Seems they’re more interested in getting more people in than taking more money from the regulars. If so, good.

Prices seem reasonable/fair. Definitely geared toward increasing attendance while also making some more money. Requiring more seats to have a seat donation component should be a good tool to raise our booster count.

Wonder if that’s a product of now knowing right now when our first game there will be. Better to have everyone paying LF prices rather than Protective prices then we end up playing the first couple of games in LF.

As to the more desirable West (the "home side" lol) tickets in the shade, they're sorting that out by charging $200 more for seats there compared to identical seats in the East.

Yeah, but the East side, mid-field seats are $750 per seat less that those on the west side,,which makes them a terrific bargain IMHO.

Glad we can ditch the "home" side "visitor" side and give ourselves a homefield advantage with fans all around the stadium. Pricing looks very fair!

The pricing is smart. It gives them a great tool for selling a lot more season tickets. Fill that baby up and then the walk up crowd starts getting worse seats and maybe some of them spring for seasons as well.

Having been exiled in other stadiums, I like what they did with regard to visiting fan seating.

Really thinking about "swiching sides" to get a better set of seats...

Fortunately, in most cases of our away games, we ( the collective fans ) have often been able to abandon our visiting fan seats and found much better places to sit. I hope that starting next season, that wont be possible for any visiting fans to our new stadium: Lets fill that thing up each week so they have to sit in the worst seats in the place!!!

RE: UAB Unveils Protective Stadium Pricing and Allocation Details
Good seats vs bad seats can depend on game action. One time in Neyland Stadium we were given "bad seats" low in a corner section, but the game developed so that pivotal plays happened right in front of our seats. For that game, we had the best seats in the stadium.
