Beamer Ball on sale at Costco

Excitement in Columbia must be at a fever pitch, $80 includes a pair of tickets and $20 credit for concessions. Every game eligible for this deal except for LSU.

This is common for most P4 teams now.

I see what you did there.

Didn't they do the same in 2022?

I seem to recall them doing this before the season that year when we were in their schedule.

Judging by what happened that night, kind of glad I did not make a trip to Costco. (Somewhat of a joke as I was coming off knee surgery and could not attend any games at the time)

Either way, this looks to be the last season of Baby Beamer in Columbia. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

They did, and of course it seemed like a great deal for Vol fans, until they whooped us. $80 to watch the vols get killed.

Strangely enough that was also including all-you-can-eat concessions of some sort, which is hard to believe. I did not go so I'm not sure how that actually panned out.

There's about 8 or 9 schools doing it on Costco so not sure it's common.

Seems a little bush league to me. I can’t imagine buying Neyland tickets at a discount warehouse.

Haven't we done this before?

Pretty sure we have done this or similar before in the dark days.

If you have a stadium that seats 90k and only 70k are gonna buy tix through conventional means, anything you can get for that extra 20k seats is better than nothing isn't it? Even if they clear $5/ticket that's an extra $100k they didn't have before

I don't like it either, but did you go to the late season games in 2017? Announced attendance was like 85k and 95k for another but the stadium was half empty. Hate to see how we would have drawn in 2020 if fan attendance was not basically verboten because of covid. South Carolina is not gonna be much better this year than we were in those seasons.
