I don't think season tickets are unreasonably priced--at $294 per seat,
that's $6 per week. For me, I am willing to plan ahead and budget for that.

As for those who live too far away from Orono, the administration is doing a
great job in bringing the game to as many folks as possible through
television, radio and internet.

How are you going to guarantee that you will sell them all? Especially for
games against "lesser" teams like Sacred Heart and Alabama-Huntsville?

Without that guarantee or even with it for that matter, why should the
university take those 100 tickets away from people who are willing to pay
for the entire season?
