Playoff Ticket Price......

Since I fork out $60.00 for a Titans game...this seems like a very good bargain.

I agree.

Ticket Break Down

50% ($3.50) goes to the TSSAA

25% ($1.75) goes to Home School

25% ($1.75) goes to Visiting School

$7.00 to watch the ballgame of my choice for the next few Friday nights = A TRUE BARGAIN!!

 

I mean after buying a pair of season tix to watch my beloved Vols, a couple of HS play-off tix at $7.00 each seems like a steal.

7 bucks.

Plus $3.00 to park if you go to a certian school.. Unless you want to walk a long ways. Inflate the concession prices, but not pay to park. You would make more money and not anger folks. Folks hate to pay to park.....Nuf said

All cuts are of gross proceeds.

 

Let's say a 2A playoff game has 4000 in attendance and say that's just avg. for each playoff game.

 

28,000 total = 14,000 TSSAA + 7,000 HOME + 7,000 AWAY

 

If every 2A playoff game averaged that, then throughout the entire 2A playoffs the TSSAA would make 14,000 * 31 games = $434,000 for just the 2A bracket. Not bad for 5 weeks of football .

Let's take it a step further.

1A average attendance is 1000. TSSAA makes 108,500

2A average attendance is 2000. TSSAA makes 217,000

3A average attendance is 3000. TSSAA makes 325,500

4A average attendance is 4000. TSSAA makes 434,000

5A average attendance is 4000. TSSAA makes 434,000

 

Total money TSSAA gets for 5 weeks is $1,519,000.

 

 

And that is being generous on the attendance figures.

Unbelievable.

How much of that does the good ole T$$AA get?

From the TSSAA website:

 

At the March 16, 1995, Board of Control meeting there was a recommendation from the Board of Control Finance Committee regarding expenses concerning football playoffs. The formula to be used beginning this year is as follows; 25% of gross to host team; 25% of gross to visiting team, 50% of gross to TSSAA. The host school will be responsible for on-site expenses out of their 25% and the visiting school will be responsible for traveling expenses out of their 25%. TSSAA will be responsible for game officials, line-to-gain crew, tickets, awards, and catastrophic insurance for all schools out of their 50%.
