Got the email from UNLV today that the LA Tech game will be played at Sam Boyd and possibly ASU as well. Pretty embarrassing situation. Slightly cheaper season this year since we aren't being charged for that game though.

It is a bit embarrassing for UNLV, but it also reflects poorly on the Raiders for not being able to work this out. This should send a clear message, as if it wasn't already clear enough, that the Raiders are out for themselves and that they don't care about the local community.

Yeah, this is a two way street. Both screwed up.It is a bit embarrassing for UNLV, but it also reflects poorly on the Raiders for not being able to work this out.

If I want tickets in the same area that I've had for years, it shows that it will be $230 per season ticket when last year it was $115 per ticket. UNLV side, 40-yard line seats, one section over from the middle and we sat in the row above the portal.
2019 - $115/6 homes games = ~$19 per game.
2020 - $230/7 homes games = ~$32 per game..
Only held my season tickets for the last 3 seasons and I was always one section off from RAF, so this is new to meIt’s per seat. Always has been.
I could be reading this wrong, but...
Those also appear to have mandatory RAF donation. C111 has $75, C110 $50, C109 $40, and $25 for many (all) others. I would hope that's per a RAF donation per account and not per seat, but it is probably per seat. Not per game though.
...hopefully...
If you are in equivalent locations to last season, and didn't pay an RAF fee, then you wouldn't pay one now. I have been in RAF seats in the past, but decided to move over a little and not pay the additional fee. Considering UNLV spent a bunch of money on an attorney to make sure UNLV was treated fairly, and now we end up with 1-2 games not played at the new stadium says very little about the current AD or the law firm she hired.
Also, considering the Las Vegas stadium authority, which is completely appointed by governmental entities, it is obvious they are not doing their job and could have easily forced the issue regarding the games also being played in the stadium. http://lvstadiumauthority.com/about/index.php?memID=10
That was an Alumni Assoc right? I'm not surprised that it's gone, but it is really a bummer. If they maintained that there would actually be a shot at hitting 40k for a game this yearI think my friend figured it out. I forgot about the promotion of 2-for-1 that UNLV ran for the last several years. Apparently the custom is rescinding and continuing ignorance. Done and done.

This is the revised alumni discount for football tickets:
" Regarding UNLV Football at Allegiant Stadium, a $100 Scarlet Loyal gift designated to UNLV Athletics / Drive for 5 campaign will earn Alumni a 25% discount, on a maximum of 4 tickets, in any Lower Bowl / 100-level section excluding the VVIP Clubs. This will go into effect for the 2020 football season."
UNLV is inept. We all know that. DRF is a special type of useless.Everything that I have been told up to this point says that I still get the 2:1 on my season tickets. When I paid for tickets last season, I was told I would have the same deal this next season. If that isn't true then I need to know that now, and rethink my tickets.
Everything I have so far seen from the UNLV athletic department, has shown me they are going back to the same old screwed up athletic department we have known and loved for decades. They are ignoring things like how are we handling parking, do we pay for parking, where are we going to play the Arizona State game (it appears that due to a screwed up AD and attorneys that represented UNLV we will definitely not play the Tech game at the new stadium)? They don't even know yet if we are going to be allowed to attend the games, but they want us to pay for the tickets, what are the plans if we are not allowed to attend?
They have made a lot of effort to sell the tickets, but none to keep us informed about what is going on?
Even then you could sit 6-feet apart and still have room to spareThe good news is that 10,000 fans at SBS looks better than 10,000 in a 65,000 seat stadium.
The Mack, Boyd - where social distancing is a tradition.Even then you could sit 6-feet apart and still have room to spare
Yeah, Id prefer playing at Gorman to Sam Boyd. And that’s being serious.I take it I'm the only one happy about thiis....
I am absolutely happy.I take it I'm the only one happy about this....
by the way, has anybody received seat selection email yet? They said they intended on beginning on 4/27 with emails going out a week before. I'm Group #1, but not sure how deep into G1 I am.
I take it I'm the only one happy about this....
I don’t have a problem with SBS but I am not happy they’re playing there next year. The stadium should have been mothballed. For an athletic department that’s struggling I’m pissed they’re going to be putting more money into maintenance and operations to get the place game ready. I personally don’t think UNLV should spend another cent on that place. They should have done that land swap with the County to link the Trop 42 with the main campus and dumped that stadium.
I'm still wondering about this. Anybody get their email?
I had 4 last season so if I was going to buy more than 4 each additional ticket is 25% off.
If that's the case I need to call back.I thought it was regardless of how many you had last year, only up to the first 4 tickets would be 25% off?
The UNLV Alumni discount has been modified for the 2020 football season. All active Scarlet Loyal UNLV Alumni members can purchase football season tickets at a 25% discount off the regular price (applies to both ticket amount and priority amount). Scarlet Loyal members must designate a minimum $100 alumni contribution to the Athletic Department and receive the discount on season tickets. The Alumni discount is available in lower bowl 100-level price levels, excluding the VVIP Club and Suites. See below for prices. Limit of four (4) discounted season tickets per account/household.
UNLV Rebel Football (at Allegiant Stadium) - Alumni and lifetime members designate a $100 contribution to UNLV Athletics / Drive for 5 campaign and receive a 25% discount (max 4 tickets) in any Lower Bowl /100-level section excluding the VVIP Club sections.
I specifically asked about that alumni price of 25% off and there does not seem to be overlap between what we pay as "faithful fans" with regard to alumni status... I was told the faithful fan price was cheaper than the alumni price if you make that $100 donation for drive for 5. As though the faithful fans won't get 25% off as alumni.Nice how they left out these increase in prices when the told everyone they would be able to keep the lower price! Whoops we didn't tell you that 2:1 is gone.
So the faithful fan pricing goes from $266 for two tickets last year to $560 for two tickets? So you will pay a priority fee of $50 for each ticket and $230 for the tickets each?
From what I can read, It appears if you want to get 25% off as alumni, you pay another $100 drive for 5 donation to get a total of $115 of the price of the tickets, which effectively is almost a wash with the price going down from $560 to $545? Still don't even know where we will park, and if we will be charged a parking fee also?
Would love for clarification? If this is truly the price, I would have saved my money last year.
