The AD will do cartwheels if we sell 12K full price season tickets with donations this year. My guess is 8-9K full boat season tickets.

I heard from the ADs mouth that the whole lower bowl was sold at full rate last season. Maybe he lied, but I'll take the man at his word.

From a count I made just before noon there were less than 500 seats offered as available in the lower bowl in total.

Went on ticketmaster site (not resale site) a couple weeks into season. There were center court and probably 1000-1500 seats available for good games. They could NOT have been sold as part of season ticket package and then be for sale on that site.

I was there, did a physical count. All you have is opinion & that has proven wrong much more often that right on this site. Go take your negativity somewhere else.

I think so, too. While this team seems thin for Memphis standards, there's plenty of talent. Tubby has more talent now than he's had in many years prior. If the team buys in, they'll do well.

Tubby won't sell tickets with rousing press conferences, marketing pitches, or community visits. That's not his style, and our fans have grown skeptical of that in reason years. It'll take winning games and exciting basketball to excite the fanbase again.

Watching our team Stay in front of their man, forcing him to shot over them , then blocking him out to get the defensive rebound will excite our fans

Yea, casual fans really get into that.

I see you still miss Joshie poo

I counted the seats available for sale in the lower bowl prior to the start of the seating event last Friday. There were less than 500 seats available for sale in the lower bowl. A number of corporations, new buyers of season tickets & others who improved their seating locations through additional TSF donations were represented in the first 2 hours & purchased many of those 500 seats. My party of family & friends that had seats in several locations around the arena, consolidated, committed to additional seats & upgraded our location, paid the required addition TSF donations & will buy our seats as payment is required. I don't understand your "keep count" comment. There was no need to keep count, as seats were sold, the folders over the seats were removed. I did the count before any seats were sold because I got there early & was surprised at how few seats were being offered. I'm confident the admin wasn't hiding available seats, they want them all sold.

Just one thing you are overlooking-Tiger Club will hold last years season tickets until almost first game even if you don't pay. I know this to be true unless we are in hard sellout situation which we haven't been since 12 or 13. Other factors I won't bore everyone with.

Didn't overlook anything. I counted the available seats & your estimate of 8-9k is way off - even including any club tickets held. But I believe you mis-characterize those tickets too since they are held in individual names & each carries deadlines for TSF donations & ticket purchase. You're just negative about anything to do with Bowen & it has caused you to be negative about the Tigers. Who can say they support the Tigers but spew such negativity about the program?

.

lol. Barking and snapping at each other non stop....



I blame TG4, hernando, bwj, tigerstrong, mammy etc :D

We had decided not to renew after last season. The minute Josh left and Tubby was announced we renewed. Finally . . . great seats with something fun to watch.

From a person on Facebook who is trying to buy FB season tickets posted this AM: " I've been trying to get a hold of the ticket office but apparently they aren't capable of calling an alumni back." Negative?

I'm always amazed how folks having a problem with something choose to take the time to complain on public forums rather than to the persons who can actually address the issue & solve the problem. I have called the university ticket numerous times over a number of years & never failed to get someone on the phone.

You might be the only one. I had to call asst. AD many times to get a simple request accomplished. That ticket office is poorly ran and MOST who have used it over the years will agree.
