.

But to be honest, the rhyme in your little ditty doesn’t rhyme on the monetary unit (quarter) but on the word „hearted“

Pre inflation, the rhyme was "paid my dime..." which made the rhythm work. Dang inflation even ruins the arts. Which rhymes with...

By today’s prices, it’s a bargain for entertainment lol

Seriously, can you get a soft drink at Neyland for that?

We ask you to pay these prices, and please, PAY NO MORE!

EXACTLY THIS - we were good in the 90s...less than good in the 00s...less than that in the 10s.

Now I don't believe we're "back" to the 90s yet, but headed in the right direction and if charging me $5 for a great day in the spring to keep my attention on the program and engaged, I'm happy to pay that !!!

I like the spring game, been a while since I've been though

You are correct, they confirmed that I would need a ticket for my child.

Glad you were able to confirm that. I’m sure you won’t be the only one with that question.

This was always something to take the young kids in the family to as an introduction to the atmosphere. Sounds like it is moving on from that.

 

[volfan102455]

I would think a 3 year old would be able to attend this game for free. If it was a regular game where all seats are taken, I understand charging for a seat. But not at this.

I would gladly pay a small fee to use a public toilet if I knew it was clean.

A thousand times this. For clean public restrooms, my budget would be unlimited. NO LIMIT!

Shame that they did not schedule this on and afternoon when either the Men's baseball or Women's softball was in town. I would have liked to enjoyed spring game and one or the other round ball games.

The wife and I are gonna bring up our 4 kids to the game. Should be a good environment for them and not be crazy expensive

SIGH!!!! Pretty soon, someone will start charging you for breathing, or mowing your own lawn. Don't laugh, there are some places right now that charge you for using a public restroom. Not sure if the guys who sit on a stool in a corner and insist you pay to not only use the restroom, but also to wash your hands.

So your comparing a Tennessee football game to taking a s*** in McDonalds?

If you want to pretzel twist it that way, your call. If you want to Senegalese hair twist it that way, your call. If you want to yoga seated twist it that way, your call. If you want to Chubby Checker twist it that way, your call. {Ya oughta kno bettah than to play wid uh twissed mine]

well of course its an agenda and entertainment ... it aint ballin anymore.....its a bizness now

 

[Ten_Titans]

Lame. Don't care about $5 but I'm not standing in line outside the stadium to watch a practice.

Feels like a slap in the face anyway considering they have been on their hands and knees begging fans to go to the Spring game for 20 years. One good season and we are doing tickets again lol.

People have been paying to use public restrooms all over Europe since the Roman Empire started it abt. 2500 years ago. We've traveled all over the continent and always had to pay. Yes, there is a man who takes the money inside the restroom. You have to have exact change, by the way. Talk about a tax that keeps going on and on and on!

I remember once I went into a restroom at 'Five Guys' & there was a sign that read, "Employees Must Wash Hands"...no one came in there so after a few minutes, I just washed them myself!

That's funny!!!! More funny than my experiences, yes, that's plural. Seeing employees there not washing their hands even after exiting the stall, having done their number 2. That's why I haven't visited a burger or chicken joint since. I insist on cooking my own, as I'm a compulsive hand washer, as is my wife. Besides, my burgers and chicken tastes better.

Anyone know if you will be able to pay at the gate for spring game?
