OboroTitanFan Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 As a current season ticket holder, I am curious. How many of you are renewing your tickets? How many are letting them go? Personally, I am on the fence. First, let me say that I am and forever will be a Titan fan. Season tickets or not does not determine my fandom. I live two hours away from Nashville. So a typical game day starts around 7:00 am and ends around 7-8:00 pm for me. After "X" amount of dollars for tickets, a tank of gas, food, drinks, ect., an average game day cost anywhere from $250-$300. The current state of the franchise, makes me wonder if it is really worth it for me to renew. If I lived in or a lot closer to Nashville, I would be a lot more apt to renew. Less time=less money. It bothers me that I am even at this point. I have invested a lot of time and money in them the past 8 years. I just wanted to see if there were any other season ticket holders in the same situation.

eastsidefan Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I'm on the fence as well. It's getting harder and harder to write that check. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
home run throwback Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I'm not a season ticket holder but I do frequent most of the home games throughout the season. This is just my opinion but I feel like a vanilla GM/HC hire is gonna drive a lot of people away. I would hope AAS & Co. realize how big of a hire this is and the stamp it's going to leave on this franchise and their fans, whether it be good or bad. I can't say I will be jumping ship myself but I will be more inclined not to care or even go to games anymore if they don't get this right. Extreme apathy will be wide spread across this entire fan base. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I don't have them, and I don't live in TN. BUT, our future is bright because of our QB. You guys are overrating the HC thing. Doesn't matter. GM is important, but I think Beddingfield actually could do well. Not my first choice. I like Ballard and his magic scruff! But the key to a good NFL team is the QB. Everything is about Mariota, and as long as he keep progressing, we WILL be good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanstattoo25 Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I am sure I will renew no matter the outcome, just being honest. I plan to have tickets until I'm gone or financially it doesn't work anymore. HOWEVER this is the first time I've ever given strong consideration to selling (or trying to) the tickets for the year. I want nothing to do with Mularkey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TF_Titan Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I'll renew because at worst I can sell my tickets. They're good enough to still be in demand...at least for ticket brokers. What happens over the next 12 months will determine whether or not I continue to renew them in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number9 Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I sold mine last season for a profit above my PSL cost. I had regrets when they drafted MM. After a few games, I was glad I finally did. It was hard the two previous seasons to renew. After a year, I honestly would not take them back for free if I had to agree to buy 10 tickets per seat per season. The costs of seats in much more than the face value. Twenty percent of the season ticket cost is for games that are not NFL games. The organization takes advantage of it's fans. They sold the season ticket holders tickets to premium games before the season started in 2014. I found out after I bought some that they had charged a premium to PSL holders. How can you trust a business that takes advantage of it's most loyal customers? Closed gates on game day caused PSL holders to have to stand in line and miss the kickoff. They had received the money for the game and sufficient staff to man the gates. They wanted a little extra money so they saved what they would have paid adequate staff. The team is worth over 1.5 billion dollars. I don't do business with people who try to take advantage of me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you acquire these PSLs eight years ago or have you had them from the start? If just the last eight years, I feel for you man. That's a tough stretch of seasons to experience in person. My family sold ours in 2010. It was a sad day, but we didn't live in the area anymore and my brother and I weren't in a financial position to buy them off my dad. But it was the right move. The team hasn't shown they're going in the right direction. We'll see what happens. They're at a fork in the road and, depending on their choices, could end in absolute joy or continued misery.

SpLeEnBeAnS Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 day one season ticket holder here. Myself as well as others involved are watching this process and how it plays out. The way it ends up has a big impact on how we decide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought them eight years ago. Started out up top in 318 and about 3 years ago had a chance to move down to 146. Had to pay difference in PSLs, but thought it was an investment. Guess the joke is on me.......ha ha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope things work out for you and this team gets back to winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lower bowl and the loge are the real value seats. If you renew, you may be able to get better seats. Upgrade as much as you can. If they start winning the prices will come back.
