Ticket Cost?

[WBGradFan]

What is the cost to get into the games? Does anyone know if William Blount is charging for parking this year?

I don't know about up there, but I think it's going to be $7 to enter and $2 to park when the Govs come down to Ooltewah.

Ultimately yes, it is up to the individual schools. However, if the TSSAA keeps raising their percentage that they "TAKE" from each ticket what are schools to do?

 

I had no clue that this went on, but someone told me last year that each school has to pay the TSSAA a set fee, or dues, each year. They said 5A schools paid over $1500. Do the math on that guys. Then they take a percentage of the gates. Where does this money go? Schools are responsible for paying officials for each game (out of the gate money), so what do they do with that money?

 

Just curious.

Still just $5 dollars at Rhea Co. and then the band charges $2 to park.

$1 of Hamilton County ticket prices goes to pay the coaching supplements for all sports.

Makes me thankful that at Oakland, ive never had to pay for parking, and frankly, dont feel like I need to.

I am not so sure that the quality of high school football is higher in Illinois than Tennessee. Illinois has a higher population base than Tennessee but overall the teams are not a good. With regards to the ticket price, just what is the cost of attending a movie in your area? If kids have enough $$$$$ to attend a movie they have $7.00 to attend their high school football game. In most metropolitian areas it cost $9.50+ for adults to attend a movie.
