I gave mine up this year after having them up for years. Some years I made money and still made most games, some I lost. It slowly became where I couldn’t make most games. For me, it’s now cheaper just to buy what games I go to off Stub or Seatgeek. Even if I buy west side uppers. I think I had more fun up there then when I was in the SEZ and west side lower.

I also had women’s BB that I never made money on until this year. I’m gonna keep them because they are dirt cheap.

Oh, and call me crazy, but I sold my west side tickets and tried out the skyline club for Army last year. I had a damn good time up there. Plenty of breathing room.

I use to sell my tkts that I didn't want to go to pretty easily and made nice money for most games until they added the upper south enzone. You can barely give tkts away now.

“You can barely give tkts away now.”

Some games you really can not Give them away …
Had so many offers from friends and I even had a few of my guest seats go empty …( I give them away). Those stupid early games are not very popular.. and especially with less competitive teams and all the nonsense of cost for parking.. food… possible lodging…

The game experience has significantly gotten lacking in recent years.. not talking about the players..coach… etc.. but the experience of attending.

This kinda did in for me. I got to adding up how much I was spending a year and how much it was going up. And for them to go up this year on the ticket prices, I just said I’m done. And I didn’t have the best parking (407) and stayed in the same hotel for 20 years. One that most wouldn’t stay at, but it was quiet and no one bothered me. But that 3 hr one way trip and all just burned me out as I got older.

Just looked.. some available in lower sections … home side….on ends 5 ish yard line … a few up higher.. appears they are letting a few TAF clusters go to the public.. fyi.. do not take those real low seats… your view will be less than you probably want…

Lots of green throughout the stadium.. more greened sections than usual (imo)… but when you open them they are more double seats scattered.. ( one pair and the entire section will show green)…. But idk… in general not as many large groups available than I have seen in the past.. you probably have 50 pairs at most available on home side lower.. most on ends and high..
things change when you go to the visitors side but with the morning and day games becoming more common.. buyer beware…

Good hunting… have fun!
