Bronze $255 plus $50 (yesterday it was $238) Bronze isnt $305 total, it’s $205 + $50 donation, for a total of $255. Last year Bronze was $159/seat. It is what it is, and I’m not surprised at all about this, but this may spur us down to only getting 2 season tickets instead of 3. Might jump up to Silver, if possible though, but this is getting too expensive to not use a 3rd ticket half the season.

Have you put in your order yet? I put in my lone silver request, and the total cost was $420 ($300 plus $100 plus $20 processing fee) uwbadgers.com/sports/2017/3/30/volleyball-season-ticket-information.aspx

I made a little cheat sheet. If someone knows what Red was last year I'll update the table accordingly.

LAME.

I made a little cheat sheet. If someone knows what Red was last year I'll update the table accordingly. For fun I looked back at 2021-2024 prices per GA ticket and application fees: Year | Base Price | Application Fee | Total | 2021 | $60 | $5 | $65 | 2022 | $88 | $15 | $103 | 2023 | $84 | $15 | $99 | 2024 | $150 | $20 | $170 |

Just called the ticket office and dropped one seat, so we’re back to two seats like we started in 2020.

Based on the parking rate of $75, I would assume this means 15 home matches are expected ($5/match for parking has been standard for a while). I've been purchasing parking for a few years but this year I think I am going to switch to uber. It will cost a lot more but driving sucks and I really resent the 20 minutes I spend in the parking lot after the game. I've always been able to find free parking on the "presidents" streets south of Regent, with just a few block walk.

So, I get my tix, including the mandatory $50 donation for each seat. Then, I get 2 emails. 1 confirming ticket purchase, and the other... thanking me for my "gift". Imagine going to somebody and threatening them to give you $50 and then when they give you the $50, you say, "Thanks for the gift."

I sent a response to the "gift" email saying exactly what you're saying here, and telling them that the $100 of revenue they'll get here will be offset by my not buying some number of football or men's hockey tickets this coming year. Whether anyone will actually read the response...

FYI!! I've had 4 Badgers VB season tickets for years, I logged into the portal to pay for the 2024 season and they only had me down as having 2 season tickets. I called the ticket office, the person that answered told me that I only had 2 tickets, I explained that I've had 4 for years, he put me on hold and came back and said I was right and proceeded to charge me for the 4 Bronze level tickets along with the $50/ticket donation and processing fee. I received an email that showed me what I paid but not what I paid for. My online account hasn't updated yet so I will keep an eye on that. The portal also showed that I paid for 6 football tickets but that I only paid for 2 in prior years (I've had 6 FB tickets for at least 20 years). Something strange has happened to their portal so please beware...

Do you even count the Fiserv matches as home matches in the package if they've already gone on sale? They are not home matches, and they are CERTAINLY not part of the season ticket package. I'm sorry. I had it backward. I thought you were saying those were the home matches, because they added up to 4.
