UW giving away tickets
Comments

UW has been a tier 1 program for maybe 5 years total in its history

LOL
Stubhub has tickets for $8
Too high -
Husky fever is back!

Does anyone want the free tickets? I will put in for the Arkansas St game and give them away to you jokers.

They should be handing out tickets. Why top row seats are priced the way they are is ridiculous. Watched a show about Michigan and their efforts, decades ago, to get people to games. AD started selling extra seats for $1 to high school students in the area, and did the band day thing to fill in shit seats. Stadium was full, adding to the experience, creating demand, and building a fan base in the process. Get butts in the seats. Hopefully young impressionable butts.

Back of envelope tells me they have 15-20 THOUSAND tickets they can give away.
Anyone in the AD who uses tagline "Greatest Setting in College Football" should be fired after Saturday. I laughed at UCLA/Hawaii in the Rose Bowl last week w/ their attendance of 35k. Touche on me, we are the JV version of that.
Post Pandemic UW Season Ticket Base went from 44 thousand down to 30. Add in at best 20K tickets sold thru secondary/walk up ticket sales and for the typical game that isn't SC/Zeros/Cougs/Big name OOC your looking at the stadium attendance that will have 50,000 people in it at peak in a 70,000 stadium.
E-1 tailgating days are numbered as UW long term plans include that space for Office Buildings. Those numbers along with overall slow drip of Husky Football as it pertains to public interest in general, paints a scenario where one day UW just plays games at Seahawks stadium.

There’s no way they are playing games at the Seahawks stadium for at least 20 years until the debt service at minimum is retiredgodawgst said:Back of envelope tells me they have 15-20 THOUSAND tickets they can give away.

Beat Michigan (particularly in an impressive manner) and enthusiasm starts to return
I suspect there are a lot of people that aren’t really comfortable going to spend time in a crowd while COVID COVIDs -
I was going to take the kids to the Sounders game Sunday (fuck off...), but my beard put a stop to it because she didn't like the idea of them being squeezed in with 30K people. Because Delta.Tequilla said:

I promise she's worth it...
Local fear of COVID is a real reason for lowered attendance. The AD isn't just scapegoating that. -
