That may be the case... To me as a fan its Emberassing because the place should have been already sold out. It appears they have messed up the pricing at least from my limited view. When you can't get your fans to buy a season ticket for $100, why on earth did you think they would pony up $50 for one game? They aren't 50,they are 40..as for seasons tickets... Our season ticket base would be second in the maac by a large margin and it grows every year. So yeah... Folks here have a perception that UA season ticket base is 50 people. Is it Sienas season ticket base? Not not even close but for a mid-major it's a growing product. Albeit it slowly...

Your repeated and frankly retarded comments about tax payers make no sense... Ever... Dave. What does financial backing of taxpayers have to do with sefcu and UA program. You seem resentful that UA as a flagship campus of a STATE University is in part finances by the taxpayers. How else would you do it Dave? Should UA stop being a state institution and go private? WTF Dave? At least pretend that you have 3 functional brain cells... clickclack, why are you referring to Albany as "a flagship campus of a STATE University" when it is rated 74th among public universities by US News & World Report and is significantly behind Binghamton (36th), Stony Brook(42nd) and Buffalo (43rd)? Irrelevant... There are four SUNY centers... Ypu got something to show UA not being one of the four? I'll wait... You going to turn this into a referendum on UA the institution? Let's go... We can take a look at your own bankrup institution.

We can take a look at your own bankrup institution. Interesting you would talk about finances when your institution is primarily funded by we, the taxpayers. Siena has to go it alone. Comparing apples to oranges.

If memory serves the state makes up approximately 19% of you Albanys operating budget or some crazy number like that I'll look it up tonight so why don't you tell me again how the taxpayer is funding everything at Albany

(This year being irrelevant since the Siena fanbase doubled you up this year just to support our team for one game in your gym.)

Thanks for the $$ I know a number of good Siena folks who will make a few other games.

What do you think Flagship means it means it's one of the four research centres of the SUNY system. I get it flagship is one... The point remains that in the SUNY system it's peers are the other four research centers. I guess that's what I was trying to convey.

This 35 is for all SUNY centers... What is the percentage for UA specifically?

While you're at it look up season ticket holders you had last year. (This year being irrelevant since the Siena fanbase doubled you up this year just to support our team for one game in your gym.) Thanks for the $$ I know a number of good Siena folks who will make a few other games. I will too. I already paid for them, so i cherry picked a couple others. Your home schedule might be worse than ours, and that's hard to do. (your fans should NEVER have to pay for a D-3 team in their season ticket package)
