2026 Football Season Ticket Renewal

[Irishsecra1]

Am I the only one who was shocked, and frankly offended, to receive an email today telling me that I can now renew my 2026 football season tickets?
And a line telling me that there will be an across the board price increase for the 2026 football season.

Our team is seriously awful right now, tomorrows game will definitely have a much smaller number of fans than expected yet this email went out today.

Timing is everything and this is really bad timing!

Prices went up too. Assuming we have 7 games it is the same price on a per game basis for me.

 

[JeffCuse]

It is. That said sort of stoked you can keep your same parking spot now

 

[richmondcuse03]

you can't control how the team is playing. these things go out when they have to. The team was 3-1 before we lost our QB. if it was 5-2, there'd be no complaints.

seems like a welcome positive change.

2026 season ticket prices.

 

[llandz]

I've sold tickets to 3 games that I have not attended and already recouped my cost of just the ticket price this season. I have recouped 3 years in a row now. Actually may even get the full amount with the donation portion. I did last year. And I went to 2 games. I renewed. I have high expectations for next season. In my mid 70s and live in AZ, 2026 may be my final season to travel back and maybe get tickets.

2024 vs 2026

A $125 more
B $125
C $75
D $50
E $100
$25
G $25
H $51

What did the people in E do to anger the ticket office?

Also the upper decks are still out of whack. You have one row at $700 and the next at $475 in the middle sections, while the other sidelines are $475 vs $225.

With those increases, they will see a huge drop in season ticket holders. I don’t care if Notre Dame is coming to the Dome. It’s over 20% increase. They didn’t lower ticket prices when we played one fewer game.

Did you see the home schedule next year?

This team will be competing to get into the playoffs next year.

Not if their quarterback gets hurt.

Same thing this year - E got the shaft for some reason so I moved myself up a few rows in the section to .

These prices are still very reasonable for a P4 program.

I assume much of the "donation" portion of these prices helps offset the revenue sharing responsibilities of the athletic department. It's ironic how many people want our programs to be competitive on a national level but complain when it's time to pony up.

You do you but being committed to supporting the program you say you love in good times and bad is part of being a supportive fan and not just a good weather fan.

Home games against Notre Dame, Clemson, SMU, Louisville, Cal. Pretty good.

Looks like I've been Otto Pay auto renewed for November 15, but probably need to read that closer.

 

[cusefan88]

Clemson, Notre Dame, and Louisville visiting. Loaded schedule. Not to mention Cal could be a strong team too.

If you have some extra tickets I might interested. I would love to take my son to his first game. He is 7

Do we know for sure that the 9 game ACC won't change things around?

How long will the thread on the forum be when they announce that the Notre Dame game is at Yankee Stadium?*

You probably opted in during the last renewal cycle.

Believe D went up $25.00, they were $375.00

 

[HRE Otto IV]

I was comparing 2024 and 2026 since they both have 7 games. Technically D level seats went down on a per game basis from 2025 to 2026 but are still up 14% over the two years.

My seats went from $82/g to $100/g to $100/g, but up $125 total 2024 to 2026 (21.7%).

 

[Irishsecra1]

What I am complaining about is the timing of the thing.

Seriously, why not wait till the end of the season before sending this off.

I have been a season ticket holder since 1995 so I will renew but not right now.
It just leaves a bad taste with how bad we are doing that we get this kind of email asking you to renew and saying hey prices will increase too.

And I am far from a fair weather fan. I endured some pretty horrific years with GRob and Shafer.

But that is just how I feel.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Not if their quarterback gets hurt.

"Otto Pay" is the new starter.

 

[upperdeck]

Interesting that the parking is auto renewal as well. Must be they are done removing spots. Spreading it out over 10 months wont feel much pain.

and you don't have to do it now. You have until Feb. Just a matter how much you want to spread out the costs.

Not sure how they do the parking upgrade until they know if someone is actually cancelling though. Given the annual turnover say 10%. I wonder how many parking spots would actually get turned over.

I mean I start paying in nov and ask for a parking upgrade that cant actually happen until March and then decide if I dont get an upgrade I want to cancel my tickets. I guess you get a full refund?

I didnt see the parking upgrade thing. Must be a default of the Otto pay?

For those not offended by the timing, they are allowing them to pay in 10 monthly payments, interest free.

It's interest free for them too though. Tickets in general don't have to be purchased until the event starts; February is an arbitrary day they get to pick to maximize revenue.
