for comparison the Orioles are the hottest ticket in town right now. $65 gets you 22 games(every home game in August and September) so almost $5.91 a game. Those are basically student night prices back in 2014. This includes some t-shirt and bobble head giveaways

Towson has to do SOMETHING to draw a crowd

Is it just me or does anybody else yawn when they see the home slate of games this year?

-Morgan State

-William & Mary

-Stonybrook

-Hampton

-North Carolina A&T

for $90 are these 5 games worth my time and money? At first I thought no…but wait…there’s more!

here are new benefits for the purchase of a 2024 football season ticket.
           --You will also get 10 complimentary tickets to other Towson ticketed sporting events, including men's/women's basketball, volleyball, gymnastics or men's lacrosse.
            --There are several other benefits, including getting 15% off at the Towson UStore and on gameday concessions.

with 10 free basketball tickets and 15% off beer and hot dogs now that’s worth the money!

Smart move

Gold rush I’m assuming they are giving out a T-shirt, but what’s the promo for family, homecoming, hometown hero, and senior day?

Dr. E you better get some floppy bucket hats or Hawaiian shirts made asap!

I remember crab chips and a coke was a promo to draw the kids in once, need to do something to get the college kids to make the walk all the way to south campus 

perhaps if DP dough ever re-opens they could give out free calzones? Ledo pizza maybe swoops in and steals the idea

maybe Kona ice can roll up with some free snow cones?

Maybe super rich Pete, Pat, and Shawn dip into their own pockets for football, basketball, lacrosse jersey giveaways? Buy some fans if you have to!

August 31st is approaching quickly.  
This is the most excited I’ve been for Towson football in a long time. 
Give me a player deserving of me buying his gear this season?  I got Hunter sweatshirt last year.

at first glance you see 9 and go, "Wow that's low", but then you realize there are 16, SIXTEEN! teams. Not a good sign when 2 and 5 are on the way out the door. Also, not playing Delaware hurts. Isn't this their last season?

Just a quick observation that UNH is picked two spots ahead of us when last year’s starting QB left for Minnesota. They must think highly of the kid who’s replacing him. They were also a fairly mediocre team last season. I wonder what’s changed to make them the projected #7 team. 
 

I don’t put a ton of stock into any of this really.
