I act like I'm under 30 but because I'm so damn positive, UC wants to charge me 40 percent more!Sorry about the deja vu drunk post last night. Actually,I'm not too sorry. Hey, this quote came from SWG last night. It's too cold outside to use the hot tub.

In addition to the donation I paid $282 for each of the season tickets. So, $1850 when you include parking for the whole season, but most of the donation is tax-deductible.
That what another gigantic question that needed answered. Thanks.

Out of curiousity, what would $7400 get me?

TheShoeFits will become famous soon enough
Is anybody interested in going in halves for basketball season tickets?

SO MUCH. Season tickets for at least 2 for both sports in the best seating tiers for both, with the exception of George Smith Society seating in basketball (midcourt first 20 rows or so).

Seriously, if you're dropping $5000 to $6000, you can have anything you want.

I'm no financial expert, but I think I remember getting a letter from UCATS last year that said 100% of your donation is tax deductible if you don't get a benefit (season tickets etc.), and that 80% of your donation is tax deductible if you do.

Thank you for this response. I had a very arrogant poster on another forum (cough, cough) send me an inbox soliciting "her" tickets because her husband was fed up with Mick Cronin and I could buy them off her for $7,400.00.

I have season tickets with the University of Dayton (I know, I know......but, I'm a current student and both my parents are alums and my entire family lives in Dayton) and pay $1,300 for 2 tickets about 20 rows up.

Needless to say, I thought $7,400 might come with some "special favors" during halftime or something....

Quite possibly, if some of my other pawns don't take the bait!

Alum, I will add the caveat that higher donations allow you the opportunity to buy tickets in the better seating tiers, but maybe this lady's husband has the best seats in that section...front row and center. His/her tickets may fetch that price.

Or he/she could just be an arrogant, self-important fan. Either way.

I think it is a combination of both.............deadly combination.
