Well, you don't have to buy them. That may help lower your B.P.**

This may be the most ridiculous post I have seen in awhile
VT ChemE 1986 • 06/07/24 09:41 AM ET
I think my anger come across a little misplaced, not so much at a rise in
hoosnowahokie • 06/07/24 11:12 AM ET
It’s frustrating BUT It’s counterproductive to think we’re getting f’d over
hokiepro • 06/07/24 06:29 AM ET
For locals like you and me pro, the onus should not be on us to purchase
hoosnowahokie • 06/07/24 11:21 AM ET
Ahh yes. Agreed on that point
hokiepro • 06/07/24 03:55 PM ET
Just got this in the mail.
saret • 06/05/24 10:32 AM ET
That’s spin trying to put your favorite condiment on the 💩 sandwich we
hokiepro • 06/06/24 06:14 AM ET
Yep, and the pain for the fans will keep growing**
VT ChemE 1986 • 06/07/24 09:44 AM ET
These tickets better be offered at far below face value or I won't buy any.
tchokie • 06/05/24 01:52 PM ET
Not trying to be rude but you not buying any additional OOC game tickets
hokiehill1117 • 06/06/24 03:52 PM ET
I'm not trying to "stick it" to VT. I'm voicing my opinion as a 15 year
tchokie • 06/06/24 08:54 PM ET
OCC tickets
nflhokie • 06/05/24 06:16 PM ET
It will be interesting to see if this new program gets the desired results.**
saret • 06/05/24 07:53 PM ET
You miss my point. I paid the same price for my season tickets this year as
tchokie • 06/05/24 07:19 PM ET
Pretty stupid plan, this will lose them money and fans.**
Rahvatech • 06/05/24 09:06 PM ET
It’s just a hidden price increase for those who want to attend
RJHokie • 06/05/24 07:40 PM ET
I think overall increase in Hokie Club membership is
Rahvatech • 06/05/24 09:11 PM ET
Increasing numbers of recent grads in the HC is smart
hokiepro • 06/06/24 06:22 AM ET
I agree about the increase in HC member numbers.
RJHokie • 06/05/24 09:43 PM ET
It would be interesting to see.........

VT AD does not strike me as an institution who does benchmarking.**
NokieHokie • 06/05/24 10:57 PM ET
Well, I bet he does now, but pre-Baylor wake up I think
RJHokie • 06/05/24 11:14 PM ET
I can only hope. I don't trust that it is happening for one second though.**
NokieHokie • 06/05/24 11:17 PM ET
I don’t believe you are alone with that opinion 😏.**
RJHokie • 06/05/24 11:21 PM ET
I believe Phlegar definitely upgraded VT development
RJHokie • 06/05/24 10:55 PM ET
Yeah, they gamed the numbers during the Drive for 25 to
saret • 06/05/24 09:32 PM ET
Agree, but apparently a lot of other schools do the same.
RJHokie • 06/05/24 09:47 PM ET
Totally agree. They all just consider it marketing. ◄
saret • 06/06/24 08:32 AM ET
Actually I did pay attention and know exactly what's going on. Of course
tchokie • 06/05/24 07:53 PM ET
This year is the experimental year to see what happens.
RJHokie • 06/05/24 07:57 PM ET
You know what would've been better?
hoosnowahokie • 06/05/24 09:06 PM ET
I believe that was considered, and agree it’s a good idea.
RJHokie • 06/05/24 09:24 PM ET
Reasonable.**
saret • 06/05/24 08:08 PM ET
Their email gives their rationale for why they're doing it,
saret • 06/05/24 02:32 PM ET
Couldn't agree more. I'm local and attend most but certainly not all home
tchokie • 06/05/24 03:30 PM ET
If they can find a way for anyone to come to the games with the tickets
hokiehill1117 • 06/06/24 03:56 PM ET
Obviously I live locally, also. It is very seldom I miss any game.
saret • 06/05/24 06:15 PM ET
I only missed one home MBB game last year and that was because
