  • Bradley season tickets billboard

    I saw the first one on I-74 just east of the river...on one of the electronic billboards with rotating ads..
    Shows Donte Thomas and offers lower bowl season tickets for an amazingly discounted price!

    Cost?

    What was the discounted price? Is there a website that quotes these prices?

      I can't vouch for any price, that is why I removed it...but I looked and found very little in print or on the internet

          Who is that a picture of on the sweet "Champion" wall poster in the locker room? Bennet? Somerville?

            Good question...
            I think it is Cellus....
            the text seems to indicate it's someone from the 2006 team, so it would be Bennett or Cellus since the uniform number ends in 5..
            but if you look at a closeup, the tattoo on the right arm does not match Tony Bennett's and seems to resemble the one on Marcellus Sommerville's right arm.

            The text says -
            The vision of a champion is bent over, drenched in sweat
            at the point of exhaustion, when nobody else is looking.

              It looks like the #5 is centered such that it would be unlikley to be #15. So I think it is #5 Tony Bennett. I think that may be why Darrell Brown, Jr. #5 is posing in front of the picture.

                    I contacted the Bradley ticket office and was told - "We are offering the `82 Champs Special seats in sections 18, 19, and 20 in rows 1-5 (the higher part of the lower bowl) that are normally $285 each for $82 each with a donation requirement of $100 per seat, $182 total per seat."

                      That is a pretty good deal. And on the $100 "donation" part (or any maintencance donations paid to enable one to buy tickets) , the IRS allows 80% of it to be tax deductible.

                        I saw the same billboard but in a different location over by the Northwoods Mall, and it does indeed promote
                        LOWER BOWL SEASON TICKETS for as low as $82


                        so I still can't vouch for it but that's a pretty special price for lower bowl seats, that I had not seen that price quoted anywhere else.

                          All of the season-ticket information, including the info on the '82 Champs special, can be found via the Men's Basketball Season Tickets link at BradleyBraves.com. This is the direct link:



                          Been there all summer

                          And to confirm, that picture in the lockerroom is Tony Bennett immediately following the Pitt game in the 2006 NCAA tourney.
