Only about half showed up for the normal games last year

I would say we had 4 high attention games last year (SDSU, Utah, Gonzaga, SMC) Every other game started with barely half the lower bowl filled.

Now we will have more like 8 high attention games depending on how scheduling shakes out. Probably even lower attendance for the rest of the games.

Here is the picture of where the lower bowl is at as far as selection. We are only through Legacy III right now as well.

BIG XII Season basketball tickets are well worth the cost.

Are you saying that tickets are worth a donation of…

I don't think they're worth that much but apparently they are.

U donated $38K all for this season? What level is that?

Cougarbib

7/17/23 11:45pm

My understanding that only legacy donors will be allowed for lower bowl seats?

Stucoug83

Correct

They better show up for the games. It sucks to have the upper bowl pretty much

I have a feeling it's going to be even worse with businesses probably getting in

7/17/23 9:03pm

Are you a legacy? I’ve been told it won’t show all available seats if you aren’t legacy until they are done w/ those.

Yes

What does the upper bowl look like?

CaliWG

7/17/23 2:22pm

Hardly anything taken except dead center court.

CSoul

7/17/23 2:27pm

That particular section is the bench area mostly behind the screen. They don't

jreid191

7/17/23 2:31pm

I wish they'd sell those seats this year

BYU Fan

7/17/23 2:58pm

They should just get rid of the social media board.

7/17/23 3:08pm

I know they like it for FB, but it is a waste of valuable seating for BB

CaliWG

The views would still be obstructed by the camera platform and cameras that

7/17/23 3:14pm

I'd buy obstructed view seats in a heartbeat right now

BYU Fan

7/17/23 3:19pm

They need to move the cameras down to where the handicap seating is currently

CaliWG

7/17/23 3:21pm

Yep, the current location of the cameras is completely nonsensical.

COACHdrn

7/17/23 5:29pm

They never blocked so many seats off before the board

7/17/23 3:23pm

lots of availability still in chairs and benches.

Two years ago I bought lower bowl seats (row 21) in September

Single game tickets will be available especially for bball. And if we get absolutely destroyed this year (like I think

BYU Fan

It's that there is demand, and that's a good thing

7/17/23 5:13pm

This is where I disagree with most. BYU eliminated about 6,000 seats since I

Scalpers on KSL are a lot cheaper that scalpers on ticket reseller sites. Fees.

Cougarbib

7/17/23 11:54pm

Yormark may be into something. If tickets all sell - more eyeballs watching TV

Cougarbib

7/17/23 11:53pm

it's even worse than it looks. sidelines were singles and triples only and only

Mayor of Cougartown

7/17/23 2:34pm

Yep. Lower bowl is only row 20 or higher and mostly in the corners.

CSoul

I couldn’t get 4 together at noontime today in sections 8,9,10 had to take 2 in

jamfam

No chance at tickets for me.

byuluvr

Demand is going to be significantly less next year, when we win only 2 Conference games this year.

7/17/23 3:52pm

That's my guess

BYU Fan

7/17/23 3:57pm

I'm not Legacy, but I'm just hoping I can get upper bowl tickets this year. It was amazing pay $115 a seat...not anymore

7/17/23 4:03pm

Yep, with the reseating I knew my lower seats were gone

BYU Fan

7/17/23 4:15pm

I'm hoping to just get any tickets this year even if they are nosebleed benches,

jreid191

7/17/23 4:21pm

That's what I'm banking on!

How many seats are blocked out

If legacy one donors get shut out, next year, they need to pull back the max ticket allotment for the various levels.

What's happening to all the tickets? Every Legacy and above CC must be taking

Jasbo

The photo in OP is showing lower bowl only. The whole upper bowl is still available except ROC and much of bottom bowl

Soupie

7/17/23 8:23pm

I think one issue is that if you buy this year you get to lock in those seats for at least a few years. It seems wise

HarlemCoug

7/17/23 9:09pm

Corporate/Businesses?

wilsdad

7/17/23 8:20pm

Seems like corporate $ go to the courtside seats. $20,000 per seat for front row of the hospitality section.
