I got that notice, but it also said if you were renewing to ignore that memo since we would get another email in January. I just haven't seen anything yet.We got a notice to make early deposit if we want to ...... blah blah.
Apropos of nothing else, but why is the ACC so behind other conferences in announcing schedules? The SEC and BIG get their schedules out in Sept/Oct the year before.I would guess that they wouldn't come out until after the ACC has announced our schedule on January 30th, iirc.
We have work schedules, vacation time, etc not to mention many of us travel some distance & need hotel rooms, etc to organize attendance at games. GT and the ACC are clueless. I guess when you're driving 30 mins from UNC to Dook and then fighting the 3 Dookies attending their football games for the best parking space it makes no difference what weekend your game is on.Apropos of nothing else, but why is the ACC so behind other conferences in announcing schedules?

Also the TECH fund donation will be reduced for 75% of seats.
This is unusually forward thinking from GTAA. to Batt.AJC reporting major percentage of seats will see a price drop!

Football is such an emotion-driven game that if you surprise the players with 70,000 gold shirts in the Benz for the opener against Louisville, that can even lead to better results (crowd noise and other home field advantage aspects non-withstanding).I agree. I can't hope but look forward to a day when the product we put on the field can command premium ticket prices. But for now, butts in seats are the important thing. Here's hoping it actually makes a difference.
