    Maybe they'd try to split the difference with the donation? Refund the full ticket price, refund half the donation, and say that if you renew your season tickets in 2021 your Team Maker dues will be cut in half (with a guarantee that per seat dues will not increase in 2021). It doesn't cost someone who was planning to keep their season tickets into 2021 anything extra and it incentivizes people to keep their season tickets. It would be a big hit to both the 2020 and 2021 season revenue numbers but they'd be able to shoulder that hit over two seasons instead of one then.

    I didnt ask that question. But you cant charge for services not received.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    Correct. Tickets get you in the games, services received. Teammaker dues are donations. I know, I know. They are required to get the tickets.

    If they cancel the football season, I will gladly let them keep my Teammaker dues. Without those, you'll see massive cuts in the athletic department.

    I will do that. Keep my donation, refund the tickets.
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    Why not just call them and tell them to designate all of it as a donation and keep it all?

    They better keep the damn donation. It's for scholarships for cripes sakes.

    I see both sides. I hope people who arent being hit too hard by this consider letting the school keep the donations.

    I understand those who are cautious... but nothing will change 3 years from now, in my opinion , this thing mutates

    No matter how long we wait some people will still die

    No matter what medicine they have some people will still die

    Any vaccine will be limited to that strain, like the flue shots, and some people will die

    People will drive cars and some people will die

    Some people will eat my ex wives cooking and many people will die

    I am going to live life until I die and that means finally getting some quality seats to my favorite Bizon football games ... and the worst that will “probably” kill me will be the close games

    Good luck everyone
