Not a bad idea if you ask me. The other home games on the schedule are garbage, and they won't get many fans to them anyways, so they'd be better off trying to sell out the two marquee home games at their disposal.

WTF?

That's what happens when you put a lib like Donna Shalala in charge. She has never served in a business capacity her entire life.

that full page ad is really a pathetic attempt at marketing.
it's terrible.


how about for the other games they just give tickets away at the local 7-Eleven with the purchase of a Big Gulp.

3) I’m not so sure I can stomach the remaining home games on the schedule and feel as though I may throw up on my lap.

The actual ad is pretty bad, but I fail to see how the concept is bad for anyone. I guess the general smugness of college football fans is what makes this a story.

FSU did a 3 game pack last year. They are doing a 6 game pack this year(Minus Florida). Not a big deal since UM cannot fill their stadium.
