Renewed: A Community Initiative
This offseason the Canes have been taking to the homes of season ticket holders, visiting families who have been supporting the university for years and thanking them for their support. Duke and his friends have visited many people this year and the reaction has been universally positive and excited.

See article here:

Of note, the university has sold as of last week just under 30,000 season tickets (not including the reserved 10,000 or so for student seating), an increase of 2,500 from this time last year. UM has also sold around 3,000 two-game packs to the UNC/FSU match-ups later this year, indicating an increase in fan support as the NCAA's cloud has lifted off Sun Life Stadium finally.

They can only visit so many homes. Basketball and football players ate Duke call iron Duke members to thank them for their support. I wonder how common that is.

You think any of those extra tickets are FSU fans buying them and not necessarily increased UM fan support?

Probably not much compared to UM fans. FSU fans will usually only buy single-game tickets, considering our season tickets are much out of the trailer park price range 05-stirthepot
