In the process of renewing my season tickets for the 2020 football season it is apparent that the Wake athletic department is taking advantage of the football season ticket buyers.
The upcoming season has only 6 home games and my season tickets, in Section 6, are the same price as they were in 2019 when there were 7 home games. In 2019, the average cost for myself and my spouse to attend a single game, plus Blue Lot parking, was $156. This price is hard to believe by itself. In 2020, I will paying the same price for 1 less game, which works out to be an average of $182 per game.
To make matters worse, this years "missing" 7th home game has been moved to Charlotte vs. Notre Dame and the
ticket prices are sky-high.
A seat, comparable to my seat location at BB&T, is priced at $235. Thus, it would cost me and my spouse, at a minimum
of $500(tickets and parking) plus gas, etc., to attend the game in Charlotte.
In summary, in 2019, 7 games cost an average of $156 per game for me and my spouse. In 2020, 7 "home games", 6 in Winston and 1 in Charlotte, would cost me an average of $227 per game.
This is a tough pill to swallow. The only rationalization must be that Currie is serious about finally biting the bullet and firing Manning and using this football money to buy out Manning's contract.
