Title: Season Ticket Sales, Avery Johnson, & the Coliseum
Post by: Marshal Dillon on April 14, 2015, 09:15:38 PM
So far, so good.

Overhauling the game-day experience in Coleman Coliseum was a priority for the new coach. In that spirit, Alabama launched a season-ticket sales drive April 8 in the hours after Johnson was officially introduced. Fans could place a $50 deposit toward a season-ticket application.

Since then, an Alabama spokesman said they've sold approximately 500 new season tickets. That helped offset the drop of 570 season tickets between the 2013-14 and 2014-15 seasons.

They need a package for out of town folks.  I can't drive down there for 20 home games over the course of about 4 or 5 months, but I could come for 4 or 5 games.  I hate to buy season tickets and then have empty seats 75% of the time.

And, tickets are usually easy to get on gameday. 

Or might be you could order individual games.   ???

I'd certainly buy season tickets if I were within a 30-45 min drive.  First year I've felt that way in a while though.

After season tickets are sold they normally offer mini packages to some very good games. Last season they offered a SEC Saturday games package that included 4 SEC games. They also offer some three game packages. These type of packages vary from year to year depending on season ticket sales and ticket demand.

Watch Rolltide.com during the season. They offer promotional deals all the time. First 300 kids get a tee shirt or player bobble head. On Valentine's Day last year (Saturday Vandy game) they offered a buy one ticket get one free.
