Reading my Investment Guide...they are removing non-conference
hoosnowahokie • 10/02/23 09:09 PM ET
Sounds like a very good way of getting more sold seats actually filled.
Femoyer Hokie • 10/03/23 11:42 AM ET
This. I'm hopeful this will actually present an option to people that
I love VT! • 10/03/23 12:30 PM ET
There already is this option. ACC-only games have been a package for

FWIW, the Christmas game I referenced in my post above was

I've come to realize that there are people out there who...
vthokieq • 10/03/23 12:43 PM ET
In this case the Investment Guide didn’t fully explain the process.
RJHokie • 10/03/23 01:38 PM ET
So, so true.**
I love VT! • 10/03/23 01:19 PM ET
This is what it is about.**
Nelsonia Hokie • 10/03/23 11:44 AM ET
"Investment Guide" is a crafty euphemism for "this is how you must spend!"**
UpperQuad • 10/02/23 10:46 PM ET
So we have 6 tickets and there are people in our seats every game. If they
UTPr0sim • 10/02/23 10:22 PM ET
Another alternative, Nice post. See my response to @I love VT! , infra.**
saret • 10/03/23 09:20 AM ET
That’s too simple.
RJHokie • 10/02/23 10:29 PM ET
It sounds like you are reading that right. I didn't realize that.
nvpbrown • 10/02/23 09:53 PM ET
Interesting thing is, they make double off the non conference tickets.
134562Hokie • 10/03/23 08:47 AM ET
Good info. This explains what they propose to do.
RJHokie • 10/03/23 12:47 PM ET
There's that proverbial AthDept lack of transparency.**
saret • 10/03/23 09:22 AM ET
Transparency is over-rated**
HokiePATT • 10/03/23 04:26 PM ET
Clearly you have never run a business/organization…**
Brewing_Hokie • 10/03/23 06:07 PM ET
Clearly you would be wrong.
HokiePATT • 10/07/23 09:11 PM ET
That's a matter of opinion.**
saret • 10/03/23 05:01 PM ET
Truth!**
RJHokie • 10/03/23 05:33 PM ET
Truth……it shows a lot of the details still aren’t finalized
RJHokie • 10/03/23 12:49 PM ET
The first page made it seem that way
hoosnowahokie • 10/02/23 11:05 PM ET
Pls let us know what you find out.**

Maybe not this cycle, bur probably next cycle.** ◄

It’s the 24-25 season, so we get to ***** and moan about it

Need to complain to the VTTO chief Oh, that's right, ........**
Atlee Hokie • 10/03/23 12:08 AM ET
Good luck there.......**
RJHokie • 10/03/23 11:28 AM ET
Ah. The next general reseating.
Atlee Hokie • 10/03/23 12:05 AM ET
See my post below for a different local perspective, Atlee.
I love VT! • 10/03/23 04:59 AM ET
It will make them more expensive, and that is the purpose. However,
saret • 10/02/23 10:08 PM ET
Saret, I am also local & use all my tickets...but...
I love VT! • 10/03/23 04:53 AM ET
Here's the thing: If you have all the data about people who aren't getting
hoosnowahokie • 10/03/23 09:20 AM ET
FWIW, that's exactly what happened when I renewed for this year...
I love VT! • 10/03/23 11:58 AM ET
Right, I'm more concerned if they are going to start charging me more money
hoosnowahokie • 10/03/23 12:34 PM ET
Again, a good post. Your opening line is an experience I have not
saret • 10/03/23 12:21 PM ET
Could you clarify which part of my position on scanning data you find
I love VT! • 10/03/23 01:16 PM ET
Again, a good post. I'll try to be clearer. As I said, using scanning
saret • 10/03/23 04:00 PM ET
Re the scanning data...
I love VT! • 10/03/23 04:31 PM ET
OK,I think.**
saret • 10/03/23 05:06 PM ET
Basically we both agree with your statement...
I love VT! • 10/03/23 11:43 PM ET
I hope that is the case.**
RJHokie • 10/03/23 11:31 AM ET
Nice post, but I think you and I are just going to disagree.
saret • 10/03/23 09:18 AM ET
👍👍👍**
RJHokie • 10/02/23 10:12 PM ET
Ain’t gonna be cheaper for sure.
RJHokie • 10/02/23 10:06 PM ET
I hear you...but...were any of us operating under the assumption that
I love VT! • 10/03/23 05:05 AM ET
Price increases are expected since it's well known that the costs
RJHokie • 10/03/23 11:27 AM ET
Agree with that. But they appear to be doing it selectively, to the usual
saret • 10/03/23 09:27 AM ET
Yeah, the AthDept could screw up a wet dream.
saret • 10/02/23 09:52 PM ET
Truth.
RJHokie • 10/02/23 10:07 PM ET
Whit is a grifter and money grubber. Grifting on MBB, but not charging
saret • 10/02/23 10:11 PM ET
Agree.
RJHokie • 10/02/23 10:14 PM ET
Obviously, Whit and I don't talk much. Of course, Whit doesn't
saret • 10/03/23 09:28 AM ET
You guys plan to call him a money grubbing hypocrite turd brain grifter ...
I love VT! • 10/03/23 05:22 AM ET
From my experience best to just not engage
hokiesteve01 • 10/03/23 06:03 PM ET
Freaking unhinged
WestEndHokie39 • 10/03/23 11:50 AM ET
There are a lot of "hidden charges" in the new prices.
RJHokie • 10/03/23 11:20 AM ET
Speaking of transparency...care to answer my question? **
I love VT! • 10/03/23 11:40 AM ET
Which one?
RJHokie • 10/03/23 12:36 PM ET
Whether you plan to call him a money grubbing hypocrite turd brain grifter
I love VT! • 10/03/23 01:18 PM ET
I would have no problem saying it to him. I spent 28-years being
saret • 10/03/23 04:06 PM ET
I don't think anyone doubts your ability to be confrontational, Saret.
I love VT! • 10/03/23 04:50 PM ET
Anybody in the AD that doesn’t know who RJ or Saret is, is an idiot…
Brewing_Hokie • 10/03/23 06:14 PM ET
I didn't suggest people weren't aware of who they are...
I love VT! • 10/03/23 11:36 PM ET
Would you confront saret and RJ to their faces, they way you have here?**
NokieHokie • 10/03/23 05:09 PM ET
Indeed. Directly and absent name-calling or snark.
I love VT! • 10/03/23 11:38 PM ET
Actually, @RJHokie isa great guy, and I try to emulate him.**
saret • 10/03/23 05:16 PM ET
I can agree with that. **
saret • 10/03/23 05:08 PM ET
@saret used the grifter term and he definitely would tell him that
RJHokie • 10/03/23 01:24 PM ET
So you'll just go with "turd brain" then?
I love VT! • 10/03/23 01:34 PM ET
Yeah, I probably would in some cases, as would a fair number
RJHokie • 10/03/23 01:48 PM ET
I got no problem doing it.**
saret • 10/03/23 09:29 AM ET
Yes they do. **
VintonHokies • 10/03/23 08:03 AM ET
Yeah, another stupid move by the AD turd brains.
