I know and, while you don't like it, that's a good thing. It means more people are giving to the AT Fund and getting points, which jumps them over you. That's what's pushing you to lesser seating. I've dropped 15-20 spots in the points order since J Batt started fundraising too. I stopped giving during the Todd era and haven't started up again.

Not necessarily. I have dealt with the GT ticketing öööö show for decades.

At one point, a decade or so ago, I wanted to move my two tix to row 1 of the UN or increase my purchase to 4 tix because nobody was ever in the seats next to me, except gaggers every other year. I found out nobody owned them.

I was told there is nothing available, including the two next to me. A work buddy of mine, Tech fan, non grad, non donor, calls the SAME DAY and got season Tix row 1 in the same section. I called GT and raised hell. Suddenly, there were front row Tix available AND the two next to me were available.
I bought the two additional and have owned four ST's, up from two I had before, and have been buying 4 over a decade now.
I have talked to various Tech personnel for years about why they seem to intentionally make it more difficult and more unpleasant to be a GT fan.

Yes, I'm old. Just let me buy tix and mail them to me with my parking passes. I hate this "install the Peach Bowl Aflac Kickoff app" and all the damn downloading and BS.
 
Back in the 80s, there was the joke that old people couldn't figure out how to program the VCR to record a TV show. That was nothing compared to managing all the apps and passwords that have taken over daily life. There will come a day, not so far off, that I just walk away from anything that requires new technology or a long phone call with customer service.
 
My buddy who is really uga & ND fan had Tech season tickets 2 yrs ago, but did not reup last year. He received a call from one of the ticket sellers asking if he was interested in season tix this season, he said no and the seller said they had a 3 game pkg available. My friend told the seller that he just had ankle surgery ( which he had ) and asked if he had any uga/Tech game tickets available that he would buy 4. Seller said let him check and told my friend that he had 3 available in section 104 lower east. He bought them and is now set for really the only game he wanted to see!! Who in the hell is running the show down there??

Exactly what I think as I am installing an app that HAS to be installed if I want to go to a game and that I HAVE to download the tickets to my Google Wallet because, despite them being on the app, the app is likely to get overwhelmed on GameDay meaning I can't get my tickets unless they are in my Google Wallet.

Just makes me want to say "öööö it. This isn't the Georgia Tech football, or even college football, I grew up watching and listening to"

Until I got the two additional next to me, the seats were empty except every other season when Gaggers would show up. I originally bought them just because of that, but GT was very difficult to deal with getting them.

Nope. I have the following on my phone...
Asking Alexandria/ the Hu

Dead Poets Society
Death from above 1979
It annoys me I have to download any of them AND get charged for the "convenience"

Ticketmaster is the spawn of satan.

So I bought some tix from Stubhub for L’ville and would sooner choose to drop a case of soap in the shower of Black Dolphin prison over the unspeakable, no I won’t show you on a stupid doll, horrors that StubHub performed on my digital bits.

So the wounds from the digital perversion by StubHub were just about healed when I got an email from Stubhub to claim my digital tickets. WooHoo - where my tickets at? But like any fool who clicks that link, I was routed to a digital nightmare of pain and torment hosted by none other than tickmaster to download them after installing, agreeing, selling out the entire StinGTalk membership.

Yes it is. Ticketmaster made sure to charge me a fee for the convenience of me having to download the tickets to my phone
