New Football Season Ticket Options are Now Available

May 14, 2010

 

COLLEGE STATION, Texas - Several new football season ticket options are available for the upcoming 2010 Texas A&M home football schedule to be played at Kyle Field.

"We really appreciate our loyal season ticket holders here at Texas A&M," Director of Athletics Bill Byrne said. "We have remained among the Top 20 in the country in attendance figures, but there appears to be a perception that our games are always sold out. That is not the case. We have several new ticket options including a Family & Friends Zone. Our recent graduates may not be able to purchase tickets in the Zone Club, but we want to help enhance their Kyle Field experience with a new area called McFerrin's."
               
The Family & Friends Zone is located in the south end zone just in front of the 12th Man TV and is available with a tiered pricing structure to a maximum of six tickets per family. The first season ticket purchased is $250, the second is $200, the third is $150, the fourth through sixth ticket is just $100. A family of four can purchase season tickets for just $700 and no one in the stadium will be closer to the action. Approximately 2,000 seats are available in these sections and included with this package is a complimentary membership in the 12th Man Foundation.
               
"The area in the south end zone is a little more accessible for our families, especially those with younger children," Byrne said. "The Aggie football team comes running through the opening and I love to see the team giving the youngsters high fives as they come and go to the locker room."
               
For those who have graduated between the Class of 1999 and the Class of 2010, a new area called McFerrin's is an affordable place with some nice amenities located in the McFerrin Athletic Center at the southwest corner of Kyle Field.
               
"This is a great graduation present for our recent grads," Byrne explained. "McFerrin's is a game day club that takes some of the tailgate planning out of the mix with a buffet available as well as a cash bar and TV sets to watch other games and pre-game shows."
               
By purchasing tickets for McFerrin's, the seat location is the east side first deck. The package includes pre-game access (four hours prior to kick) to the air conditioned McFerrin Athletic Center for food, cash bar and televisions as well as a fast-pass entry into Kyle Field. The ticket package is $350 per seat and there is a limit of four per former student from the Classes of 1999 through 2010 and is being offered exclusively to those classes until July 1. Included with the purchase is a free one-year membership in the 12th Man Foundation.
               
For those former students who have already purchased priority tickets in other sections of the stadium, a $100 add-on will provide access to McFerrin's to mingle for the entire season. If you want to add-on for single games only, each game would be $20 per person. These options, if available, will be sold later in the summer.
               
The discounted sections of the Zone that have remained at $250 per seat have been renamed "The Flyovers" since those seated at the top of the Zone get the best view of the pre-game flyovers. The view of the game is enhanced by having a straightforward view of the big screen located at the south end of the stadium, 12th Man TV.
               
For those interested, the full priced season tickets are $399. There are sections available for the general public, Aggie Lettermen, faculty and staff areas as well as the priority seats that include a per seat tax deductible contribution with season parking.
