SaintLouBlue Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I just got the email to renew my season tix and went in to see the price. I'm in the cheap seats in 208. My tickets are coming up as $99 per ticket which is significantly less than last year which I think was closer to $180. I'm not a young alumni or anything like that. Anyone else seeing a lower ticket price? I'm all for it, just wondering as I wasn't expecting to see a price that much lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The email does say prices are unchanged but there is a price reduction of the upper level behind the baselines. That is a pretty good price reduction though. Impressive.

SaintLouBlue Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 Pays to read the email I guess :). Just excited to pull the trigger again. Looks like they created a General Reserved D section that is now $99. Looking at my invoice from last year that's almost half the price I paid. Not complaining. Looks like the 8 sections in the corners are seeing a discount as well. Interesting tactic with the excitement around the program. Hopefully they pull in a significant amount of new season ticket holders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseman Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I just saw the email - is this going to be the only thing they send out? Would not follow the same process as before - send out renewal notices and Biliken Club rankings in the mail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past, they've mailed invoices along with sending e-mails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juniorbill76 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Those of us who got the $99 season tickets on the flash sale last year apparently won't get an email. I sent a note to the office and someone called about renewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARon Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Yep the upper corners (201, 206, 212, and 217) went from $450 to $274 a piece. Made my Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffinMH Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I renewed mine. It went down to $99 a ticket which was a significant price break. I hope it doesn't mean less home games??!?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I sure hope not. The plan said "season tickets". Maybe it was for past season ticket holders only and new guys have to pay more.

If you do choose to attend Crews plan games, there is no advanced plan to get you into the arena. Therefore, rather than going in an entrance near your seats to try for an easy walk, you have to go all the way to the opposite end of the arena to get in. Also, the head usher (some other guy named Jim) is completely incompetent and cannot relate to today's youth. Therefore, if you have any kids with you, they'll choose to go elsewhere. When you to get concessions, you cannot stand in line behind another person ordering. You go stand at another cash register waiting for it to open. Finally, if you're going to the game as a group of bachelors hoping to catch the eye of some ladies, you're required to bring at least 13 other dudes with you who all possess the same relatively low level of desirableness as yourself. Therefore, no one will really stand out and you won't be able to come up with a cohesive game plan for which dudes should engage with groups of ladies.
