Had mine today. With the schedule this season, I was surprised at the number of quality seats up for grabs when the seat selections first began. But, as always by the time my appt. came up, the selection was starting to get a little thin. I ended up with basically what I had last season but I always like to make an appointment so I can take a gander at what all is available. I hope they continue to let us select seats this way in the years to come.

When I had season tickets, I went from upper deck to the lower section without even knowing it.  I got my tickets and I was pleasantly surprised.

HogtoberFest

Had mine yesterday as well.  Lots were still available in the South Outdoor Club. I was finally able to move my 4 tickets together.

I guess it was the price hike, but it worked out very well for me.

Just finished mine. Was able to move 2 sections over and a row down in east Outdoor Club and very happy about it.

BTW- got 35 yard line row 17 seats right next to an exit in WMS. Guess nobody is renewing seats there due to the impending end, but I'll enjoy those seats for a couple of years anyway.

Go Hogs.

Just had mine. Wife rejected the Lazy Boy proposal for eighth consecutive year. Does not fit the "fung shui" of the den. I didn't know bottom dollar furniture from Ikea could have fung shui. I still upgraded from a 10 year old LG 33 in HD to a 55 inch 4K Samsung this offseason.

those seats u have in RRS, those are my faves probably. Outside and worth their weight in silver on a rainy day! They definitely need to do something about those ghetto-ass 2004 flatscreens though.

Why do you think it's costing $160m for the expansion and upgrades......new flat screen TV'S.

i need to be the middleman on that deal. they are cheap as darn now-a-days. Those 40" they have up are worth like 200 a piece. So, 5000 of them would be 1 million. we only need a fraction of that. What's the other 159,000,000 going on?

I am in the Big Hog donor level, and have been in the 107 section for few years now.  I am thinking of changing sections this year, but I want to stay in the 100 section.  Is there a preferred section for this level?

According to this year's seating prioritization chart-  you can move to 101, 112* (minimum $200 seat value), 118,119, 127, 128, 504, 514 and Pig Heaven (509-512 and 516-519) or you can stay/move within 107.

We're used to having to eat them dry in the upperdeck. We're just grateful when we get them along with ice in our Pepsi.

Yeah it don't mix too well with the rum or whiskey we sneak past the guards at the gate though. You fellas have bartenders or scantily clad waitresses come to your seats with the good stuff huh ?

Just bought my first season tix. Hard to find 5 together so I bit the bullet.
Found 5 together in 203 Outdoor club. We have sat in that area before and liked it.
Too bad they'll only be there for a couple more years - apparently they'll be phased out in the 2018 renovation.
Will enjoy them until then!

I had mine this afternoon. I was looking to improve my seating in the South Indoor Club. I wound up keeping them where they are, because I enjoy aisle seats and I know we like where we are. I was actually encouraged that, despite the price increase, there very few seats available. The process was pretty seamless, too.

I envy any season ticket holders. It is a life goal of mine to become and maintain being a season ticket holder. I wish every season that I had been smarter with my money in my early 20's so that I may already be there. Now in my late 20's I can see it becoming reality in 3-5 years. Wife, daughter, and daughter on the way combined with the purchase of our first home a few months ago obviously took priority. I do not care if I am sitting in a backwards facing chair above the smelliest bathroom next, as long as I am there. Until then I will just purchase single game when I can afford it. Be grateful you guys and see you soon!

Season ticket holder. What a goal for life.

Being financially secure enough to donate thousands of dollars a year to the University of Arkansas and able to attend the home games of the team I grew up watching and cheering for. I would say so.

Healthy wife with two children and a home. I think you are doing pretty well my friend.

Yet I do understand the season ticket holder. Heck I'm too far away for even single games, so you got me beat.  ;)

Dumb question for a first time season ticket holder here.  I am scheduled for an appointment today later this afternoon, but when I go to http://www.razorbackfoundation.com/seating-and-parking/razorbackseats3d.aspx  there is no place to sign in and no reference to what site that the user goes to on the youtube video.  I feel like I'm obviously missing a step in this whole process. The mailed stub the foundation sent out directed the user go to razorbackfoundation.com.   Any help I can get on this would be great.

For me, it was a "goal." Not the goal, but one I wanted.

My father was retired military and my mom a nurse. We had all we needed and some of what we wanted, but Razorback tickets were not a luxury we could afford.

My brother-in-law, a doctor, could. On December 6, 1975, we played Texas A&M in WMS and upset th Aggies 31-6. I had to watch on television at my house, but my sister and brother-in-law were there...where I wanted to be.

They went to all regular season home games and usually the bowl game. He started taking me to Hog games a couple of years later, and every game day ended the same way - at Steak & Ale on Cantrell, eating prime rib.

That's what I wanted to be able to do. When I began law school, I used student loan money to make my first contribution to the Razorback Foundation and buy my first season tickets - 31 years ago.

Watch it on television instead? No. Not if it was the largest screen made and if someone delivered $1,000 worth of steaks and beer to my door on game day.

Decided against the upgrade.  Not sure how many games I will make with all of the business travel I do.  At least I will have Memphis.

nationwish

I somehow didn't get an appointment to upgrade this year. I guess I could have checked the wrong box, but I noticed someone else tweeted Jeff Long that they didn't get an appointment either. That makes me wonder if they were the ones who made the mistake.

BRHogfan

I haven't heard anything about it.  I actually had my appointment on 5/14 last year and knew about it on 5/7.

Maybe I chose not to upgrade...

nationwish

I think it's pretty much done at this point, unless you are on a pretty low donor level. I'm at the Tush level, I believe, and my level was completely through when I spoke to them yesterday.

Did all of the South Outdoor club seats sell out?

Call the Foundation, they'll let you know if there are any available, or you can log on and look for yourself. I know in previous years when I was increasing my number of seats, it was in June before they contacted me.

When I chose my seats yesterday there were very few available in s outdoor club, and they were mostly singles.  101, where my seats are was down to 100 seats  give or take.  I'm sure 107 has plenty left but otherwise lower level was pretty slim on choices.

That's good to hear.

I decided not to upgrade, 5-7 at best this year.  We need a new coach.

I had to call them about that too. You have to click on the Foundation logo at top left of page to be able to sign in. Weird they think people would know that....

So you decided against a free upgrade because you want to fire a very popular coach making improvement every year. Brilliant.
