Well, we pay in onw way or another.  At BU, student's can buy a sports pass
for $50[in fact, it's ao^H ^Hutomatically chard^H ^Hged-you have to reject it]
each year.  This allows you so many tickets for any sport[football, basketball,
hockey, etc.] during the school year.  You can only get one tich^H ^Hket per
game this way, however.  I never tried to get more than that, although I'm
sure it's possible.  Otherwise, each hockey game is $10 each for students.
If I've got the figures wrong, some other BU person can correct me.  I
just went and got season tix so I can avoid the whole mess this year.
