If you really are willing to give more money to get better seats then why not just buy better tickets each game on stubhub or ksl.com?

I have Prime Endzone, have had them for 7 years running, request lower seats EVERY year, and have moved one time in those 7 years. Will be in my same seats for the 5th season running. They are good seats, but I'd love to be about 10 rows lower. Demand is high, as are renewals, so no place to move. I even tried the Cougar Club membership approach last year to see if it would help, but it didn't. So that incentive went away this year for me.



As for ticket prices, BYU tickets are still a huge bargain. My season ticket worked out to be $20 for each game, and that is a pittance compared to other places like Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State, SEC schools, and even Boise State. Last thing I will ever complain about is ticket prices. BYU could double them easily and they would still be fairly priced.

They make up for it with their $10 hotdogs/$15 burgers. Their sodas are $4-$5 and that's without the caffeine. If you want/have to have caffeine, you gotta do your own moonshinning and smuggle it in. Then spike it with a lemonade so you won't get caught.



Dang Word of Wisdom anyways...

Maybe my memory is just failing me (or taking me back to an earlier era), but I thought their hot dogs were only 3.50/4.00...

You have obviously never been to LES.



A "Cougar Dog" is $2.50. A bigger polish dog is $3. Drinks are about $2, they often have souvenir cups for $3 or $3.50. I've never bought any of the food from the restaurant booths that come in, but from what I've seen, things like Burritos and Pizzas tend to go for about $5 - $10 per serving.



And besides that, most of the concessions are fund raising areas for local youth groups.



I've been to arenas all across the west, and I've never gotten into one, nor eaten at one as reasonably priced as the Cougars.

I agree. I don't remember exact prices but I've had Rebel Dogs, Ram Dogs, Falcon Dogs and Charger (SDSU) Dogs and Cougar Dogs are by far the cheapest around. Charger Dogs were the priciest, it was like 5 bucks or something.



BYU Polish Dogs are so good. I have 2 at every game.

My only real complaint about LES food is the Freschetta pizza. They ought to pay fans for eating that cardboard crap. I miss the good old days of real (Pizza Hut?) slices.

LOL... I couldn't stop laughing! You hit the nail on the head.



As for my original comment on the prices. Apparently my sarcasm didn't come across the way I wanted.
