Assumed they're being mailed, or do we pick them up at first game?  T-minus 4 days I have nothing?

I got mine yesterday, which is right on time as I normally get things 1 day later than those near Athens. I normally order my season tickets after the start of the season. I have always received a big envelope of normal green/white printed tickets. This year I got nice "tablet/book" of tickets that have full colored photos of players printed on them....is that what you normally get if you order before the first game?

Ryan - No they have historically been the big sheets that you tear apart.  This year they switched to the little booklet.  Pretty handy, if you ask me.  Got mine on Friday the 26th.

I like the booklets too. However - I liked the "cards" the best - one stop shop always in my wallet. Plus - easy to go online and "assign" some one else my tics for a game that they could then pick up at Will Call if I happen to not be able to make it - or just want to give to someone else and not wait around to meet in the concourse if I have multiple tics and group etc. coming.

Got mine! Love the booklets - very sharp looking designs/pictures this year too.

Anybody else read the letter about how season ticket sales were already up 50%+ over last year? Should translate to some great crowds this season. Can't wait!!!

Got mine last Saturday and seeing them did wonders for my morale after watching the football game.

Can't wait!

They came today, fear of chasing them down in the mail over.  Came wrapped in a clear paper bag courtesy of the USPS due to the package being torn open, hence the reason for the delay I assume.

I did however notice that the promised Sweet 16 DVD set was not included even though I purposefully bit for the incentive to pay early to get it.  Did anyone's package come with the Sweet 16 stuff assuming you met the deadline?

     My tix came w/ a coupon you can redeem at select games for the DVD. Also included a coupon for the glasses to be redeemed at the Portland game.

Yeah George...You should have received vouchers for the glass and the DVD, and since they are small slips of paper and you mentioned the package was torn open...I could see them getting lost along the way.

I got the tickets, though not a booklet. They were just rubber-banded stacks of plain, ordinary tickets.

Got the voucher for one glass but didn't have a DVD. I called the office, because that was also what got me to bite on the season ticket offer. When I had ordered season tickets on the phone, I specifically asked if I'd be getting the DVD if I bought seasons tickets, and they said yes.

I called the office to ask about why I didn't get the DVD, and they said they'd hold one for me at will call at the Portland game... but I'm holding my breath to see if they actually do so. I'll be a bit ticked if I don't get the DVD...

Kind of wondered since my packaged was torn open if the postal workers looked through to grab themselves a ticket to a home game of their choosing.  When I checked, I confirmed all tickets were there and none had been taken.  I then realized the attractiveness of our home schedule was as attractive to them as it was to me and hence they didn't take any  :)

No one actually got a DVD in the mail - just the voucher. The voucher indicated that there would be a table at each of the first 4-5 games (starting with Mercyhurst) to pick up your DVD. I'm sure you'll get one...

He was saying he didn't get the voucher.  I know for me, I think it said something about renewing by a certain date to get he DVD (August?).  Perhaps you missed, or they think you missed, that date.

Since CG gave out 3,000 chicken sandwiches last night at Peden, I'll bet someone in the OBC can hook him up with a DVD.  After I watch mine, I'll trade your for a sandwich and a peach milkshake.

I was just about to post the same thing...not to mention the sandwiches he did last year at the basketball game....I think they could hook George up by burning him another DVD.

BTW George, I hope you get some props from HQ for that...Chick-fil-a got a mention on ESPNU's broadcast about the give-away and the announcers mention they were happy to get a sandwich.

All is good and despite my package not having a certificate for the DVD, word got to a member of the Marketing Dept without my knowing or asking and a DVD was handed to me last night.  Second mile service by them and much appreciated.  Looking forward to popping it in this weekend and enjoy some great memories!

Finally, one things I leared last night is the Ohio Student love their Bobcats and love their Chick-fil-A!  My goodness were they excited to get their hands on those sandwiches.

Agreed. Big thanks to you for helping the cause with those sandwiches. Last night's giveaways were the only thing that salvaged it from being an embarrassing crowd.

Now, if only all of the students would have STAYED and went into the stadium. I went over by the student park pregame and saw the huge lines. I was appalled, though at the number that took their sandwich and hat - and then proceeded to head home! If everyone went into the stadium, that student section would have been packed.

So I've got "Bobcat Black" seats. Paid a lot for them. Haven't received anything...no tickets, no notification to pick them up...nothing.

Black seats were hand delivered last night to me in Peden. If you're coming to the BG game, they'll give them to you in person. My other option was to get them in the Rohr Room before the first game.

At least you were given options. Literally, not a word from anyone.
