I received my renewal today for my two seats (Sec 103, Row 9, Seats 1&2), which reminded me Iām just not interested in keeping these anymore. No idea if there is a demand for these, so $500 for both OBO.
Attached is my renewal form just to help confirm Iām not a crook. PM me if you are interested.
I canāt figure out how to send a DM on here. Iām gonna check with Dan D with athletics about how to do a transfer but yes, I agree with that price.
Thanks for the interest, everyone. The FSLās have been sold. Was a pleasure being a co-owner since the beginning, but best wishes to all of you and the program.
Dmastinsc, did you have to pay a $300 transfer fee? I have 2 FSLs in Section 104 Row 5 from original sale that I havenāt renewed season tickets and planning on just walking away and letting go altogether.
For me, itās just a perfect storm of reasons. In no particular order, NIL rules changing student-athletes into basically minor league or semi-pro players, transfer rules making student-athletes more or less free agents for whatever school they want to leave for, and injection of politics into sports and divisiveness on both sides of fan base in what is supposed to be a unified fan base cheering for Charlotte. Just not enjoyable for me anymore.
The last straw was probably having COVID and how that changed my life priorities to where sports just arenāt that important and family is my first priority.
Thanks I appreciate it! I did plan on keeping my BB tickets as that has always been my passion as far as sports. I was thinking of walking away when Sanchez was retained but just canāt get myself to completely give up hope although any sane or rational person would have after the past 16 years
I get all the reasons and if it werenāt for tailgating my interest level would be even lower. I am pretty much the definition of what I used to hate, a fair weather fan. If weāre good, hooray, if not, eh Iām fine.
Pretty much the same for me at this point. I no longer make it a priority to go to or watch games. If I have nothing else going on sure Iāll tune in, but Iām not going to bother attending at this point unless we are good at something.
Iāll probably hit a baseball game or two this year, probably the same for football next year for the Maryland and USC games, but bball is dead to me until something changes.
I understand why people are questioning the issues above. I get it. But feel the same way as you Nirvana, Never miss a football game (wanted it for too long) but wished I lived closer for baseball. 3.5 hours round trip is pretty tough⦠Even with my green tinted glasses, I have trouble watching this style of basketball⦠and am not sure I would make the effort unless major changes happen.
Iāve been on the fringe, at best, the last couple years. This past year with the disappointing football season followed by a very disappointing basketball season, finally left me asking āwhyā when I got my renewal notice. That was a first for me.
Itās been 23 years since I sat in Halton as a student wondering how in the world we just beat #3 Cincinnati. That was my high as a Niner fan and thereās hardly been a single thing thatās compared since that night.
Selling my FSLās today hit harder than I expected, but I honestly canāt say Iāll feel that loss for long, which is even more sad. I can only hope for the programās sake that I have a reason to regret it in the next couple decades.
However, since most of you donāt know this, my major contribution to the program, and the thing Iām most proud of and will always cherish, was my contribution to removing Judy Rose.
FireJudyRose.com was mine as well as the online petition that got something like 2,500 signatures. She resigned 30 days or so after both of those launched, so Iāll always be happy knowing I helped the program move on from that tired administration.
I hope the Niners somehow find their way back to relevance sooner than later so all that work was not in vain. Until then, good luck and best wishes Niner Nation.
