To Purchase Season Tickets..?

I wanted to talk a little bit about athletics here at Mizzou because they're one of the most exciting things about the university.  Almost all athletic events outside of men's football and basketball are free with an MU student ID.  In addition, MU students get great discounts for season tickets to basketball and football games.  I only purchased the football tickets because basketball isn't really my thing and here is where I tell you that was a bad idea.
BECAUSE

1. MU's inaugural SEC football season sucked.  I'm not a football expert, but I do know that the Tigers really weren't prepared for SEC football.  
2. Most tickets sell for dirt cheap the day of the game or are given away.  Don't buy the tickets unless you are a die-hard fan and you'll attend enough games to get your money's worth because selling them really isn't an option and you can just get them for free.
3. Tailgating is awesome. Let me repeat, tailgating is awesome.  It's probably the best part about game day.  The tailgating festivities go on all throughout the game and some even show the games on TV, so don't worry about missing out on any great plays.
4. Football in college is kind of boring in real life.  Games last forever and the student section NEVER sits down.  Most games are dark, rainy, and cold.

Ultimately the decision is up to you, but I'm not buying tickets next year.  As far as basketball, I've only been to a few games but they have always been fun and exciting.  Most basketball tickets go for about $5 a game right now, so if you're just in the mood to see a game and don't really care much for the big names in college bball, just buy tickets from people selling them the week of the game.  Don't worry, they'll be available.

Go Tigers!
