I pay an assload of booster fee but at least I know my Sec 12 aisle seat will always be there for a comfortable session of leg stretching or standing when needed…

For a newbie coming in for season passes in Hogtown, the booster fee alone will set you back $4200 before even paying for the tickets…

And there is no guarantee that the seats won’t be way up in the “Sunshine” (read “Sunburn”) seats in the North EZ of Benny Hill…

Perhaps this is a good time to start snatching up as many seats as possible before the winning ways return in Tally…

Buttloads of money to be made on StubHub later when the ship rights it’s course, my man…

They reconfigured the stadium, so that the visitor seats are in the nosebleeds in a corner. However, my seats were Row 68 on the 10… I love them, since I don’t like to sit below Row 40ish. In FSU’s infinite wisdom, my section and the three to my left (corner) are being reconfigured, and folks are being moved to “comparable” seats closer to the field. The problem is that they can’t fit my whole section into the first half of it, so I’m betting that I get put a section or two over more in the corner. We shall see. I might get lucky with my ticket move request, since renewals are down again, but I doubt it.

Mediocre Football + Seats I don’t like + I can still go to a couple of games per year + HDTV might just equal me not renewing next year. We’ll see.

In their infinite wisdom they’ve also moved the small student section around the Marching Chiefs, away from them to sit on the other side of the stadium with the majority of the students, basically isolating the Chiefs. Brilliant no?

Between the Boosters always screwing up where my club money goes, and the ticket office being a pain in the ass, it’s been a very frustrating couple of seasons as a fan, alumnus and booster. And they wonder why people are bailing out?

That makes no sense at all…

How/why in the hell would a long time annual season ticket holder pay for their tickets and not have any idea where they would be sitting?

Who is running things up there in the ticket office?

So, NCC…

Do you have any idea where you are actually sitting yet then?

I think the struggles on the field more than Bowden taking his time stepping down makes it an easier decision to give up tickets. Toss in the fact that they “moved” some season ticket holders to “better or equivalent seating” due a seating reconfiguration, but didn’t tell us where the seats are until long after the renewal date for season tickets, and it’s just kind of a perfect storm for renewal problems. The appeal process is stupid, imho, but I also believe that every other school out there would do it. I’m just a bit ticked off that my Booster money is being wasted on laywers, when all Seminole Boosters, Inc. wants you to believe is that the money is for scholarships for the kids. Yeah it is, but it’s also for a lot of other stuff.

NIce work, Noles!

As to the other…

Besides the obvious issues of Tally’s out of the way positioning and a down economy affecting ticket sales…

Do you feel the recent struggles on field, uncertainty by Bowden on stepping down and the wasteful appeal process is adding to the disillusion in the Nole fan base thereby pushing ticket sales down yet lower again this year, NCC?

I’m sure you are broken hearted about Dawg losses though WF LOL.
