If the AD told you that you could keep those seats but the ticket price for each seat was going up $10/seat per game, would you still buy the tickets? Because I can almost guarantee that at a bronze level $250 donation to CC, your seats are likely still available when your seat selection comes. And that $250 donation equates to just a $10 seat increase per game for 4 tickets—the additional cost for each seat per game goes down from $10 if you buy more than 4 seats.
