Texas A&M Football announces complete sell-out of 2025 season tickets

Texas A&M is hoping the second year of the Mike Elko era proves to continue the positive upswing the program is on. And fans certainly seem to be expecting that.

On Thursday, Texas A&M announced that season tickets for football have sold out for the third consecutive year. The 12th Man has already purchased more than 93,000 tickets, the athletic department announced.

More than 55,000 season tickets were sold in total, while the season ticket renewal rate was a healthy 93%. More than 38,000 student sports passes were sold out, going at a record pace as they were made available to current and incoming students on March 26.

Texas A&M made a number of announcements with regards to ticketing procedures this year. Students will be most impacted by the changes.

The program is moving to digital ticketing this year, so students with sports passes will pull their tickets online. The first day of online ticket pull is Aug. 18. More info will be released about the process later this summer.

The Aggies are also expecting seating to play a key role in creating a unique home field advantage. SEC rules have allowed teams to place fans in certain areas.

Per a release, “only three sections in the first deck are filled with non-student season ticket holders,” while “most of the prime seats behind the opponent’s bench are filled with Texas A&M students stretching end zone to end zone in all three decks.”

Lawsuit by Texas A&M donors proceeding

A group of Texas A&M donors will finally get their day in court for a dispute against the 12th Man Foundation over parking and seating at Kyle Field. According to the Houston Chronicle, a judge in Brazos County denied a summary judgment motion from the 12th Man Foundation, which sought to dismiss the lawsuit.

The donors initially filed the lawsuit in 2017. It included 16 families who entered agreements with the foundation’s Permanently Endowed Scholarship Program during the 1970s, 1980s and early 1990s. They allege that the foundation promised them “lifetime or 30-year benefits” for donations they made that ranged from $20,000-$50,000.

They claim that those benefits were “significantly diminished” after A&M made renovations to the stadium following the school’s move to the SEC in 2012. The lawsuit estimates they lost seating rights valued at $4.6 million. Three of the donors listed in the lawsuit have died since it was initially filed eight years ago.
