Tunnel Club. $10,000/yr for access to a bar from where you can watch the team run onto the field from behind the scenes. Because….?


For me, the excitement is seeing them COME OUT of the tunnel and onto the field to the roar of the fans.

Yeah, we did this in 2021. The 2001 Club. Seems to be the trend.
Oh, I was unaware we had such a thing. Kind of makes me sad. I was hoping we were not that stupid.

do we still have it? Can’t find any information on such a thing online.

Oh, well at least ours is only $2 grand. Still $2,000 too much for such a silly feature but not as moronic as $10k.

This is definitely a trend. Mercedes Benz in Atlanta has it, and it's very cool. Anything that gets fans closer to the action. And there's always enough people that are willing to pay for the experience (though it's usually people using company tickets to entertain clients). Write offs are the lifeblood of entertainment.

For me, a big part of the college football experience is being out in the stands when the band/music kicks in and everyone’s going crazy and the team runs out on the field. Particularly with 2001, it’s such an experience. There’s a reason fans debate about which team has the best entrance. It’s a signature part of college football. I wouldn’t personally trade that to see the behind the scenes. TV cameras usually show players standing inside the tunnel anyway. But I can see where some might want to do it.

You can see the field from the 2001 club though right? It doesn't seem like you can even see the field from the Penn State tunnel club.

Hey Ray, How about allowing a Gamecock Club member to do the coin flip before each home game.

Maybe a fee of $2500 plus another $1000 to obtain the flipped coin plus another $1,000 for the official autographed Gamecock jersey you are required your wear while flipping the coin.

There's an open air terrace with a field view, but I'm pretty sure that's extra $$.

From a place that sold their soul for College Football. Some people call that a cult. I never could understand why the year after the whole story Broke and it was determined Paterno had prior knowledge and did NOTHING, why a 4 star athlete could in good conscience hold their hand up and say yes please, I would love to play for this team, at this place. Yes, I am bias against this U. I was on the Campus two years ago and kinda just hated it.

That way before all the home games- the players get to look over and see who ‘the who’s who’ of Penn State is… awkward!
