Memphis Considers Football Preferred Seating Plan
Despite struggling on the field and in the stands, the University of Memphis is considering a preferred seating plan that would require donations for the most attractive seats. The plan could raise approximately $600,000 per year for the Tigers.
The per-seat plan will include all of the approximately 1,600 box seats, in addition to lower sideline sections between the 10-yard lines, lower end zone sections and mid-sideline sections 117 to 123 on the east side and 101 to 108 on the west side.
Under the per-seat plan, about 75 percent of the current season-ticket accounts would pay less than $250 to retain their locations. As of last week, season-ticket sales had surpassed 20,000.
