Simply having a large number of tickets doesn't really get you very many TAF points. You have to give more than the required "donation" to have a good number of TAF points status.

ETA: You can downvote, but our TAF points with 10 tickets got us end zone nose bleed seats at UF in 2008 and obstructed view seats at Jerry World in 2011.

It's a matter of time, not just number of tickets. My brother moved back to Louisiana around 1985, and the only way he could get four good season tickets was to join TAF. No one even knew what TAF was back then. But 32 years later, he's got an extremely high because he's been "paying in" for so long.

Also - some people sell off their season tickets to keep them in their name. I buy two season grandstand seats from a friend for LSU baseball, then sell off the pair of bleacher seats in my name. If my friend kicks the bucket or we have a falling out, I don't want to be ticketless. Plus I pick up minor Tradition Fund and Visa points.
