I just though I'd let you all know that after an 11 year wait I just received my 1st invoice for season tickets today! So hang in there. Now the only "problem" I have is coming up with $3500 by July 17th

Congrats! How are the seats?

Great news! But you joined before they won a superbowl (or three...). I'm still banking on another 15 years or so for me. Buy hey, by that time maybe I'll have the money to pay for them

Congrats! At least I have some actual timeline now rather than the many theories floated here and in conversation with others. Now I just have only about another year and a half to wait! LOL

Congratulations. Give them a big shout from me.

(I figure that I'm doing this for my daughter (or, perhaps, my as yet unborn grandchildren).)

Thanks everyone. They're 3 rows from the very top in section 328(10 to 20 yard line). I've sat in the nose bleeds before. They take some getting used to. It's a very steep grade up there compared to the 200 and 100 sections.

About the same as mine. It's not a bad perspective. Congrats!

I'm curious, how can season tickets cost that much ($3500), especially for non-premium seats? Say you have 8 regular home game and 2 preseason, that's $350 per game. If you get 2 seats, that's $175 each!! What am I missing?

4 seats for ten games...? That sounds about right.

How do the fees work out for season tickets? Do you have to pay a Ticketmaster fee or anything for every game/seat?

That's still about $90 per game. Are ticket costs that high? I haven't been to a game for a couple years, but that still sounds expensive.
