A new and better FBS thread

We all know most bowl games suck and vacuum money.

Snake oil salesman still peddling the same old shit.

At least those that will be there want to be there.

Indy’s point on ticket price has wheels, especially with how well our economy is doing with inflation at an all time low and home goods almost being given away.

One thing I remember reading is a lot of season ticket holders were companies that bought 20-30 tickets. I heard several of them stopped buying that many or at all. Is it possible a lot of those 18k were people attending with free tickets. Now that those aren't available, those fans are no longer attending. I have no idea how much this is impacting attendance. I also wonder if they've priced themselves a little high. Supply and demand drove the price up, it may have gone beyond the optimal price. The supply didn't change, but it may have driven down demand. Any econ majors out there?

Interesting point.

It's cheap for students, but it's roughly $200 for a family of 4 to attend this game.
And it's just one game. Maybe some folks are saving up for Frisco. That's expensive too.

IMO, there’s a fine line here. I know many people who, rather than go to game, have “watch parties” at their homes with 10-20 people who would otherwise/more than likely go to the game but for TV availability. We don’t have a big enough fan base to sustain both easy-access tv coverage and fill the Dome. Just not there.

I'll be at the Las Vegas Bowl with 25,000 NDSU fans.

This has some truth. We still have 16 great seats that are hard to give away some weeks. I do believe the average family has been priced out of season tickets and it's an expensive day just to go to one game.

I also know people who cancelled their season tickets and have not returned to the Dome after Trey et al took a knee during the anthem and received support from the coaches in doing so. Some of you will say that wasn't that big of deal, but I can assure you that it still is.
