just curious if anyone had the prev season chart that showed prices/donation levels for the various sections? I had it last year and was looking the other day and could not find it. Thanks in advance...need info for planning some changes this year.

It seems like GTAA has tried very hard to keep this info from sticking around on the internet for some reason (hmmm...).

I managed to dig this up -- deep out of the archives. I'm pretty sure that it's from 2016. It probably will be slightly off, but it should be a good baseline. I will update if I am able to find a more recent season's donation levels.

If you made your deposit to reserve your seasons tickets I would think you are good; but you may be paying more for them.
Deposits are for new STH only. I'm not sure why anyone would be displaced from UN unless he's worried about students moving up there from the south endzone (TSan said on his most recent podcast that students will be relocated so they are all in North endzone). I think people in the lower level northeast corner would be the most likely to be displaced.

What does the Tech Terrace have that makes it cost so much despite being in an endzone?

I sat there once. There is an area in the Wardlaw building you can walk into with TVs, catered food, etc. Pretty sweet, actually. I'll stick with my cheapo seats, though.

They also subsidize the feeding of the 3rd quarter roaming band. Or, at least they did when I was there...

Gonna be higher for sure, possibly a lot :scared:
Let's be honest: they can't go too much higher. We have enough problems getting butts in seats as it is. The fanbase is excited about CGC, but not to the point that they can double ticket prices and expect people to show up at the same rate.

I expect a modest increase (~15-20%) over 2018 prices since we have a better home schedule - including an extra game. Probably about in line with 2017 prices when we had UTK at MBS included in the package.

I’d expect a decrease in price this year (relative to past UGA home years). Trying to maximize hype and bring back a lot of the fans that have dropped in the last decade

But hype thrusters are already at 100% power, captain. We don't have the additional power

It would be dumb to raise ticket prices all that much. 10-15% max with the extra game.

Hard to argue the schedule isn't significantly better even in a non Clemson year... Trading Bowling Green for South Florida is a pretty big upgrade along with VPI / UNC / UGA / Pitt / NCST.

They also need to significantly reduce Tech fund
in the upper east.

I'd guess there is some sort of analysis of how many ST's are sold at additional costs vs. more tickets sold at a lower cost to see where GT can maximize ticket revenue. I hope they add into the eqation incidentals like estimated additional food and drink sales along with souvenir sales. IMO, worry about filling the stadium in the near term. Build in the loyalty of the season ticket base. Then aim for maximizing revenues from ticket sales. If some of us, like me, eventually get priced out of our seats, I guess that is just tough luck.

Stansbury wants a lot more butts in the seats as does Collins.

100% agree. Near-term needs to be to maximize capacity and put more butts in seats. Don't get caught up in the weeds of maximizing revenue per seat.
