Kangaroo Craig Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 I just opened a letter from Coach J. D. Brookhart asking me to renew my season tickets. I most definitely will. Included in the letter were four reserved seats worth a total of $40 to the upcoming Aeros game versus the Binghamton Mets on Sunday, April 10th. I thought that was a very nice gesture on the University's part to do that. To those of you who are season ticket holders: Are you planning on going to the Baseball game two weeks from Sunday?

GP1 Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 See you at the game. I agree, it was a good jesture by the University. I'll probably even upgrade to reserved tickets this year because of the Can't game and the Army game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentZip Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Kudos to the Zips for the tickets. I will be at the baseball game as well. However, ATTENTION TICKET OFFICE: Please, for the love of attendance, whenever you mail out a communication about ticket sales, include a form to send back with check and/or credit card information. Don't leave any doubt about what you want the recipient of the letter to do. As it stands, your letter tells me where my seats will be located and how much they will cost. You then tell me to call if I have any questions or would like to change seats or buy more seats. Now you have me guessing - do they want me to call to renew my seats? - do they want me to send a check in with the letter as my invoice? Every year I see questions about why there isn't more fan support and I think that along with winning, it is the dozen or more small things like this that add up to poor attendance. I have personally witnessed several 20 year season ticket holders quit coming to games because of interaction with the Ticket Office. I'm done with my semi-rant, but I'll leave it with this thought. Which ticket department made out better on this mailing, the Zips or the Aeros? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zipsrifle Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 I think my stuff showed up yesterday but I didn't open it. I just avoid all the hassle and call the ticket office. I had reserved last year but will get the general admission this year since I sit in the endzone. It always varies how many of my friends will come to the games with me. I try to make it as easy as possible for them to come. Sitting in the cheap seats where they can always find me minimizes excuses, plus I can make all the noise I wan't and not have "Silent Fans" complaining that I'm too loud. I'm just going to give my tickets to some of my friends back in Ohio, I can't make the game from Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kangaroo Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 My dealings with the ticket office last year: CK: "I'd like to renew my football season tickets. Can I get a 2004 Media Guide too?" Ticket Person: "No problem." CK: "Are you sure? I've requested this in the past and it never shows up." Ticket Person: "I'll make sure it doesn't happen again." CK (three months later, opening the ticket envelope): Gee...this evvelope feels kinda light....must be a small media guide this year? Hmmm here's the tickets, but no media guide. I'm shocked." At least they didn't charge me for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
