I get the woke alumni rag that has sob stories about Maribel, the poor daughter of illegal Mexican farm workers from the Yakima Valley who overcame leprosy and one arm to become the best surgeon in New York after doing undergrad at UW. Won't you support these people Bill? You privileged white male! They never ask for Tyee donations though. Weird.

The Olds writing in shitting on them for their "misinformation" article was entertaining.

I chuck that rag in the trash without even opening it.
 
Just received this email. They said I could my tickets back at a discount

My name is Ty, I just left you a voicemail about Husky Football, thanks so much for your support of the program over the past years. Coming to Husky games on Montlake is such a special tradition, and being a season ticket holder is one of the most impactful investments you can make for UW Athletics. We truly appreciate your support of our student-athletes here at Washington.

As our Dawgs ramp up for spring football with Coach DeBoer and staff and look towards the 2022 season with excitement, we're doing everything we can to create an amazing environment for the Huskies this fall. We know this past year was difficult on many fronts and you've been getting a lot of communication from our office; we want to be sure you have every opportunity to maintain all of your years of purchase and Tyee priority points you've earned over the years, and be part of our Seat Upgrade process, which has begun Monday, April 11th.

We value your years of loyalty and your support. If you decide to continue your commitment to the program, please let me know and I would be excited & happy to personally help you with your options for joining us for the 2022 season.

Thanks again for your contributions & bleeding purple over the years! Go Dawgs!

So much for those hard deadlines and veiled threats
 
Here is the email I received this morning regarding the discount

rom your past purchase of being a season ticket holder, I see you sat last season in section 329 row 32. At this price level, you were paying $2,200 a season. Over your time of being a season ticket holder and other purchases, you have accumulated 229.2 priority points. This helps you with the priority of wanting tickets for UW athletics.

We can look to renew your tickets at a Priceline that would be almost 50% and in the relatively same area your seats are currently located. Renewing keeps your priority points and years of purchase. We can even look into a cheaper route as well in our value seating which is $345.

I have also created a list of different benefits you get as a season ticket holder.

1. Access to closed practices for Football (We did this for our season ticket holders for Women's Basketball, looking to do this for Football as well.)
2. Season Ticket Holder Appreciation Events (Examples in non-covid years include camping out at Husky Stadium, meet and greet with coaches, facility tours, exclusive dinners, and more)
3. Priority Access to Bowl Game and Away Game tickets (This is where the points are huge. If you are thinking about going to any games on the road, all of the previous points Barbara has will ensure that you would be able to attend most of our away games, for example, games vs Oregon or WSU)
4. Partnered with Stubhub (We are directly partnered with Stubhub meaning that you can always list your tickets for sale whenever you are unable to attend. It is a simple process and has helped a lot of our season ticket holders cut their overall costs down by selling a few games)
5. Mobile Ticketing (We are able to easily transfer tickets between mobile devices, making it easy to share tickets with friends and family. All you need is an email or phone number.)
 
The 50% off is moving me two rows back out of Tyee. My seats were the very back of Tyee as to be Tyee and as far away from the drip line. I lose the E1 pass. The savings is the seat donation. Gonna hard pass.
 
I don’t think any schools provide enough value anymore with season ticket packages to make up for twash home schedules. There’s only 3-4 home games a year worth going to. Buy them on stubhub and you’ll get better seats at a lower total cost
