RE: This is what you will see at Cardinal Stadium
That’s a good question Mark.
They are being pretty tight lipped about season ticket sales.
I told someone last week that when they called me in the spring the first thing they asked is “are you going to renew?” At the time I thought that’s a crazy thing to ask someone who has been a season ticket holder since the mid 80’s.
I do know they are doing some creative mini-packages and offering season ticket sales directly to the public which tells me the waiting list has been satisfied.
To answer your question, I would be surprised if we sell out season tickets this year. I might be surprised but I doubt it. The BOT pissed off a bunch of fans since last year. Might protest by not buying tickets.

Have not heard yet. I do know several people that are buying first time or adding more seats.

Mark, the North End addition is 5,179 seats (not the 10,000 long advertised). About half of the 5,179 are Club and Field Suite seats. Those are sold out.
I would guess that 'most' of the new seats will be sold this year. It's a pretty decent home schedule with Florida State, Georgia Tech, Kentucky and Western Kentucky to attract interest, with additional ACC matchups against Wake Forest and NC State, both of whom seem to be becoming 'rivalry-type' interests.

I expect (really hope due to the date not being released yet) to get to Louisville for another game in '19. Personally the Cuse-Louisville rivalry is a good one. I think the Orange have a good shot to beat Louisville in the Dome this Fall. It would make the game in '19 that much more fun.

I know that you know some of the other guys here but you are welcome to my tailgate and suite in '19. I think I've been to the Dome 6 or 7 times. I think the Orange have a good chance for a win this season. Cards play Cuse just 6 days after playing Tigers. Senior Day for Cuse. Big Friday Night National Game.
