WOW - WHY NOT INCREASE THE SEAT COST BY 5.5% OR 6% FOR TICKETTS -- ADD ALL O THE ABOVE % AND DIVIDE BY 4 AND YOU COME UP SITH 5.5$ -- LET THE AD'S GO OUT A FIND CORPORATE SPONSERS TO FILL OUT THE MONIES NEEDED TO PAY THEIR COACH AND STAFF THEIR HIGH WAGES --- we dropped our season ticks form mbb for several years but renewed then a couple of weeks ago -- go out and find sponsors -- their is a BIG harbor to search out sponsers -- there is another very large company that has taken over the mc donald plant at the airport -- lets see what this AD.s can do in place of always taking the easy way out and raise tick prices -------------
From the D-1 Tracker:
San Diego State is raising men’s basketball ticket prices by 20% for most seating areas next season. The San Diego Union-Tribune’s Mark Zeigler notes that based on last season’s prices, a “midcourt seat in the 15th row will cost $140.63 per game when the mandatory donation to the Aztec Club is counted.” Aztecs AD John David Wicker explained in an email to season ticket holders that “while exciting Aztec basketball lies ahead, 2024-25 will also present new challenges. Alongside annual inflation, we are facing increases in various departmental expenses. … These increases collectively result in an additional $650K in student-athlete scholarships alone.” Specifically, Wicker cited increases of 6% in tuition, 6.5% in housing, 5% in meals and 4.5% in “other student expenses.” Zeigler: “He did not include coach Brian Dutcher’s five-year contract that gave him a $900K raise to $2.3M for 2023-24 with $100K bumps in each successive season.”
