Shoot, I donate a lot of money, bought 2 extra tickets that cost $80.00 for reserved season tickets last year to find out that this year season tickets went up 100% from $80 to $160 dollars. Now I have to pay at least $360 more dollars for these extra tickets. Will probably not buy them next year. And to beat it all, the men's ticket package that I bought was for conference games only and to go to non-conference games you will have to buy tickets for those games aside from the season ticket package. By the way, the men's tickets I bought are for conference games only and to go watch them play non-conference games it will cost me more to watch these games. Last year I paid for 18 total games a certain amount of money but these year the 10 conference games will cost what I paid for the 18 games last year. Again, this will probably be my last year giving support to Student Aid Foundation and buying tickets for all of the major sports. I can use my money else where. I have been buying football tickets since 1978 and am a long time contributor of the Hokie Club. Loyalty does not mean much anymore.

Yep. They're rejecting more money (additional $80/ticket).

I echo what you've said, it's difficult to arrive 1.5-2 hours prior to a

Agree. And while it's little consolation, I haven't heard anyone who is

Another reason attendance should be tracked

I've been advocating for this for years...

I think they need to fix this.

RJHokie 06/10/24 09:46 PM ET
Sadly, what you express is "on target", RJ !**
FLKEYSHOKIE 06/11/24 09:00 PM ET
yeah I know, but it sure is sad to see premier seats empty and yet locals
j9hokie 06/10/24 10:36 PM ET
And there is no excuse for this.
GoFightingGobblers 06/11/24 07:30 AM ET
Agree.**
RJHokie 06/10/24 10:52 PM ET
Interesting, still not sure how these times were determined

You don't need to stand in line. If you have a GA ticket you are guaranteed

Many attendees are unable to ascend high up in the arena hence the

If GA tickets were converted to reserved they would be high up**
hokeyhokie 06/12/24 06:42 PM ET
Not that high. Row W, which is only 1/3 of the way up in the corners.**
schubee 06/13/24 12:26 PM ET
Yeah, I hope there are not many empty seats.
RJHokie 06/12/24 12:06 PM ET
Glad to see I wasn't alone I suppose
