I am sure there was some of that but bigger issue for the AD is the let's assume 30% (I think it's closer to 50% but to be conservative) of the people for whatever reason were on the cusp of not re-upping thier tickets and this was the tipping point for them.Doog_de_Jour said:While I’m sure indifference or dissatisfaction with the program could account for the refund requests, lots of people were furloughed or lost their jobs. Might’ve just been cutting expenses.
That's 4000 people not coming back in 2021. Multipy that by 700-1k per ticket and that's 3 million in lost revenue minimum out of your budget. -

Or in my case I just got sick and tired of politics in sports. The NBA, NHL and a few cuck MLB teams boycotting games because a violent rapist was shot by police was the last straw for me. I requested my refund that day. I will be back if the politics go away.Doog_de_Jour said:While I’m sure indifference or dissatisfaction with the program could account for the refund requests, lots of people were furloughed or lost their jobs.

People underestimate how detrimental moving the student section is...
Not only does it lower the general gameday atmosphere, but any good entertainment industry knows that the cigarette and beer companies did it best.
You cater to the younger poorer generation, hook them on the irrational nostalgia while they are young, and they give you money for the rest of their lives when they are rich...

Yes and no. The problem with UW is they made their bed in the last few decades. The jock from the local HS that grew up going to UW gaymes with his two dads no longer is the demographic that they want as a student body. My kids couldn't get in, so one, who never missed a gayme with me since he was 5 ended up taking his student ticket money to the land of Bitchfork, and never missed a gayme there. Local kids that do make the UW tend to be of the non white variety, that go to play school, and spend Saturday taking extra classes rather than getting drunk and watching football. Then they cater to out of staters because the tuition is greater. And then out of country makes up the rest of the student body.Houhusky said:People underestimate how detrimental moving the student section is...

Even if the gameday was the greatest time in the world for these kids, the majority of them leave the state when they get done and go back home, and the ones who stay are Microsoft/Amazon fags that would rather scarf up with the Sounders anyway.
Football is a dying sport with the youngs in the WA.
