2024 Seating Changes

Thirty years of season tickets, 5 seats a season. Doesn’t mean squat
Myself... ~10 years, 4 seats but they have been the 3rd tier (pricing not location) seats and seatbacks... The math is definitely flawed on this process for you and all the long term holders with those priority points and giving.
 
Pretty sure I might be driving up I-95. Can't wait till I tell my wife why I have to exit the freeway for 15 mins.
Have you confirmed this yet? Sounds like it is a possibility now... ;)
 
There is no end time in your “window”.
I'm confused bees, so does the window just mean that's when we get first crack at it exclusively? Then after the window we can just pick at anytime?

Correct, if you log in but take a half hour to pick that's your choice. You could take 3 min or 3 days.

I still feel the need to log in ASAP lol, I cannot help myself.

I think its best to make your pick relatively quickly once your up. Certainly taking more then 5 mins is fine but if your picking in the later groups especially, I wouldn't recommend waiting hours or a day to make a choice because inventory will be moving quickly and seats you may have wanted will now be off the board. I would recommend having 2 or 3 general areas your comfortable with going into the slot so if A and B options are gone you can pivot to C. I expect my current seats to be available to me as I have a fairly good select date but I also have a backup plan in mind if for some reason they're not available.

it means you had 100 + pts though.. That moves you about half way up whatever donor level you were in. moving from 8 to 7 would have jumped 2500+ people

yup.. And all the more reason it would be nice if you could start to see what is happening before your picking window opens. Especially for people with larger groups of tickets they want to keep together.

Another thing is that 20-25K or so will be bought in this process. if you had lower bowl and are not in the first half of this odds go down you will get close to what you had. On the other hand, 3 tickets in the lower bowl jumps you to level 7 and probably inside the top 2000 people. 4+ tickets would have put you a small donation to level and inside the top 1000 people.

I would think the majority of the top half of people are from lower bowl seats or upperdeck inside the 20s and probably looking to repeat that process.

That math seems a tad iffy.

As others said that is correct.

There's likely to be more lower bowl available then you think. I know plenty of people picking relatively early who prefer to sit up top because they like the view better. Now certainly some of the sections are going to go quickly, if your hoping for an aisle seat on the 30 yard half way up in the 1st level and are picking mid June your gonna be SOL. That said if your not overly particular I think you should be able to get a seat in the lower bowl if that's what you really want. Getting a seat next to the tunnel or an aisle seat is probably out if your picking later but the lower bowl itself is gonna have more inventory then you think.

What's unclear at this point if how many people in a section currently want to move within it. That's where the real potential could occur and cause some chaos. If a person in say 127 or 128 who sat in the middle jumps to an aisle seat bumping someone out that can cause a chain reaction that can spill over for weeks. Ditto for someone who is say on the goaline who jumps over to say the 10, those are the real unknowns and why a lot of us donated more to bump up our ranks.
 
Do the dollars and priority points look correct?

I Agree...

My level was 7, but I bumped it to 6 with a 200 dollar donation, honestly it only needed to be 156 as I give to the fund for others.

The issue really is if someone wants to move and it looks like honestly the end zone seats and the 3rd (300 level) are the real issues from a lot of changes. And those are the ones I think have been wronged the most with no recompense.

It use to be that the entry split the levels on the 300 tiers, but now it is from stairs to stairs. For example I was in what is now 336, but a 335/336 previously... Now it is moved over 10 yards between the stairs, and now it is literally cheaper than it was last year... And where I sat before only 8 rows up, is now affordable directly bench level on the edge. I've always had end row seats, so a lot of what has been said plays into all of this for many. For me to sit higher to the middle is really not an option, as I was happy I have the seats I have now. But, that may not be a choice now...

In all I think the real people at a loss are those that sat in the End Zone Areas. To swap them and then have to rechoose seats was wrong. They should have just allowed them to have the same seats on the other side, especially the lower level band/visitor area on the 100 areas.

Yup. anecdotally I’ve heard from a bunch of folks who want to relocate during the process to see the game somewhere else too. Some will go from down to up. May even buy cheaper seats too. So you’re going to have some of that. It all has an impact. Folks should just focus on getting quality seats that fit their needs vs the number of the section. There are very few bad seats in the dome.
 
what part?

How many tickets do we think on avg people have?
How many seats are left in the lower bowl once you remove the student/band areas?
Well I have had 4 tickets and added 6 more for total of 10. My number is 1720 I believe. I have donated through the year to level 6 status.
