I was just about to start a similar thread. I got mine yesterday, pretty cool looking. I'll scan them so others can see.


Anyone else have theirs yet/care to share what they look like?

They ain't pretty, but I'm not collecting them. I do have a few stubs, the 05 Cat/Griz game in Bozeman, the 06 Colorado game in Boulder, and the 06 playoff game against Furman.

This is my first year ever with season tickets, I'm pretty jacked! :thumb:

First time in a long time I didn't get season tickets, due to my pending move to the San Francisco area.

I got mine in the mail yesterday, just a basic looking ticket. The biggest problem is that they say Stony Brook and not Hofstra :cry:

Fucking Rabinowitz scumbag.

The chairback seats at Estes are right in front of the gaurd rail and walking path up front..doesn't make sense for me to spend more on an obstructed view. :ohno: I'll sit with the rowdy crowd a little higher in the bleacher seats and get an overall field view anyway. Plus all the blue-hairs and empty corporate bought seats are down there..not much noise at all! :oops: :lol:

Just found out the paper stock arrived yesterday and tickets are getting printed up soon! :notworthy: :clap: :clap:

Yeah, i've sat all around that stadium and like the upper deck the best. Great part is, i told them specifically where i wanted and they gave it to me. Section 204, towards the front closest to the 50, first five seats off the aisle, they totally hooked me up.

Maybe they're trying to make up for how awesome Wa-Griz is by making their tickets suck that much. :lol:

Didn't get my tix, but did get my away game order form today. $30 for Richmond and JMU games. HOLY SHIT! :o

I was thinking about going but it would cost me as much for those two games as all 7 in Newark. :x

Are you fucking kidding me? I would have thought Deleware's were at least close to ours in price. I think I paid close to 4X that much? I'd have to fo look buy I think they were $220-230 and they ain't in the "Prime" area either.

I have a family plan. My tix are dirt cheap. They need to be as I usually only make it to 3 games a year. Regular season tix are the same as yours. HOWEVER, $30 for Richmond and JMU are astronomical. They normally charge more for Delaware games because we bring so many fans (not meant to be conceited, just reality), but I don't ever recall paying that much. I guess they have to pay for their new stadiums somehow. :)

Even the W&M game is no picnic at $25. The only road bargain this year is UMass at $16/head.

Just to clarify, it has nothing to do with how many fans you bring, Delaware usually falls on Family or Homecoming weekend, thus the bump in price (Delaware is Family Weekend this year). UNH is Homecoming and I can guarantee you those tickets were sold at a premium price (on the UNH site, they are $30). Those tickets cost more for our fans, too.

Now about needing it to pay for the stadium...I can't argue. :oops:

I've been to JMU in the first couple weeks of the season, midseason and late in the season, same for W&M and it's always been a bump in price. Maybe it's that JMU always makes the Delaware game HC or FW.

UD was homecoming in '08.

In '06 it was W&M and URI was Family Weekend - the UD game was the only one that I went to that year and didn't pay a premium price. That's one of the reasons I went to it.

In '04 VMI was HC, and I believe UMass was FW

Needless to say, I don't think we go out of our way to make UD FW or HC.

Since I haven't bought single tickets since '06, maybe somebody could fill me in. It looks like UMass's site directs you to our ticket site (nice, by the way). W&M's are $22 - they bring as many fans as Delaware. I can't find any info on Liberty's tickets. What did Liberty people pay?

Also, I can't go that far back in the archives, but the '01, '93, '95 and '97 games were probably HC or FW for where they were on the schedule and the '99 game might've been, but it was a little early in the year.

So I'm confused.... "Delaware usually falls on FW or HC except for when it doesn't." :| ;)

I just know that W&M ALWAYS charges more for the Delaware game. I think several other CAA teams do that too.

FWIW, the only game I can recall Delaware ever charging more for was the DelSt game.

I honestly thought they did until I looked it up. We've always jacked up prices for those two weekends. I don't like it, but they do it. Like you, it's much cheaper for me to buy my family four pack for $200 (plus free concession vouchers) than to even think about going to two or three games a year. So long as that package is reasonable, we'll always buy it even when the kids are in weekend sports that might prohibit our ability to go.

We also required Duke Club membership for ASU tickets a couple of years ago...which I thought was a rip as well.

And, in all fairness, all things being equal, I'm sure our admin. would prefer that UD, Liberty, W&M or UR fell on HC or FW rather than UNH or URI (no offense to those yankees).
