I am sorry for the family’s loss. With that said donors when the stadium was expanded was only required to
donate a minimum of $500 for the two generation season tickets. Some obviously donated more. That means for all subsequent years, ONLY buying the tickets without donating additional monies every year unlike Cougar Club members are required to do.
In my situation, I have donated $100 thousand. Yet, every year I have to pay thousands of dollars to Cougar Club in dues and then still pay for my tickets on top of that. Despite the amount, our level or seats DON’T TRANSFER to our children!!
I know several of the original donors and now offspring buy their tickets and then sell them - nice deal, right!! For me to break even I have to not only get the face value back but also my annual dues…
People including fans need to stop their self-pitty and entitlement and either step-up and donate or move to other seats. By them moving, the Cougar Club can then sell their seats for far more money, benefiting the program.
Sorry, but although my uncle was an original donor, his children only took advantage for a couple of years before giving their seats up.
