<sad to say it> but, thanks. The tickets my family held since season tickets were first offered, were denied us after my parents died. Still bitter about it since we and our sons had always sat there. I mostly hate it for the sons and losing that tradition.

When JJ told me he had done 'all he could, but that others deserved to sit there' and that 'the last person that skipped priority to get better seats donated $250k to the university' I was done. You know, priority resides with a person, so we lost that...the one year, back in the early 1990's when Auburn offered to legacy tickets, my father decided to not do it because he thought the process would continue. No such luck.

So, if anyone has tickets that have been in their family forever, forget about keeping them after the person whose name they are in dies. Unless you want to buy your way into keeping them for a cool few hundred thou, you are SOL.

Anyway, with 7 degrees in our family (and almost 1 more), and a history that goes back to 1926 when Daddy went to API to play football, we will always be Auburn fans. But, as you say, there are better ways to spend the money than on the football monopoly.

Cheers!
