UT email says a moderate 4 % increase

Seems more money we pay the worse the teams get... wanna keep raising prices thia much we need too be playing for championships

There will always be price increases. 4% is pretty fair and minimal. We do get a bonus P4 (SEC) home game this fall in place of the routine 3rd buy game thanks to the SEC going to 9 conference games. The best part part is that season ticket prices were already locked in for next fall.

Better keep winning if the prices keep going up.

For Basketball tickets for improvements..next year. I thought that happened this year.It will never END

they have GOT to improve the out of conference home schedule. Can't do anything about the conference home schedule but if you're asking top dollar for tickets you can't give the fans 5 Delta State type opponents.

The dollar lost 10% of its value in 2025. We don’t live in a vacuum.

Just hasn’t been worth it for a while now. Can watch at home. Especially with the lack of quality games, late night, week night games and parking issues.

But the govt thinks medical costs rose only 0.09% last year

Will be interesting which way this swings if Barnes retires after this year.

Dropping mine. Hurts. Simply not worth it anymore. Law of diminishing returns.

I get it. Don’t be dragging any slivers of sunshine into the doom and gloom. The bottom line is there will continue to be price increases in every sport. Fans have the choice to pay the prices to attend and support the teams or we can choose to not pay the prices and support the teams in other ways. Or, third option, we can walk away. Nobody that is paying to be on a message board dedicated primarily to Tennessee Vols athletics (along with the Braves, the weather, destination restaurants and various other OT’s) has yet chosen to walk away.

Season tickets have been sold out every season for the past few years. It’s worth it to a lot of us. Tennessee has one of the largest basketball arenas in the country and fills it consistently. The same goes for Neyland Stadium and football. The reality is that Tennessee fans are willing to pay the current prices to attend football, basketball, baseball and softball games. The season ticket sales and gameday attendance proves it out.

What should be one’s expected return for basketball tickets to justify an “investment”?

“Pay these prices, and please, pay no more” (except for the yearly increases)

Better go hire a guy like Bucky.

Not while DEI Danny is on the job.

Interestingly my wife and I were adding up the cost of our season ticket commitments in the football and both basketball teams last night after we got back from the game. It’s getting outrageous. we are not talking about giving them up just looking at the cost. no question they are pricing some fans out of it.

Back to back Elite 8s is worse?

Let me get this straight but forgive me if I'm out of touch. I've never lived close enough to consider season tickets. If MrsNYC and I wanted two premium floor seats, entry level would be around $6K and the premo seats would be $20K?
