<p>How does it work? Do you have to buy them all individually, do they sell season tickets for students? Do I have to camp out every weekend? Does being an incoming freshmen hinder my chances of getting the tickets (like a lottery system that favors upperclassmen) Hows it work, from anyone that has done it.</p>
<p>You buy a season ticket. They go on sale in June/July. You’ll need to watch for the announcement, and then make sure you’re online at the designated day/time so you can buy yours before they sell out. I believe last year it was around $275 for the season ticket. There are a certain number of tickets set aside for each class, and each class buys their tickets on a different day, so you won’t be competing against seniors, juniors, etc. </p>
<p>You don’t get an actual (paper) ticket. The tickets are credited to your student ID, so you will swipe your ID at the entrance gate to get into the game.</p>
<p>You aren’t assigned a specific seat, so the earlier you get there, the better your seat will be. Also, it can take a very long time to get through the lines at the gate, so it is definitely a good idea to get to the stadium as early as possible.</p>
<p>related to this subject, since the tickets are on a student id, is there any possible way to bring someone like a visiting friend to a game? would they be able to sit in the student section?</p>
<p>Yes, you can bring a friend to the game, but there’s a whole process you need to go through in advance - plus it will cost you around $30 extra (in addition to the cost of the ticket itself). </p>
