Este. Anyone know when the leftover tickets go on sale? Sorry if I missed it.

I called the ticket office last week about extra zeroU tickets. They said end of August they’d send an email out if any are available.

This is pretty typical. It doesn’t always make it through season ticket holders buying extra to get released to general public.

Do those tickets always get bought out by season ticket holders, or do some tickets ever make it to public sale? 

I grabbed a couple tickets for a buddy yesterday. Section 113 row 25 were the "best available". $175 face

Yeah, it’s a little scary hitting the order button without having any idea of what seats you’re going to get.

I agree, luckily they are tickets for my sister. My seats are 50 yd line.

No. I got some in 2017 in public sale.  I don't even think we sold out our allotment in a couple of the Charlie years.

Awesome. Thanks! I'll keep an eye on this thread to see when/if they go on sale. I did the season ticket thing again last year after a long time without them. Not doing that shit again. If I only go to one game a season, I want it to be Texas-ou.

Was anyone able to buy more tickets this morning? It wouldn’t let me request any.

I tried right at 10am, got put in a virtual lobby which ended about 10 minutes later.  Whatever tickets they made available sold out really quickly

Just downloaded my tickets for this week to apple wallet but when I try to send to others in my group my wallet says sharing tickets not allowed by merchant.  Anyone else have this issue? Would rather not spend 1/2 day tomorrow on hold with the ticket office.

Screenshot the ticket and send it to your friends that way. They can scan the screenshot.

Yes.  But when I open the ticket in my wallet there’s no sharing option available.

Try restarting your phone.

If you got them from Texas you can just transfer them to the email address of your friend through the texassports online ticket office.

Your friend will need an account. Then they can download them to their Apple Wallet

I think the only official way to transfer them is directly through the UT app or website, not from apple wallet.

But I do think screenshots will work just fine.

Just fyi, at the Moody Center for Kevin Hart, they issued electronic tickets that won't work as a screenshot. There was some kind of bar scanning back and forth across the barcode, which I guess has to show up in order for the ticket to work. Looked kinda like a copy maching scanning back and forth continuously. I dunno if that was just for Kevin Hart, or if it's a Moody Center thing, and if it might be something coming down the pipe for all UT tickets.

This move to all electronic ticketing sucks ass.

Game tickets are basic QR codes nothing fancy like the kevin hart ones. They are just like the ones from last season. I just checked mine

Thanks! Only transferred tickets once last year and you’re correct, have to do it through the UT app. Worked this time! 

Welp, according to the ticket site, all of our Texas - ou tickets are sold out. So .... furk.

Just curious. What is Tx-ou face value this year?

  • 6 months later...

Anything new this year for season ticket renewal? I feel like there is always some wrinkle or window or special time slot they add and I never see it.

I have been a season ticket holder for 7-8 years now and never really paid attention to the loyalty points.  Well finally logged into my account with the expectation to see all the points I accrued over the years.  Well I finally clued into the fact UT only calculates points based upon what you spend in a single year (excluding the single point you get for every year you are a season ticket holder).  So yeah, I'll always have shitty Tx-OU tix and no access to bama tix this year

It’s based on cumulative donations since 1986.  A certain number of points for each $100 in addition to the 1 point for each year.

Not from what I've read, maybe I'm interpreting it incorrectly but the only carry over seems to be the number of years someone has been a season ticket holder

Heres what I see:

The website isn’t very clear but you are reading it incorrectly. I have sections in mine that include points earned before 2015 for example (they changed the way you earn them that year).

Falling further down the Loyalty Points ranking is inevitable unless you really open your pocketbooks for the categories other than Annual Fund Seat-related Gifts.

Using the Priority Points Calculator, I could donate $1,000 each to the Longhorn Excellence, Endowment Gifts, and Capital Projects Gifts ($3,000 total if my maths is right) to earn the 150 points necessary to regain the approximate ranking I had last year.

UT Loyalty Points punishes the truly loyal, longtime fans in favor of newer donors. I said 25 years ago that UT should have started indexing the annual contributions like aggy does (or was doing in the 90s) because Bellmont would eventually tire of giving people the same seats for the same old donation.

I have at one family member who has donated $5,000/year for 30+ years. If I donated $2,000 plus the $3,000 in my example above, I would pass them up in Loyalty Points while my cumulative giving would be way less. This has not gone unnoticed, and this family member vows to write UT out of their will. Even if they don’t, they won’t leave as much and won’t be playing the Loyalty Points game.

I know I won’t be playing. If I ever fall below the level necessary to get CFBP tickets or Texas-OU seats in the shade, I’ll probably just scalp tickets. I won’t give up my season ticket seats, though. That would be letting The Man win.

I have been a season ticket holder since 2007.  I pay only the price for the tickets.  Last year my seats got moved (downgraded from north end zone to southeast corner).  The price has continually gone up.  The increase this year was in the face of a much worse home schedule compared to last year. I enjoy the games but eventually they will break me.  I understand they are only increasing my price because there are other people willing to pay more, which is surprising considering how crummy our teams have been over the last 12 years.  I wish loyalty was worth something but am not surprised they don’t value it.

I suppose the only part that really gets to me is that they call them “loyalty” points, when anyone can literally just buy them and step in front of longer term supporters.  That’s like, the opposite of loyalty.

Which is a major reason why I am much less emotionally vested in sports teams these days.

Shocked at how much better the N Endzone was compared to sec 31. 

Anyone else having trouble with the online renewal process?  I have tried several times over the last week or so, and always hit some dead end: "unable to process the request", "this site cannot be reached", etc.   One time I got as far as the checkout screen before it crapped out.

I had to call the ticket office to order my season tickets. I had already made my LHF donation, but the website wouldn’t let me continue to checkout because I deleted a duplicate LHF contribution that was prefilled in the cart. The response I got seemed to indicate I wasn’t the only one who had this problem. 

Yeah something was messed up in the system. When I did my renewal yesterday, I had to manually input the seat gift amount. Usually it's automatically filled in and you can't edit it. I knew the amount required so just put it in, but I imagine that has been causing a lot of confusion.

I think my new LHF guy is the worst fucking handler ever. This is the type of shit they’re normally proactive with in regard to outreach. 

Deadline is June 1 so no real rush. Odd that they rolled it out on Good Friday when staff probably wasn’t even on duty.
