Why do recruits get free seats? Are we picking and choosing who BYU selects for benefits?

These are Legacy seats. These

They should have to pay market rate for the tickets.

arizonacougarfan

I believe they do, I think it's the seat location they're complaining about losing

End zone seats

We've been there with end zone seats. But if you plan ahead you can keep them.

BlueCoug

Well, "market rate" for those seats would include huge donations every year, so they aren't really...

jaromp

1/20/23 7:37am

This may or may not be true. On average the season tickets are more expensive

johnnybyu

1/20/23 7:48am

No, these seats would be sold at that rate, plus hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations

jaromp

1/20/23 7:59am

I don’t believe other that Cougar Club BYU has those donation seats. I sit in

Nat Gas Man

1/20/23 8:35am

Lol, the school doesn't sell them to StubHub, the grandson of the legacy donor who still buys them does

jaromp

1/20/23 8:43am

BYU loves secondary market sales as they get to double dip. Charge a high

johnnybyu

How do you think BYU comes up with the current prices? They are trying to meet

johnnybyu

So they aren’t allowing them to be passed one generation anymore?

Corn

1/20/23 7:34am

No, they already passed one generation

jaromp

1/20/23 7:35am

Not according to her

Corn

1/20/23 7:38am

I think she’s mistaken.

eyebleedblu

1/20/23 7:42am

Yeah, I would be very surprised if this were the case. Likely, she doesn't remember when her grandparents had the rights

jaromp

1/20/23 7:45am

I think your right based on the ago of her father in the obituary. Sure is

Bullrider

Is it generation? Or two passings?

El Jefe

1/20/23 7:50am

Good point

Corn

1/20/23 7:51am

They can pass to another person once. Generation is not the issue. We were

Two passings

eyebleedblu

I think the generational passing thing is being phased out this year.

They are not legacy then.

What was your family's deal?

Rivers Cuomo

There are two legacy ticket arrangements out there. Both were from construction

Nat Gas Man

1/20/23 9:11am

If your wife passes away but you are still alive, do the tickets go away?

This is a good attitude.

I like this attitude. Be grateful for the benefits you’ve enjoyed for years.

They’re not legacy seats, they’re end zone.

I've seen nothing in her statements saying that her dad was a legacy donor to the stadium construction in 1983. Just

Rhino84

1/20/23 8:08am

What’s been shared seems to be she wants the rights to her father’s accrued

Inciting a Twitter mob to get what you want is despicable behavior

I don’t think they’re legacy seats. I think they’re seats her Dad had access to because of his CC status. Now that he

Considering they have a True Blue video made about their family, maybe it would

Why should she get preference over thousands of other cougar faithful?

RE: Why should she get preference over thousands of other cougar faithful?

ExitStageLeft

1/20/23 10:07am

Do those other cougar faithful have a BYU produced video about them?

AltTabbins

1/20/23 11:04am

Please explain why that should warrant special treatment

El Jefe

1/20/23 11:08am

Because BYU deemed them important enough to film an entire video on them...

AltTabbins

1/20/23 11:29am

no, that is stupid

Turd Ferguson

1/20/23 10:27am

Why is it stupid?

AltTabbins

1/20/23 11:05am

so if a video is made about their family, they get special treatment? Dumb

Turd Ferguson

Why stop there? Why does Max Hall get to step on the field during games?

AltTabbins

1/20/23 11:27am

Mostly because it's good for the program (recruits and players) to have former players involved

El Jefe

1/20/23 11:32am

Braydon works for the BYU video staff.

AltTabbins

1/20/23 11:37am

lol, no it doesn't

Turd Ferguson

1/20/23 11:39am

Ok, so staff of the program shouldn't get any kind of considerations.. got it.

AltTabbins

1/20/23 11:41am

I have been going to games for almost 50 years, I think I need an exception too.

Dynomite

For good or bad, season ticket holders can't lock in a location in the stadium.

Tithing does not go to BYU athletics however.
