This is my first post to the Rant, so be gentle. But I have a few comments.

One, it's Missouri State. That SMS stuff is giving me flashbacks to 1991-1996.

Second, are tickets to an MU baseball game really only $5.00? Is that a common price in the SEC?

Finally, I recall a few years back MU played a game at the Rascals stadium in O'Fallon. A few exhibition games like that spread around the State would help expose more people to the program.

I'm planning on taking my son to a game here sometime soon. Even with gas prices being up, it's still affordable entertainment.

Welcome MIZZ!

I don't know about ticket prices anywhere else, but I imagine if Mizzou charged much more than that, all it would do is drive down the dismal attendance numbers we already have. They have to drive up demand for the tickets first and to do that they have to ramp up the promotion of the team and get interest levels up.

Great idea about playing at the minor league parks and what not. I'm beating a dead horse, but I also think they need to get the existing broadcast onto crappy little local AM stations or something so people outside of COMO can hear the games other than streaming them.
