FOOTBALL TICKET PRICES LISTED FOR 2015 SEASON The days of "dynamic pricing" for Michigan football tickets are gone, and availability for individual-game football tickets is coming, according to Michigan officials. Tickets go on sale in July, and fans will know up front what they're paying. U-M officials ditched the dynamic pricing approach, which unsettled a large number of fans. In that system, the price for individual game tickets rose with the demand. "We are making the changes to our individual ticket options based on feedback from our fans," said David Ablauf, associate athletic director for football communications. "This vari- able pricing structure creates more options to accommodate the various priorities of our dedicated fans. The new pricing model was developed following fan feedback and analysis of ticket sales patterns." Season tickets remain at $455, an average of $65 per game. Individual seats are priced according to game and location. Individual-game ticket prices for the 2015 season are as follows: • Oregon State (Sept. 12) — $80 end zone, $90 Maize/Blue, $100 Vic- tors/Valiant. • UNLV (Sept. 19) — $55 end zone, $65 Maize/Blue, $75 Victors/Valiant. • Brigham Young (Sept. 26) — $80 end zone, $90 Maize/Blue, $100 Vic- tors/Valiant. • Northwestern (Oct. 10) — $75 end zone, $85 Maize/Blue, $95 Vic- tors/Valiant. • Michigan State (Oct. 17) — $95 end zone, $105 Maize/Blue, $115 Vic- tors/Valiant. • Rutgers (Nov. 7) — $65 end zone, $75 Maize/Blue, $85 Victors/Valiant. • Ohio State (Nov. 28) — $95 end zone, $105 Maize/Blue, $115 Victors Valiant.
