I finally go the call......
So, after trying since about 2012 (whenever it was tickets got scarce), I am officially an NDSU Football Season Ticket Holder. When you try for something that long, man is it gratifying. I can't help but wonder how much the pandemic helped me out? (Man, is that warped.....not a big fan of the pandemic FWIW.) Mr. Lang called me as I was walking out of work yesterday. Best part of the conversation was talking to him about 3rd and 11 in the Little Apple....
So, any suggestions how I should celebrate?

Re: I finally go the call......
Congratulations! Still waiting on my call. I usually get the no in mid June when I'm spraying. Must have way less points.

Clearly, there is institutional bias versus those from Rolla. Too bad you don't have Rolette privilege.

Re: I finally go the call......
The extra student tickets that they gave up... and maybe a little uncertainly about the season with the virus. But congrats

Re: I finally go the call......
Don't forget about businesses and individuals who have a serious drop in income and maybe can't justify donating enough money for the good seats. :( I know one retired couple who have been season ticket holders since the 1980s who were seriously considering giving up their tickets the last time I talked to them.

Re: I finally go the call......
I got the call and missed it! Thanks to Derrick Lang with Team Makers for shooting me a text too. Hopefully I'll get a call back in the morning. Been trying since 2012 as well I believe.

Re: I finally go the call......
I got one added to my end zone ticket the other day. Now the family doesn't have to draw straws on who gets to go!!

Yahoo !!! Got the call from Derrick Lang yesterday; you, TSCF, and I were wanting season tickets for a long time. With the two I get from CAS, I got enough for the fam.

Yeah, I have to agree with Chapo.....you don't want to miss Trey's likely last season. If he puts together a solid season, which is likely since NDSU is FCS, he is gone. Just saw an SI article on him today.....

TSCF and southcliff, was your availability in the new ones above the student section? I'm supposed to get a call back this afternoon. Just curious.

They had a few options for me, and sounded like I could have gotten whatever if money grew on trees. As far as 3rd tier price points go, above the students sounded best to me.

Ditto that; Section 15; row CC ; above the students, on the 20 yd line ……… I'm happy.

Due ticket dues count toward ongoing priority point accumulation?

The seating requirements count towards points. The cost of the tickets do not.

Re: I finally go the call......
Are you serious? There is one guy who makes phone calls to give you the opportunity to buy season tickets! And you all panic if you miss the call.
Surely there is a way to do this online in a day or two.

Well, I live in Sioux Falls; too far for a helmet car to drive.

There is also a 1 point bonus for each consecutive years tickets are held if memory serves. Which always has driven me crazy as there was no way for me to accumulate those points as i was not going to buy bball season tickets living in Sioux Falls! :)

I get one point per year for my Teammaker membership. Also one point per year for football, men's basketball, women's basketball and volleyball. These single points only add up as long as you have them in consecutive years (going back to 1993). The big points are in the one point per $50 to Teammakers.

But if you happen to discontinue your volleball tickets--lets say--all the points you accumulated for having those tickets go away.

Same with points for consecutive years of being a team maker. It's a loyalty bonus not an entitlement.

Re: I finally go the call......
So, those that got tickets, how many points did you have or what was your ranking? I didn't put in, just went with single game tickets, but I'm curious about what might have been.

In my case, I have 148 priority pts (don't know if this has been updated or not) and a ranking of 1317 (whatever the hell that means); the shitz about all this is I darn near didn't put in for season tickets because I was tired of getting those rejection letters. You never know unless you try.

Re: I finally go the call......
I haven't checked lately but I think I was 1500 range? They probably are getting most on the so called waiting list crossed off I'm guessing.

I think they'll take care of the entire waiting list this offseason. This past spring they extended the deadline to put in new season ticket requests and dropped the 12 ticket per account limit on existing season ticket holders. I don't think they do that unless they knew that season ticket supply was going to exceed demand.

I didn’t know they dropped the 12 ticket per account limit.

That makes sense. I have 55.6 priority points and my ranking is 1710 so I am sure I was way down the list.
