Win a Catered Suite for the spring game for 20!
Just got a UM Athletic Dept text. Thought some of you might be interested.
Go there, like the page, and get linked to another page where you can enter info to win a catered suite for 20 to the spring game as well as other packages. Pretty cool opportunity.
Also, if an MGoBlogger wins it, we so need to set up a meet-up for a few choice MGoBloggers to attend.
This game is on my 18th birthday...I'm going to UMich next year...I gotta win hahaha
Link isn't working for me.
It works. You have a script blocker running or something?
Thanks for the heads up. My wife can't say no to the trip if it's free! You guys should root for me to win. As a UM fan in Ohio, I don't know 20 people who would want to go. Line up to be my new best friend ; -)
And I agree about filling it up. I've always wondered how people fill up suites every game, and not just at Michigan Stadium (sixteen seats per game for 7/8 games seams reasonable-ish). The United Center has suites for twenty, forty, and one that seats eighty; how do you fill that for 41 NHL games and 41 NBA games if you're not a corporate sponsor or something? And why drop six figures per season if your twenty person suite averages five people or something?
Likely for the same reason that they had to create a Veyron SS... I mean, the original wasn't fast enough or exclusive enough and some of the richest folks needed to distinquish themselves from just the poor and downtrodden rich folks.
Boeing's Business Jet line recently delivered its first 747's, if the 737 or 787 fitted as a private plane is too small for your tastes. I say go for it; if Obama gets two there's no reason I shouldn't buy one, right? Prices from $320,000,000.
I don't know about the luxury boxes, but IME Club seats aren't full for games I've been to. Now keep in mind the games I can get club seats to tend to be crappy games, but STILL. If you spend that much on tickets, it seems to me that you'd go or you'd have NO problems finding someone who would enjoy using your seats.
That said, one of the people I know who has club seats lives far away, so it's not always practical for her to pass on the tickets for games she doesn't fly back for. But that kind of situation can't account for all the many open club seats I've seen.
I bought club seats from another MGoUser for the Purdue game last season, and the section was about two thirds full, at best.
PSD's for the east side club seats vary between $1,150 and $3,000 per seat, so a zone one season ticket holder is essentially paying $850 per ticket (so $1,700 per game for a couple) if they only make it to four games per year. I don't even want to do the math for a suite that isn't filled for every game.
I work for a large company that has/had boxes to all major NY/NJ sports teams for years. The book comes in and people claim the gamess they want. Any tickets that aren't claimed or given to clients are then offered to the mid-level grunts. I got to see a LOT of Mets games in the early 2000's. That's when you call up whomever you know that wants to go and you enjoy yourself.
Hey buddy!
You just reduced your odds of winning. But thanks for thinking of us! :)
on what he thinks his odds of being one of a "few choice MGoBloggers" are, doesn't it?
May the odds be ever in your favor!
does this make Brandon President Snow?
and T-Pain.
I think the "few choice mgobloggers" should be the first ones to reply to this thread!
It will let me check off Share, but it won't let me check off Win. Must be a bug...
Dibs a spot if an MGoBlogger wins it!
I don't think you can call dibs on one... but points for trying!
You would have major excitement if you brought along Tim Tebro.
God bless,
Tim Tebro
