I saw a request for extra tickets yesterday. The sale starts on Monday.I keep waiting for them to show up in my account.
in year’s past, additional tickets to the BJC matches were offered. I haven’t received any emails about this - or have I just missed them in my junk/spam folder?
Franklin's next employer is going to be offsetting his PSU contract. We may not owe him anything after this year.Additional tickets for the Oklahoma match are $112.70 each? And the seats are far from desirable? I guess all of the athletic sports will be paying for Franklin’s buyout.
Rev share $ will keep going up and no athletic department has the extra 20 million laying around. So it's being generated by donations and ticket $Franklin's next employer is going to be offsetting his PSU contract. We may not owe him anything after this year.
WTF does that have to due with the money PSU owes James Franklin?Rev share $ will keep going up and no athletic department has the extra 20 million laying around. So it's being generated by donations and ticket $
Wrong thread I didn't mention Franklin here. They may or may not owe him. Why did you think ticket prices are $113 for the dual?WTF does that have to due with the money PSU owes James Franklin?
Because people will pay it. Market rate.Wrong thread I didn't mention Franklin here. They may or may not owe him. Why did you think ticket prices are $113 for the dual?
What were the prices last year ?Because people will pay it. Market rate.
Last year, $36.38. This year, $112.70. More than tripled in price.What were the prices last year ?
And rev share wasn't a thing last year it's definitely a factor. It's definitely not because they won again they didn't go up like that after the first 11 TitlesLast year, $36.38. This year, $112.70. More than tripled in price.
Most BJC matches were sellouts or close to it (16,000). I’ll be surprised if they sell 8-9,000 at these prices. Tickets, parking, gas, couple of hot dogs and Gatorades…..it will cost $300 for a dad to take his kid to the match. This is not the way to grow the sport.And rev share wasn't a thing last year it's definitely a factor. It's definitely not because they won again they didn't go up like that after the first 11 Titles
The prices will be what the market decides. Selling 8 or 9K at those prices- I think you are low - still generates a lot more revenue than selling them undervalued. More likely they are going to sell 10k+ which will generate double the revenue.Most BJC matches were sellouts or close to it (16,000). I’ll be surprised if they sell 8-9,000 at these prices.

I have three kids that love wrestling and we try and hit a match at the BJC every year. So it will be nearly $500 to just walk in the door. Unfortunately it will not be happening this year.Most BJC matches were sellouts or close to it (16,000). I’ll be surprised if they sell 8-9,000 at these prices.

Better a couple kids get to see a match than most of the people who sitThe prices will be what the market decides.

This has nothing to do with growing the sport. The sport is one of the oldest sanctioned by the NCAA. Why do you think you are all of the sudden going to grow it in 2025 at the NCAA level?
BTW, the football team has raised prices way over 300 percent in the last decade. Are we killing interest in football? I didn’t think so.
PSU should generate as much revenue that they can. That is the best way to keep the program strong.
Alternatively, we can keep tickets at $10 so a couple extra kids that already are wrestling in their youth programs can come to watch the matches with their dads for the last few years the university sponsors wrestling before dropping it.
Since you are on a fixed income you should be happy that you can see the entire PSU wrestling schedule by subscribing to B1G+ and FLO. For less than a pair of tickets to the Oklahoma match and you can make your own popcorn. Plus you get to see a lot more great wrestling than just PSU and you can invite your wrestling grandchildren over for some quality time.Better a couple kids get to see a match than most of the people who sit

That is the future of growing wrestling. More content available to view. It may not be palatable to a certain generation, to which I belong, but that is the future.
