Marketing Idea For Hoops

[utep*miner]

For the most part we can assume attendance will not be great this year. It will be the same thing as years past. Numbers will be low and the famous marketing dept. at UTEP will over 1/2 price seats in certain sections. And guess what? The numbers do not increase.

So Mr. Senter, let's introduce El Pasoan's to the Miners and the Don.

From here on out lets do something outside of the box to fill this place up. You never know. Players play harder when in front of a crowd.

Let's charge 10 bucks a seat from here on out. 5 bucks a kid if you want. If there was a way to preserve the seating of the season ticket holders it would be great to charge these prices for general admission and first come first serve.

Here is a chance to introduce new fans to the Miners Basketball world. And you know what, when this group is healthy they can win! What better than having a full house for these guys. We need to get behind them. They have done nothing wrong.

Remember the excitement of the girls a few years back.

I don't see where this could go wrong!!!

Tickets are $8 so not sure why you want to charge $10.

Maybe try selling a huge amount of $5 tickets then.

It would be better than having nothing but empty orange seats.

Have Phil Johnson spend an hour during lunch on campus handing out tickets to students. Try something new!

I agree, make every ticket in the house $5 for every unsold seat and just make them reserved to make it easier.

Give out something at every game or have a promotion at every game.
