Learned today that at Bama the only sport you must pay to attend is football. Kids got 4 games (B package) including two SEC games (Tenn and Ark) for $80.00. Stupid cheap. They offer A and B like we used to for hoops. (Not sure of current state at IU)

All tickets on phone so can't scalp and can't find someone to buy other package from. Must turn unused into lottery to get reimbursed or lose $$. May be same at IU now. Not sure.

All other sporting events can be attended by students at NO CHARGE! Hoops, women's gymnastics, baseball, track and field. You name it, it's free.

Thought it was cool and wanted to share. Go Hoosiers!
 
Sounds like heavy booster dollars
Correct! Plus 60% of students out of state. 3 times tuition doesn't hurt for 60% but yes, big money but not necessary big $$ boosters but more like many people make it a hobby and spend vacation money. My yard guy and family rent an apartment year round just for football and they live 3.5 hours away. Crazy fan devotion.
