Maybe Shaw sets the ticket prices, but I doubt it.
come sit on the sunny side in 134, no annual required donation (yet) and our seats (with alumni discount) were ~$51/seat/game. STH since 1982.
Actually, that's exactly what my wife and I did. Same section you mention [134] in seats that are the mirror image of what we formerly had on the shady side [Row P]. STH for 60+ years [technically, legacy STH since my folks had the tickets before me]. However, my two older brothers [who live farther away] decided not to, as, I'm sure, a large number of others in our old section decided as well. Every game, I stare over at the empty seats where we used to sit...
And, as I'm sure you've noticed, Section 134 is not at all like our old "shady side" section, which was pretty much all Stanford fans. This season, we were surrounded in many [most?] of the games by large numbers of opposing fans, culminating with the incredibly obnoxious U.N.D. fans [and that foul-mouthed jerk I mentioned in a post after that game]. Even for the Northwestern game, there were several rows of Northwestern fans down lower in the section.
