to have joined Cougar Club for it to count for current year purchases. I think it is in December of prior calendar year. Not sure if they extended that for 2023.
Anyone who understood precisely how the process works should have anticipated the demand bump and would be very short-sighted to not have at least paid the $60 for the lowest level. I would have paid at least Silver level had I known them what I know now.
Starting next season, even end-zone seat buyers need to be concerned about the same thing.
