Football ticket "Specials" for the first three games.

[NCHawker]

We are seeing the fallout from the 4-8 record last year. I was wondering how that would affect ticket sales.

By the look of this sale and previous emails for sales of single game tickets I would say season ticket sales are down a good percentage, 8-10-15 % , who knows.

People on HN have been saying it is the first time their requests for reseating have been granted.

Another bad season this year and the 2014 reseating and re-donation appeal will go poorly or need to be canceled.

Yikes, I hope we dont get to that point.

Uihawk82, people will come, Uihawk82. They'll come to Kinnick for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up Melrose, not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at the stadium gates as innocent as children, longing for the past. "Of course, we won't mind if you have a look around," you'll say. "It's only fifty dollars per person." They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it; for it is money they have and peace they lack.

And they'll walk out to the bleachers, and sit in shirt-sleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the sidelines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game, and it'll be as if they'd dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick, they'll have to brush them away from their faces.

People will come, Uihawk82.

The one constant through all the years Uihawk82, has been Hawkeye Football. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But Hawkeye Football has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Uihawk82. It reminds us of all that once was good, and it could be again. Oh, people will come, Uihawk82. People will most definitely come.

What is a marginal game goer?
I have season tickets and I park in someone's yard near the stadium. I can get out pretty quickly too.

Someone who goes to one game a year or every other year. They maybe dont have a place to tailgate by kinnick so they park on the other side of the tracks or downtown and walk over the river.

I usually park quite a way from the stadium and walk a ways up to the game. Just easier to get out.

Had a buddy looking for a couple of tickets to the Western Michigan game.....we were able to take advantage of the cheaper tickets.

I too took the nearly 8 minutes to watch that video. It was nicely done!
