Kugler ball has not inspired the sale of a lot of tickets. The highest at UTEP was back in the Price coaching era with over 24k.

2012..... 14,126
2013..... 13,332
2014..... 13,167

Not the trend you want to see. If the Miners don't start winning a few more than they lose, sales will only go down.

USM is usually the leader in season ticket sales with Marshall, ODU and UTSA doing well too.

Utep could start by offering the traditional family package to non traditional families. In today's society, not all families consist of Mom and Pop, son and daughter. It could be argued that their family package is discrimination against non traditional families.

Once again Utep is behind the times and we suffer because of it.

Family packs are usually just crappy seats they can't sell at a premium. I don't think they actually care if it's 4 friends or 4 sisters or whatever, do they? Who's checking to make sure only a traditional family is sitting in those seats? It's a section of the stadium at Marshall, the endzone corners. Not awful seats, but they aren't getting $35 a game for those so they offer a family deal on them. Pretty sure they don't care about the composition of the people that choose to purchase and use them.

I agree. No one is going to check at the time of purchase or at the time of entry into the stadium.
