We get free tickets to every sporting event.

Do some schools really charge their students to tickets to any games, or am I being leveled?

are you serious?
Illinois has charged for football and men's basketball during the entire 10 year span I've lived in Champaign.

It's ridiculously cheap compared to the public tickets, however.

Football was $11/game last year for sideline seats from the 40 to the 30. The tickets are only $10/game this year, but they are moving the students from their traditional seats (since 1926) to the new North End Zone reconstruction. Students are getting hosed. FWIW, the regular mainstands seats are $29 a ticket for most games, $34 for premium---quite a steal. However, it requires donations to the athletic scholarship fund to get good seats (between the 20s).

For basketball, student tickets are also $10-$11 per ticket for home games and face value for nuetral court games (Mizzou, United Center, tourney games) that have a student allotment. There is quite a backlog for student bball tickets and not everyone who applies gets them over the past 4-5 seasons.

I'm amazed that other schools have been giving this stuff for free. I got hosed.
