Wow. Admittedly stunned. Does this count the student allotment?
FC: Number of Penn State season ticket holders….
- Thread starter Midnighter
- Start date
I must include students. Otherwise it would be that number plus about 20,000 students for a total of 111,754. So it really means we have about 16,000 singles to sell for every home game.
It certainly would goose the numbers if a partial pass was considered to be a "season ticket".
It would also be sort of misleading to say there are 91,000 season ticket HOLDERS. My wife doesn't give a crap about the extra ticket, so I am actually a holder of 2. I'm sure there are some season ticket holders who hold 10 or more.
And yet Texas generates $50mm or more in football revenue than PSU does. Stop with the dick-size comparisons and focus on things constructive.
Number of season tickets. Many with season tickets have more than one.
So PSU is a “show-er” and Texas is a “grow-er” in this case?
How is this possible? Are you not including TV money? Texas makes $4M more per game than PSU does? (Note my slight edit.)
Seriously? It's not misleading, season tickets and season ticket holders are used interchangeably by every team.Yep. family friend has 10. They sold some land to PSU 50+ years ago and initially got them as part of the deal. They do pay for them now and are awesome seat with the players families but they never use all 10.
Would be nice to know the breakdown (as well as whether we’re comparing apples to apples with Texas).
The NLC membership is around 22,500 +/-
possibly average out to 3 tickets per member ~ 67,000 tickets + 20,000 student tickets
Actually, it's $56mm (hence the unedited "or more"). Includes revenue from all sources.
How is it possible? Dunno. Ask Kraft when he takes a break from his johnson stretching exercises.
Well, Texas in particular gets paid directly from ESPN for the Longhorn Network. That accounts for about $15M a year.
Possibly, but I'd be surprised if UT allocates the full amount to the football program. Wouldn't surprise me that the amount is split between the athletic department and the University.
