Tennessee is adding 10% Fee for Football Tickets - Maple Leaf - 09-17-2024

The increase announced Tuesday morning in an email to season-ticket holders notes a new 10% talent fee for all invoices to “help fund the proposed revenue share” for athletes and help Tennessee attract and keep the best talent. A video link features athletic director Danny White explaining the reason for the price hike per seat across Neyland Stadium.

If the library at Tennessee is short of funds I guess they could charge to check out a book, with the fee being based upon the number of pages and number of pictures (pictures will have a higher rate).

This sounds like the mandatory resort fees at hotels and other “junk fees” that outfits like Ticketmaster impose.  Tennessee should just increase ticket prices 10%.

Agreed.  I would think the courts might rule that advertising prices lower than the actual price is improper marketing.

Just raise ticket prices...I'm sure Tennessee isn't hurting for a fan base desperate to see their team play.
