I have 12.9 Phil points is there a chance I will get two tickets?

When does the process start? It looks like April 31 the donations are locked. When does the ticket office start doing the upgrades and new ticket request? June?

What's your philanthropic rank? You need to be ranked 4000 or higher to realistically expect a call.

May 31st is the deadline to pay for season tickets. The wait list calls won't start until after that. I'm sure season renewals will likely be at 100% this year with Bama coming to town...this year's wait list probably won't be as favorable as last year's IMO.

4,880 but that was with 9 points. I made my donation this year and I am up to 12.9 points (re-rankings are not out I don think). I got on the season ticket list for 10 dollars, but if I knew better what the Phil number that is required I would wait until I got that number to request tickets.

I didn't even think of the fact that nobody is probably dropping their tickets.

Is it worth me continuing to try?

Yes, you should continue giving at least $100 every year and getting on the wait list every year. It won't take too long if you're already in the 4500 ranking range. You might even get a call this year.

you can login to TAF.org and see your current ranking.

yeah 4,880 is my rank per the website right now. I thought after the deadline they re-rank you I could be wrong because that is a complete guess. So I should give my 100 to phil puropse though right like tiger stadium preservation etc. You get more points for that right?

yeah, definitely donate to the things that give 2pts per $1000.

I'm not sure what all falls under that category (maybe others can chime in)...I've always given to the Scholarship Endowment Program and I know that gives 2pts per 1000

my guess is that you'll either get a call this year or next year if you're already closing in on Top4000 ranking

I have 20.12 points and currently ranked 3801 in Philanthropic Priority Points. 2 years ago I got a call with only single seat season tickets available and this past season it was single seats along with pairs in the east upper deck. Been holding out for a pair in either endzone but will get a pair if available.

FYI I've been doing the $100 donation/year since 2007.

I quit giving to Taf for awhile which I guess was a mistake although at the time I wanted to give to the alumni association, and I still give more to them then TAF. TAF recognizes that dontation, but you get hammered.

anyway sounds like I have a few years to go. I live in New Jersey so I don't have to have them it is just something that would be nice. I would take East Upper Deck I guess.

I kind of decided to get tickets because I tried to get WVU tickets last year bc I could drive to the game and realized you aren't anybody if you don't have season tickets.
