I have season tickets and I love my seats....however, I like to move around and see the view from other places. I liek to let other people see me and get them all riled up, etc
So, if you want to trade views for a game you have....let me know (Section 314, Row 20)
My seats are the next row behind th elast row the gets wet if it rains. I don't mind getting wet....so I will even trade ya for a game that calls for rain. Then you can stay dry! ha

26, I am going to the day sometime after the draft where you can upgrade your seats though once they see who isn't renewing.

Yeah, I love the seats....the view is great. Only one problem. The CAMERAS aren't up there..... I want to up the ante for screen time this year. I was on it a lot last year.

Are you sure about this? I have been a season ticket holder for 2 years (and on the upgrade list) and this is the first I have heard of it.
I do remember back when the stadium wasn't sold out they had an open house with seats available....not that it is sold out, I do not think they do that

The guy on the board who sold them to me (Fuzzychin) said they did that for one day giving current ones the option of upgrading and releasing their seats to be given to the waiting list people. I was told I would get a letter/phone call/email about it sometime after the draft. I will call the stadium tomorrow morning and see if I could actually get confirmation on it. If so I want yours. :)

I think your information may be inaccurate...... I distinctly remember now ONLY getting a phone call last year telling me what seats were available and it wasn;t much! Have you calle dthem yet. I was thinking of calling myself to find out what the timeframe/policy is on this
I sent in some pictures and a letter telling them what seats I would prefer....etc

I was on HBO "Inside the NFL" last year and a few of the broadcast games last year. It was a good year for me

I just called the stadium.
The lady I had spoken with said they did do that but it really depends on how many people they don't have renew their tickets. So it could be hit or miss, this year she said its doubtful but if you give them a call they will put a notice on your account offering you an upgrade at some point. Which I am sure is what you are speaking of.

actually it's not entirely true...they would hold an open house but for new season tickets, not existing ones to upgrade their seats although existing ones could attend and see if they could switch seats but back in those days the only seats left were the ones in the upper corners so they were always downgraded seats compared to the ones current season ticket holders had already.
it was a thing to try and sell season tickets, not to upgrade seats for current ticket holders. the only way to upgrade is to send in a letter and they say they put them on file....not sure how they determine who gets upgraded that way though. but at fist they said you needed to send in a letteer every year, then the last time i spoke with them they said they just put it on file so you don't have to each year...not sure which one it is they do.

This is consistent with what I have heard...... and experienced.
I got a random call as I was driving and they were like this is what we have..... and they needed a decision like NOW!!!! haha
Luckily it wasn't a hard choice as there wasnt' much available and nothing worth moving too

I doubt I will get it anyways, I just got my seats this year and just had the note put on my account to give me a call with any upgrades.
The guy I got them off of said the seats had been marked for an upgrade for sometime and never got the call so I am not going to expect anything to happen at least this season.

Will they give you a call and be like we have seats 3 rows down from you or will they just offer ones where you have to pay?
Since I just got them this year I could care less about moving into a new section and I actually liked your seats a lot when we went only if I could get lower.

I think it mainly depends on what you "requested". At least as far as I understand it.... in order to upgrade you have to mail in a letter stating that you would like to upgrade and where (what your preferences are). Last year I just sent the letter saying I wanted to upgrade. They kind of yelled at me and said I had to pick, but I never did . I got a call and they said that all that was available were a few around me, and the best was like 1 row in front of me. I think all I put on the letter was that I wanted to upgrade without paying anymore. SO, that might be why
This time I wrote a full page letter exp laing to them why they needed to give me sweet tickets and the exact locations I wanted....etc
We will see what happens

The lady at the stadium just said where was you wanting to move and I just said anywhere it doesn't matter if its a few rows down or a few sections over.
Just curious where are you wanting to move to?

I want to move down and possibly over to the right (closer to the 50). I would love to have 1st row of either level of the 300 section. And if the seats are good something in the lower level (I don't want to be in the lower level if I am 30 rows back)

I'm glad you weren't trying to get into the end zone. Thats where I thought you might have wanted to be with your Thing gear.
I don't blame you, I sat in the lower section for a game once and I was miserable. The crowd sat on their hands and the view of the field is garbage. I don't think I will ever want to leave the 300 section. The walk stinks, but the view of the field whether you are sitting at the goal line or on the 50 is top notch. I like to see the formations that are being played though. But seats are only as good as your eyes.

I found out my OSU season seats were going to be in the endzone, I sat in the same area for the spring game. They ****, I hate the end zone. I'm trying to get out of them. I like the upper deck.
