Isn't the price gouging penalizing the people who have been there? Season ticket holders, yes, but there are plenty of people who have supported the team through its tough times that attended many games that did not purchase season tickets. I have no issues at all with them offering them to the season ticket holders first, I just have issues with the "brokers" that swoop in and sell to the highest bidder, likely shutting out some legit good fans who were unable to get through to buy them.Season tickets for baseball is usually super cheap and if these people had season tickets than they would have been guaranteed tickets for the super regional….. The majority of the fans complaining about this haven’t been there during the building of this program. If you aren’t there during the hard times then you don’t deserve to be there during the good imo.
As for the water issue…… during the 90’s, fans were passing out during the UCLA game….. The university wouldn’t give fans ice/water without charging them full price for a soda. I remember people were pissed at Dickey over that.
I spent 2 and 1/2 hours in a soaking rain in a ditch and woods on the side of a country road trying to undo the misery that soulless demons put on these helpless creatures. Was only able to rescue 3 of 4. Back out tomorrow morning to try again for #4.
May God have mercy on the people that did this, as I would struggle to do so myself.
How many games the last few years have you attended on saturdays and sundays? I want more fans too but that stadium will be slammed this weekend.I think Tony Vitelli would like to add more fans.Some people have to work and can’t go to half the games.I work nights and that knocks me out of midweek games and Friday games.
Also worth mentioning last season was his first season starting qb, and its in the toughest division of hs football in Michigan fb, he is definitely good enough to start here day one, and I think he probably will because whoever starts this season will be gone after the 2022 season5 star ‘23 QB Dante Moore was on campus for a visit yesterday, he is the #14 player in the country and #3 qb, .9926 on 247 composite and would be out highest ranked qb ever if we got him
100% in agreementComes down to degrees. Profit is good, but using misery to make a buck gets dodgy fast. It's fine for someone to buy water and sell it. It's not fine to back a semi up to Wal-Mart and buy up all of the water while people are busy boarding up their houses. I have zero problem with people selling their tickets for a profit. I have a big problem with professional scalpers using rooms full of servers running buying bots to snatch up all of the supply. And again, this comes from a lifelong entrepreneur. I've just learned that free markets and profit are never a justification for losing basic decency.
So you already have him starting and he is not even committed or signed. If HB has a strong year then this kid wont be day 1 starter here.Also worth mentioning last season was his first season starting qb, and its in the toughest division of hs football in Michigan fb, he is definitely good enough to start here day one, and I think he probably will because whoever starts this season will be gone after the 2022 season
I argue we need to get away from the Corporate cronyism capitalism and back to a truer form of free market entrepreneur capitalism. Where the difference occurs is your legal structure through regulation that benefit one group over another. This is a big mess however and won’t fix easily. I’m a prominent of Thomas Jefferson’s maxim that Government has no right to take from the mouths of people the sustenance they produced by their hands.100% in agreement
I think our beef is lack of an app or web based way to order tickets. Did you fax in your info for season tickets?
I’ve never understood idiots thinking it’s okay to “stomp” on someone’s head lol. Doesn’t take a lot to fracture a skull when it is pressed against something hard…. Think watermelon against concrete….Did you read why?? Lmaooooo
dude was getting blowies from a IT and found out it was a dude
