RE: 2023 Football Season Tickets
When you go to place an order there are options for “East Side Chairback” and “Endzone Standing Room Only” that do not show on the map above.

RE: 2023 Football Season Tickets
Good catch. Aren’t the East Side Chairbacks only a row or two right in front of the press box? And SROs? Never seen somebody sell season tickets for SROs, they’re always single game seats released when sales are at or near a sellout. Especially when you could get good seats at or below that price.

Ordered my 4 again. Now we wait until seats open up and pray my lowly Duke Club ranking allows me decent seats

RE: 2023 Football Season Tickets
I wonder if we will get a Bourne update on concession issues before the deadline? It seems like it could help with sales and to alleviate concerns that what we experienced last year is going to persist through the 2023 season.
Have we always had that many game-day restricted sections? Seems like a ton of room for family and recruits but maybe I am misremembering what all is included in those sections.

Very interesting.
East Side Chairbacks installed around section 4/5 could be very good seats. SRO’s could be helpful for games like App St and/or Homecoming game.
Based on the pricing of SRO's, suspect they don't intend to sell those as season tickets, but maybe needed to get them into the system so they can offer them for specific games later.

I don't see areas mentioned by YeeHaw... were they removed or am I blind?
I think it appears that way when you look at all the color codes of this year's map, but I don't know that many tickets were actually sold to the public in the past from blacked out or visitor areas. The map below was the last reseating cycle, but you couldn't actually purchase public tickets in the 100s. Few people chose 201 or 302. Sections 6, 401, and 402 went away last year, but it was rare that people chose seats there or in sections 6, 7, or 8 (I will cite my hawk-like knowledge during the reseating/reparking process as qualification for this post).

Good seats but a real ***** to get through the ticket lines (same entry as students)

Would anything prevent entering another gate and walking over? I don't think we've ever been told we entered the wrong gate.
Probably concessions would be a bigger factor, hopefully they improve that.
If they are adding new seatbacks, and improve concessions and entry, east side chairbacks could be nice.

No one cares what gate you go in

RE: 2023 Football Season Tickets
Is there an update on where they are at with season ticket sales as of now? Would love for us to have sold out some games the day single ticket sales go live, and make sure we can limit the amount of visiting fans in BFS (especially for the ODU and App St. games)
