Odd pricing at Oklahoma home games - TonyLima - 08-19-2025

Can anyone explain how OK came up with those strange prices?

´Oklahoma is offering fans a chance to attend postgame press conferences, but it won’t be cheap.

It’s one of the “ Sooner Magic Memories ” offerings the program has created to give fans greater access this season. The cost for two people to sit in on the media session after the Oklahoma-Michigan nonconference showdown on Sept. 6 is $692.11. For the Southeastern Conference home opener Sept. 20 against Auburn, it’s $576.86.

“Get exclusive postgame media access for you and one guest and see where real-time reactions unfold,” the advertisement says. “Hear OU coaches and players address reporters moments after the final whistle. Watch the story take shape through the questions, the insights, and the atmosphere that set the headlines.” ‘

I wonder how much you would have to pay people to sit through a Stanford post game presser.

How much can Stanford make charging fans for the opportunity to run onto the field with the team (extra if you want to be the flag bearer)?

Another way schools can cash in on fan fanaticism.

Okay, as a former cheerleader with Stanford, U of Cincinnati, and Universal Cheerleaders Association, I'm going to offer my 2 cents about running with the flag that pretty much nobody cares about but me, but here goes:

When you run with the flag, you need to run with your upper arm completely locked and pushed forward and the lower arm bent. By doing so, you drive the flag forward, the flag stays horizontal, and the pole bends to your power. Most flag bearers run with both arms bent so that the flag tilts at an angle and trails behind their body which makes it look like the bearer is being pulled backwards by the flag. It looks weak. 

Maybe now something can finally be done.

I will pay cash to bring back FlagMan as a regular fixture at Stanford games.

I don't remember when he was a student -- early 1990's, maybe early 2000's?

If you saw him then you know the guy I'm talking about.
