re: OFFICIAL 2021 ARKANSAS RAZORBACK BASEBALL SEASON THREAD

Now that we have received the 2021 baseball schedule, we’re excited to share available ticketing opportunities with our season tickets holders!

While we wish that we could allow a packed Baum-Walker Stadium and have everyone in their normal seats, the ongoing pandemic and social distance requirements have forced us to consider other options. The plan below best accomplishes our goal of creating a fair and equitable manner for season ticket holders to attend games that they wish to attend in the 2021 season. Detailed below is the process in which season ticket holders will have access to purchase tickets on a single-game basis in 2021.

In the coming days, every season ticket account holder will receive the opportunity to go online and based upon availability, select up to 8 to 10 games.
Games will be broken up into groups (SEC Fridays, SEC Saturdays, SEC Thursday/Sundays, Non-Conference etc.). You will be able to select a certain amount of games from each group on your on-sale date.
In order to allow all interested season ticket holders the opportunity to attend games this season, each season ticket account will be limited to selecting two (2) tickets, per-game selected.
You may choose only the games you wish to attend and will only pay for those games. The number of games that you elect will have no impact on your status toward securing baseball season tickets again next season.
SEC TV selections have not been determined yet. If a Friday-Sunday series gets moved to Thursday-Saturday, then Sunday game tickets will be applicable to Thursday’s game. Friday and Saturday games would remain unchanged.
When selecting your games, you will have the opportunity to choose from various available ticket areas for each game. You will not be selecting exact seats during the selection process, simply which section(s)/area you wish to have your tickets allocated.
There are different per-game ticket costs associated with each area, with a few areas having slightly different pricing for a weekend game vs. a mid-week game (shown below).
Seat selection days will be based upon 2020 Annual Fund membership levels (as of 12/31/20). All season ticket holders will be notified of their specific seat selection day on Thursday, Jan. 21.
Following the selection of your areas for each game, the Razorback Ticket Center and Razorback Foundation will allocate seats in those areas based upon Razorback Foundation guidelines.
After every season ticket account has had their opportunity to select and purchase games, and should tickets remain, an additional ticket on-sale will occur for season ticket holders to purchase any remaining tickets that went unsold for any games.
A separate on-sale will also occur should additional games get added to the schedule.

The specific date that games will go on sale will be announced via email on Thursday.

Areas (sections) & Per-Seat Pricing
Home Plate/Hog Heaven (106-110): $45
First Base Dugout (103-105): $30, $20 (mid-week games)
Third Base Dugout (111-113): $30, $20 (mid-week games)
Right Field Line (98-102): $15
Left Field Line (114-118): $15
Outfield Chairbacks (Bullpen): $15

Hog Pen Policy

The Hog Pen will look a little different this season. Due to social distancing protocols, there will be no general admission seating in the Hog Pen. Socially distanced, reserved areas will be available for purchase in advance. Fans will be made aware of when these areas go on sale in the next two weeks. Each area will be 6’ by 6’ and will accommodate up to four (4) people. Reserved areas will be sold as a four-ticket unit, not as individual tickets.
Coolers will be permitted but must stay within the confines of your 6’ x 6’ area.
Fans with tickets in the Hog Pen area must enter through the Hog Pen entrance this season.
In order to maintain proper social distancing, only fans with Hog Pen tickets will be permitted in the area. Fans with tickets in the Baum-Walker Stadium bowl seating area will not be permitted to enter the Hog Pen, unlike previous seasons.
Hog Pen grills and picnic tables will not be available for use this season.
Hog Pen Pricing
Hog Pen Bleachers: $10
*Hog Pen Reserved Red Area (4 people): $80, $65 (mid-week games)
*Hog Pen Reserved White Area (4 people): $60, $50 (mid-week games)
*Hog Pen reserved plots will have a separate on-sale date (TBD) following the on-sale for regular stadium tickets. Red areas are in the "front row".

Tailgating
Tailgating will not be permitted in 2021 outside Baum-Walker Stadium or in any parking lot, per ADH directive.

Cardinal & White Parking Lots
What has previously been split into two different reserved lots --Cardinal & White -- will now be one reserved lot called “Cardinal”. All fans who had either a Cardinal or White pass last season will have a Cardinal lot pass in 2021. The Baum Walker-East parking lot will continue to operate “as is”.

Gates Opening
Consistent with changes made in basketball and football, gates to Baum-Walker Stadium will open 30 minutes later than previous seasons. That means gates at Baum-Walker Stadium will open 90 minutes before first pitch.

Opt Out
Due to COVID-19, if you are uncomfortable coming to games this season and wish to opt out, you can do so at this time by clicking the button below. Opting out of the 2021 season will not affect your status as a baseball season ticket next season, however you must remain a member of the Razorback Foundation for the 2020-21 academic year. Your 2021 pledge will be automatically entered as well.

Also some jersey talk...White uni's no longer have the red on shoulder. Solid white now.

I like it. A much cleaner look to the uni's now. I am never a fan of cluttering up a jersey, especially in baseball.

Arlington tickets bought and rooms at Texas Live. Can’t wait. $50 per person for all games. Nice deal. 14,000 capacity allowed.

For anyone interested in Arlington tickets, I put a link at the top of OP.

Also got email for season tickets selection on Wednesday. Lego

It’s only available through a $30 subscription to FloSports

Seems as though not all season tickets were sold. Got an email today regarding opportunity to purchase more tickets tomorrow.

Pitching has been pretty worrisome in the first three scrimmages, at least from guys we expected to start like Wicklander and Bolden. Both got rocked. Should be interesting to see who steps up out of the army of pitchers we have on the roster going forward, some guys are running out of opportunities IMO.
