Pitt emailed me a week or so ago about single game ticket availability. Even though we've heard rumors of ticket sales being staggeringly slow, Pitt is still charging $25 for a single game seat at thrillers like Montana or Towson.
WVU single games seats are $90 in the upper level! I've traveled to WVU when both teams were good and I didn't pay nearly that much. That's crazy.
A weekday conference game like BC was $45.
I get that some of this price sensitivity is because they can't totally undercut the pricing structure they already assigned to season ticket holders, but this is ridiculous. Why would anyone pay $45 for a game like BC when the market price for that will probably be like $10, and that's not even considering how little interest there could be in the team by February.
The attendance situation could get really, really bad this year.
