After watching the product on the field the last two years, that transaction yielded a very low ROI.

The scholarship seats alone are $2600 each, so you can just imagine what the boxes cost. plus the minimum TUF donations needed. The boxes are so-so at J-H compared to some others I have been in(NCAA and Pro)


The boxes at AU are pretty lame actually. They need to be updated and have glass that can be opened.

See this is why I dont understand why they dont top the endzones at jordan-hare with suites. No doubt you could sell them out at a huge profit to offset construction costs.

I would, but we all work remotely, so I'd have to drive to Austin and swing by his house, and I don't feel like making that drive today.

That would kind of suck for a view with a suite price tag. As well as it would take a very long line to offset the cost.


FTR, decent medium to small sized suites at cowboy stadium are 500k plus the ticket cost, plus food, drink etc....

Yes, the AU suites kind of suck because you feel seperated from the gameday environment, plus they are not all that decked out inside

The North and South Endzone suites are as new as the North and South Endzone expansions - 5 and 2 years, respectively. So, yes, those suites are much nicer

Our expansion will include regular suites in the endzone and also field level suites in the endzone. From the pics, it looks like when you stand, half your body is above ground. No one really understands why anyone would want to sit there. I guess it will be more for just parties and executive gatherings. As long as they pay, I don't really care.

My inlaws have a skybox at BDS, i want to say we rent it at operating cost, which is like 30-35k a season, but to get to that point there were a few million in donations.
