2018 Season Tickets

[bisonaudit]

100%

I don't think I explained what I was trying to say well enough. Basically, non-TMs and young Team makers get 'tricked' in a way into thinking if they go online and donate $100 in November, they will be presented the opportunity to buy Frisco tickets. Which we all know, is not the case.

If you can’t get a Frisco ticket without making a teammakers donation, you aren’t doing it right.

If you want a Frisco ticket, do it early, like in September..... yeah, yeah, I know. Have some faith, Moriarty, have some faith .........

Here's the list of TM members: http://ndsuathleticfund.com/team-makers/member-listing/

Far from a "Good Ol' Boys" club. At the top are mainly businesses. The first individual is a woman. The first former athlete at the top I could recognize is Chad Stark (along with his wife), and he's in the third group.

Now with that said, is it fair if these individuals and companies receive preferential treatment over lower TMs? 100% without a doubt, "YES!" These individuals/companies are a major reason why NDSU is where they are today. With as much as I have donated to TMs and other funds for NDSU over the past five years, it's chump change (around $2,000) compared to their donations. When it comes to getting tickets to the FBS games or the NCAA Championship Game, these are the people that must be served first.

The problem with that list is it doesn't include the full amount of a lot of donations. Bison Pride dollars aren't included when they list your level. Kinda makes a lot of people look cheap when in fact they may be fairly large donors. Beats me why they don't include everything since it all goes into the same pot anyway

So its perception. Ok
The other question is who are they protecting?

Are you fing with me?

those perceived to run or be at the top of the club so they can stay on top.

To the other question would you support it?

You may want to contact them and ask why. In the past if the donations went towards brick and mortar it didnt get included in the donation level but you still got PPs. I thought they were going to change that. If thats the case tell them you wont donate to that fund anymore.

I didn't donate to the Pride fund this year. Everything went to a TM membership. I had understood it would be changed for last year too but wasn't.

The trick from now on with be to only donate to TM what your seats cost you as that will no longer be deductible. If you are donating over that amount then put it towards the other funds as they will still be deductible.

Nope.

Your an enigma. You know people think that so did you just want to trigger or what. I dont get it. Ok I am over it....I lost interest. say
I am curious tho. What about the question, if giving 25 points to alum for every degree earned at ndsu would drive higher revenue would you support it?

Side note....I agree it's not as ridiculous now, but it has not always been so. 10 years ago two of us tried everything we could to get involved and were ignored at every turn. I am not saying its that way today but reputations are sometimes hard to shake

Huh? Any TM donation above the seat dues is still deductible, No?
