Bulldog club question

[leftydog]

Looking at the season ticket info, am I understanding correctly that basically you need at least a $100 bulldog club membership to get priority parking, etc?

 

[jmbeck]

$100 is the minimum donation to be in the BC.

However, everything is also based on your priority level. Your priority level is determined by how much you give in one year, how much you've given total, season ticket purchases, etc.

I don't know the numbers, but it's entirely possible that if you only give $100, you won't be eligible for a parking pass as they may be full. It's awarded based on priority.

Also, $100 will only make you eligible for two tickets in sections B, F, & G. If you want more than that, you'll be placed in the upper decks.

Last year's ticket policy can be found here. It should explain things.

If you have any other questions, let me know.

Also, if you want to join the BC, let me know that also, and I'll make sure you are taken care of.

but I thought the club level seats entailed a 1k donation and the $250 price of season tickets (the 1k being 80% deductible). Based on the attached brochure, the $1250 is just the price of the ticket (meaning, I assume, none of it would be deductible). Which is it?

The CL requires a $1,250 donation, plus the cost of the ticket.

Also I bet DW will be reseated by the 2011 season like the Hump; therefore your seat location will be based upon your BC priority level. All the more reason to give and/or up your giving to the BC now since lifetime giving and annual giving are the two biggest components in computing your point totals.

I would bump it up some.

 

[leftydog]

is basically saying that $100 BDC donors have worse parking than every other game I've attended the last two years? ouch.

 

[TheBigDA]

How often should they re-seat DWS? Every 2 years?

 

[jmbeck]

We are now 600 members away from 10,000 BC members.

Food for thought, in Nov. 2007, we had 5800 members. Two years later, we have 9400.

Just another example of how Greg Byrne is making things better.

why not just donate $600? should be safer in terms of getting parking priority and such.

 

[Mr Meoff]

policy. When I called before the season, they said they put us on the 'waiting list', so I assumed it was a list in order of who called when... Found out yesterday, that list is in order of donation amount.

It makes sense, but I did not know that. Another reason to bump your BC donations.

 

[jmbeck]

Yes, ultimately it comes down to your BC ranking.

However, you have to be (need to be) on the waiting list to ensure that the BC knows you are willing to bump your donation.

If club level seats become available, (I think) they go down the waiting list in order of your BC priority level. So, while you may have a higher priority level, the BC may not now you are interested in club level seating.

This is what I've inferred based on how it was explained to me today.

When they eventually do re-seat everyone, I also think that they should have a limited time Quick Buy option that basically guarantees you seats in certain sections if you give certain amounts that year. You'd probably get people to give pretty substantial increases if they knew exactly what they were getting and didn't have to worry about priority points.

They could also have an option where you give some amount per seat to guarantee it for additional years.

 

[leftydog]

but being as how I will be "donating" tuition again in the fall, $600 will be hard to come by.
