Jesus, you are like an annoying little kid, even though you are Methuselah.
How does any company or entity rebrand itself?
Crap, I am a sidewalk fan. The third year of the new north endzone, I wanted to move down to row 1, since the entire area was practically empty on gamedays, and I wanted to move from 2 season tix to 4 season tix. If the front row wasn't available, just give me the empties next to my current seat. I am a long time season ticket holder (as was my dad and granddad), so I figured, no problem. I call about the front row and am told "I'm sorry, those aren't available" I ask if I can just stay where I am and have the two additional seats next to me since nobody sat there the entire time I have been up there. "No, those aren't available". So, I just stay at two......for about 2-3 hours.
I get called down to a co worker's office. He is on the phone with GT ticket office and is being offered the front row of the section I am sitting in. He is a brand new season ticket holder (Ohio State transplant fan from Columbus, Ohio) that I got turned on to GT football. The section I had just inquired about a few hours earlier. He says "can you tell me the row again?" the GT ticket office says "row 1". I immediately chime in and blast the poor ticket agent for telling me just a few hours earlier that no tickets were available down there and also saying the two next my current seats are not open - even though I know they are not sold. Miraculously, two tix open up on row 1 AND the two seats next to me, which had been unoccupied for two years, suddenly became available. I now have my choice of what I want to do. It is öööö like this that makes me wonder if GT ever wants any sidewalk fans or if we just want to be a cute little school like Vandy or Wake Forest. Dammit, do some damn work to put folks in the seats. It ain't just running a sale on hotdog and coke seats. It is frustrating to have Tennessee trying to get me to buy season tix (I have bought there before) while I hear crickets from GT.
