Its crazy that they have not offered season tickets in 30 yrs. It is normally just a general alumni lottery. I think their reason for it (they need $40M to repair the stadium) is BS though. If any school can afford it w/o charging their fans, its Notre Dame.

For the first time in more than 30 years, Notre Dame will make 5,000 season tickets available to football games starting next season, charging a fee to help pay for more than $40 million in repairs to Notre Dame Stadium.

The tickets will be offered first to alumni, donors and others affiliated with the university ahead of the general public, John Affleck-Graves, Notre Dame's executive vice president, said Thursday.

In addition to the cost of a season ticket, which is $413 this year, there will be an annual fee of $2,000 per ticket for sideline seats; $1,500 per ticket for seats in the corner of the stadium; and $1,250 per ticket for end zone seats.

During the ND - Georgia Tech game, the anouncers said that some Irish fans bought season tickets to Georgia Tech just so they could go to that 1 game.

No offense anyone but if the Aggies start charging $2000 per seat for any sideline seat I'll have to be watching the game from home on my TV. That's outrageous.

I agree Mole. That's just nuts.

It might be outrageous, but our yearly donation requirements for our good seats isn't much better. I think the zone club donation per seat is even worse than that.

That's the difference between our program and thiers. Those were sold out within the hour they were even put on the market.

$2000 bucks gets you some fancy schmancy seats. If you start charging $2000 for any sideline seat like the Irish are your going to drive out a lot of people.
