Bulls Nation, apologize for the long post, but felt like it was a good time to catch up with you guys on a handful of topics! The timing also felt right with us being officially one week into launching our new on-campus stadium website (https://t.co/7HIieSmkso) and the premium sales process!
First, wow!!!!! We’ve been blown away by the overwhelming interest, deposits, etc. While the initial demand for premium has exceeded every expectation imaginable, it’s not too late to hop on the list at https://t.co/7HIieSmkso, so our team can talk with you on what stadium game experience may be perfect for you!
Second, there were some news stories last week related to the Tampa Sports Authority potentially managing our new stadium, and while TSA is one of a variety of options that we are exploring both externally and internally, no final decision has been made or negotiated yet. Rest assured, we are thoroughly evaluating which of our options will be most beneficial to creating a world-class fan experience, maximizing revenue generation and helping attract the best sports and entertainment’s events to our campus.
Lastly, we’ve seen a few questions related to our new stadium club ticket options as compared to the Raymond James Stadium clubs. We anticipated this could be a concern for some of our valued fans who currently have tickets in the club at Ray Jay and we understand where you are coming from if that’s the case. As has been mentioned, these are vastly different club experiences from what we have had over the last three decades at RJS. First, Ray Jay’s sideline clubs can hold up to 18K for big events, which is more than 27% of that stadium’s capacity and about half of our entire new stadium’s overall capacity. Comparatively, our new sideline club is 1K seats, which represents less than 3% of our new stadium’s capacity and is in line with the size of most modern clubs at newer on-campus stadiums. The second major difference, which has been pointed out, is the elevated all-inclusive nature (vs cash concessions). Know the heat can be a concern for day games, and we can’t always control kick times as it relates to national television, BUT rest assured, we will always push for night games when we can, like you’re already seeing with this upcoming season’s schedule.
Really appreciate everyone’s amazing support and hope this provides additional transparent perspective on a few recent topics that seem to be on the top of mind for our fans. If you enjoy updates like this, please let us know and we’ll make it a point to try to do them more often.
We are well on our way to accomplishing things that others don’t believe are possible, thanks to the support of amazing members of Bulls Nation like each of you!!!
All Gas! No Brakes! Go Bulls!!!🤘🏻😤📈
@RHiggins_USF Has club seat pricing been announced yet? I put down my deposit as soon as I could but haven't heard anything since. Why not build enough club seating to satisfy current Season Ticket Holders? This feels bad; but I remain hopeful it will all work out. #gobulls.

.@ZohranKMamdani yes hello it is Danhausen ~ Danhausen needs a giant floating Danhausen balloon ready for the parade that drops pizza and hot dog to all the New Yorkers.
Danhausen may be placed in between Snoopy and Garfield.
PS ~ give the muppet who lives in a garbage can an apartment so he can get off the streets and turn his life around.
COLBERT: How dumb do you think it is for people to say that I should run for president?
OBAMA: Well, you know, the bar has changed. I think you would perform significantly better than some folks we've seen.
COLBERT: Is that an endorsement?
OBAMA: It was not
