as I stated in the winter, I didn’t renew my tickets this year. Today I got a package from Rutgers containing a game worn jersey and handwritten note asking to contact them if I ever need anything. Maybe somebody is starting to get it over there. Anyone else get one?
Gift from Rutgers
- Thread starter vkj91
- Start date
I didn't renew tickets and got a envelope within the past week asking for R Funds donations.... so no I don't think they get it. I was a 12 year season ticket holder.
I'll see if anything came in the mail later though.

Two Rutgers cheerleaders just rang my doorbell dressed in their cheerleader outfits. Saw it on my ring doorbell camera. Wonder what they wanted?
Giving up tickets is deciding not to buy entertainment. Donating to the R Funds is about giving back to the University.
Two different things in my opinion.
Selling 50-50s for the umass game...
No but mom and apparently Rutgers always liked you best.
I'm gonna assume you were a decent sized donor to the school. They probably feel your loss a bit more than many others.
Funny, I renewed my tickets and got nothing! :angry:
To a point yea. R Funds are connected to priority points though so there is not as much incentive for some.
I Take this as the opposite of getting it. They rewarded you for canceling tickets rather than rewarding you for continued support.
Only thing I received upon lowering my ticket count was an email from RFUND with this awful title in the subject line.
Support RFund! (Downgrades)
I guess all the renewals that lowered ticket counts were placed in the (downgrades) contact list. I suppose they should have deleted contact list title before sending out email.

I've been going since the mid fifties, guess what I got? Close your eyes, what do you see?

I'm calling BS. I think you are trying to stir up the crazies.
I was sort of thinking the same thing. How many game-worn jerseys would they need to send out to provide one for every cancelled ticket.
Probably just sending to those that donate a little cash. Not your average Joe.
I donate enough cash to get my name on the ribbon scoreboard at halftime.
If they’re doing this, im sure they’re just doing it for big donors.
If so then it’s a nice and smart gesture, I don’t know how anyone could actually find fault with this.
Your name is "Rutgers 0"? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

That's great to hear. Whatever the criteria it looks like you did not meet it. Why don't you call and complain.
Yea I didnt get ****. So if this is real then it was reserved for much higher level donors. A nice gesture but if thats the case they could have tiered it for all people. Dont something very modest foe the small fish and bigger things for the whales. That way at least they pretend to care about everyone, big and small. At the same time it is a bit of a mixed message.
I renewed so I received a different package so to speak... got a game worn athletic supporter. Thanked me personally for taking one for the team this upcoming season.
Sorry but they were looking for the former poster (NYC)banker.
I didn’t renew but still got a sweet envelope filled with coupons to local businesses addressed to me under my old college nickname ‘Occupant’.

Wow you got the top gift-they were PERSONALLY delivering "game worn panties".
Typical RU fans, take a gesture that’s meant to keep a decent size donor happy and ***** about it
So curious since you are a decent size donor, what gets you back as a season tix holder? I don't mean fire coach and hire a big name, that's obvious...I mean if we go 5-7 and look decent on offense without crazy blow outs you back next year or no?
No because recruiting has been bad as well. If he could say “look, I won 5 games and my last three classes have been in top half of the conference”...but he can’t.
I don’t need a big name coach. I want prior HC that won someplace else. I’ve given many names over the years and all were realistic
I’m sure if the lowel level donors who dropped got a gift people would be coming on here mocking the athletic department somehow too.
Some people were just born to *****.
Noh, I’m really glad they did it. Vk is likely in a different/ higher level bracket than me and they need to do stuff like that for higher-contributing donors...all I wanted was a phone call.

Have they asked you for feedback as to why you dropped? I’d love for the AD’s office to get info like this.

Yes. I told them exactly why and the actually listened because it was referenced in the letter.
