Excellently stated.
How much $$ do you lose in premium seating/game to play in WMS? Millions I would think?
The way to continue playing at War Memorial is to move all home games to Fayetteville, then have a private investment group(the city of Little Rock) "buy" your road games from other(Sun Belt level) teams and play those games in War Memorial...Surely there is enough of a $$ margin there for all involved to make this worthwhile? I think you've already done a little bit of this if I'm not mistaken.
FWIW, State has some fans working to put together a private investment group in attempt to "buy" our Sun Belt-level road games to move them to Jackson. Idea is still in it's infancy stages, so no clue whether or not it happens...

Also, how do season tickets and packages work?

The school pays WMS rent to play the games there.
ULM was on a contract that expired this year allowing them to claim the game against us every other year as a home game so their attendance average for home games would be high enough for them to remain on the FBS level.
