topekahusker Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I can double check since my individual game tix are often obtained through the Alumni Assn. but I think the pre-conference individual tix last season were less than the conference games. So this would be a change in pricing and philosophy. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 Our marquee non-con game was on the road last year so Oregon being higher isn't surprising. But Wyoming ....... Quote Link to comment
JOEY Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Nice, I need to actually go to some games this year. I go to concerts all year, no excuse to why I can't go to a game other than not being able to get a ticket Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Wow, the faculty doesn't get much of a break! Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 Wow, the faculty doesn't get much of a break! Other than I would guess they don't have to make a donation on top of the ticket price which is a pretty nice break. Quote Link to comment

Yea faculty don't pay donation and have pretty decent seats (sections 1-4) in east stadium. I know because my dad worked for university system and doesn't have to do donation. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Kind of surprised there are that many seats reserved for faculty. 47 rows times ... what ... 25 seats per row times 4 sections. That's about 4,700 tickets. Quote Link to comment

That's about 4,700 tickets. Usually each faculty member gets two tickets, so divide that by 2 and it's a little more manageable. I sit in section 2 with my dad, who's a faculty member, but there's plenty of non-faculty members around us. Quote Link to comment
Mike Harvat Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Annnnnnd I will continue to buy my tickets a la carte from friends trying to unload them the week of the game Quote Link to comment

Do you think it is mostly faculty there or are they selling the tickets? Quote Link to comment

Do you think it is mostly faculty there or are they selling the tickets? US College News says that there is a 21:1 of student to faculty ratio. With a enrollment of 25,000 that would only put the faculty population at approximately 2,000. Obviously that could be off, or maybe they don't count administrators, secretaries, etc. They might only be calculating the professors. http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/university-of-nebraska-2565 From what I've gathered there's three possibilities. 1) Faculty members that buy seats and attend every game. 2) Faculty members that buy seats and then sell their tickets to make a slight profit. I know professors personally that do this from year to year. 3) There's a possibility that if not all the faculty seats are bought, that they might then be opened to the general public for purchase. I don't know if this is actually true, or even done at UNL, but I could definitely see it as a possibility. 2 Quote Link to comment

I had a former student whose Mom worked for a UNL extension office in the middle of Nebraska and she got 2 tickets. Quote Link to comment
