I mean I know we’re “cheaper” with our donation levels than Kansas, Kansas State and Iowa even with this increase based on what was relayed to me.
Kansas State is way cheaper. Not even close.

Another $300 in donation and $400 in sales tax between FB and MBB is a tough pill to swallow in entertainment budget.

Hard to believe donations will have jumped 80% since 2020

I have to say, attending the eiu basketball game this year at the Carver hole in the ground, people constantly going to get beer or pee was kind of a pain and made watching the game less enjoyable.

I get the opportunity for a new revenue stream and I like beer. But hell, I’d spend half the game in the john with my urinary system.
Bahia ha just cave and get the diapers.

Plus at the hole in the ground don't you have like 57 people in your row. Shouldn't translate at a decent stadium.

I just did it on this site a few months ago. If you want, look around. We have some of the highest prices in all of the B12, and most of P4. Just our ticket prices are higher than most, then our donation levels on top is higher than most. I have done the comparisons and posted all the info here, I am not going to do it again.

If you dont believe it, look it up yourself.

Well, we were below the average for the big 12 season ticket price.

I have not compared related fees for CC member cost.

Not sure why people continue to say our tickets are cheap. Our football and basketball tickets are in line with top programs and in many cases, more expensive than our peers.

K-State season FB tickets max out at $360. Iowa’s are $400-$600. Wisconsin’s max out at $500. Auburn’s are $495-$555. LSU maxes out at $600.

Ours are $650.
General public upper level $325. Lower level $450.

Are you talking ticket prices or donations? Or combo? Because Kansas State, Kansas and Iowa for example do not let you get more than 4 tickets at the equivalent to our Directors level where we get the ability to get 8, 12 or 16 tickets per sport.
BOTH

Kansas State Highest price ticket $360
Kansas State Highest donation $1300/ticket. Keep in mind You can get 50 yard line tickets for $350 a seat donation.

Ours prior to this increase:
$650 per ticket
$15,000 for directors club, to get 50yrd line and up to 8 tickets
$7500 for victory, maybe 50yrd line, and up to 4 tickets.

Kstate, 4 x 1660 for each max price ticket with donation = 6640
Kstate 8 x 1660 for each max price ticket with donation = 13280

ISU 4 x 650 = 2600 plus 7500 = 10100
ISU 8 x 650 = 5200 plus 15000 = 20700

Ticket prices are pretty minimal compared to donation prices.

If you want to compare lowest price tickets.... do it.

KState lowest price tickets are... $150, ours...$325.

Also our highest ticket prices in the clubs are way more than even our regular $650 ticks.

Just sell beer.... makes no sense whatsoever. If you truly cared about people being drunk and stupid JP... you wouldn't allow drinking at tailgating at all... and certainly wouldn't allow people to leave at halftime to go get more drunk.

Don't pretend to be moral and ethical JP... college athletics is WAY beyond that point... for a long time now.

For some people, Jamie is wrong and a buffoon, it makes no difference what he does and how he does it. You can’t have a reasonable discussion with people in this camp.
