I'm a few days before that. Guess I'll send a delegate since I'll be out of town

Probably isn't easy to handle thousands of individual 15-minute sessions on weekends only. I suppose you are aware that:

(1) The seat selection session takes place at the athletic office building - not the stadium

(2) If it is inconvenient for you to come to the athletic office, you can opt to let someone you name handle it for you or have them call you at the appointment time and handle it over the phone.

(3) The appointment-time verification card is to be mailed in by March 4.

I noticed that the card says "return to Tiger Scholarship Fund/570 Normal St" but the envelope provided is addressed to "Athletics Development/260 Athletic Office Bldg". I don't suppose it matters, but such things confuse and bug me.

(1) Both addresses are the Athletic Office Building.'

(2) If it is too confusing for you, you can opt to let someone you name handle it for you

(3) The appointment-time verification card is to be emailed in by March 4

I'll be out of town for mine too... I read in the mailer that I can also select over the phone at that time. That's what I'm planning on doing.

Feels wrong after supporting a mostly poor product all these years. There should be a grandfather clause. I'm quite sure they don't care.

Clearly nobody is dying to have my seats. So my section will be pretty empty I'm guessing. Or will be first come first serve for folks moving down. I know none of my neighbors are going to accept that kind of hike. And neither are we.

I will be happy to pay more for seats with chairbacks. I will just put my name on the waiting list to take the best available that you folks reject. I'm sure that they will have a priority set up for me to buy some if others turn this down.

I'm a couple of hours later than you on the 17th.

I hope that they've made an announcement on Pastner by then....if not, I'll be holding back on buying chairbacks to see whether or not we're keeping our bball seats.

Got my 2nd letter in the mail today, haven't checked email yet.

None of you sumbishes better steal my seats! i don't care if they are going to go up 400%, I still want them, chairback and all.

I'd pay more, just not that much more. I'm not crazy about the chairbacks we have in the stadium now. Not that comfy.

Dude, just buy some good stadium seats. Chairbacks aren't that glorious. Trust me, sec 122 will have PLENTY of seats available.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe Chairback$ make people drool enough to pay $200 more for them. If so, well played UofM...
