The deadline for Terrapin Club members to renew their football season tickets is June 1st and is fast approaching.  In a conversation with a fellow season ticket holder we discussed the price of football tickets and their high cost of $41.71 per game.   As sporting event tickets go in this town I would say they are a good value, if you don’t mind a few losses here and there.  Redksins and Wizards tickets have got to be near $100 per game.  I know the good seats are significantly higher.  With the success of the caps I’m sure they aren’t cheap anymore.  The Orioles and Nationals can be seen for a very reasonable price.  You can purchase upper level seats for under $30.  The Nats even have tickets for $14 on Sundays and that includes a drink and a hotdog! 

I wanted to compare season ticket prices around the ACC and this is what I found quickly searching the internet.  As a reference, MD football is $292 per seat but remember that doesn’t include Terrapin Club dues and parking.  I’m assuming most schools have some kind of club fee and parking as well. 

Miami- Lower level starts at $199

Wake- From $120

UNC- $270

BC- Lower level $245

NCST- $305 plus additional fee of min $120

Clemson- Sold out but can buy through broker starting at $475

GT- $260 plus fee of $75 to $475 depending on seat location

FSU- $321

UVA- $270

Duke- $200

VT-Sold Out but found at broker for as little as $549

Duke is the bargain here but you  aren’t paying for many wins.  Clemson and VT are pricey but you get what you pay for there.
