Are Hog Fans Willing To Pay More @ The Ticket Booth To Help Buyout Bret?

[Sportster365]

At 72000 seats and 6 home games plus the WMS game the 15M dollar buyout wouldn't seem so unattainable after all.

[NuttinItUp]

Start a Kickstarter or GoFundMe to get the money and see if anyone donates.

I highly doubt it.

[havok]

I sense it is going to be a bit more difficult next season to fill those seats. 

Sorry to say..but the Team and coaches have a long way to go toward wining back the fans to the point they are willing to shell out money to see the product on the field..  Because lord knows CBB should personally reimburse every Ark fan for the cost of what they spent going to that bowl game.

yea we will certainly see about that. The last home game was sold out and most the games were sold out this year.

More than likely I'll bet on the daddies just wanting to take the munchkins to a Hog game or show off his trophy skank wife. Maybe so these guys can have a guys day at the ball yard throwing back beers. Do those 72k that filled the seats this year really care about the outcome of the scoreboard?

The fans did not make the hidious deal, Long did, that's the moron that should be reaching in his pocket.

[DeltaBoy]

Fire Long.

[Dwight_K_Shrute]

Be cheaper to pay for a headhunter to convince an NFL team to hire him. I'm thinking Buffalo

[hogcard1964]

Fire Long.

Agree

Funny, I actually talked with my dad today about wheather or not we would renew our tickets next year. We have had the same seats for over 20 years. Our decision hasn't been made yet but I will tell you that only twice in all these years have we thought about it. The other time, the fans FINALLY convinced the ptb to lose hdn before we decided to not renew. Long probably has one more year of us throwing money away before we come to our senses, but I'm not sure.

I wasn't asked my opinion just before he was hired.  But yeah, I would pitch in but only if I had a bit of say in at least who makes the next decision on who is hired and what they receive in compensation.  Hiring BB, at the prices paid was a horrible deal.  The man is just not worth the price paid and never was. This hire would be like paying $300.00 bucks for an advertised super great meal and then being taken to McDonalds for a Happy Meal.

Well, that's an opinion for sure.

I was thinking the same thing, whether right or wrong.

McRib, only for a limited time.

The 4 games I made this year said it was a "sellout" but the upper level wasn't full by long shot. Unfortunately as long as it's considered a sellout there won't be any changes.

Which side?

[Dirty]

Why buy tickets? That will prove nothing.  Empty seats will be noticed.

[The Hawg Marshal]

Does buyout money come from the gate receipts?

It all looks and spends the same to me.

It would come from the RF, more than likely, they guarantee the vast majority of the contract.

Exactly.
