Don't talk to me about tickets. Unless you are a member of the President's Club at Ohio State (something like $5000 per year), you can't get season tickets no matter when you apply for them. Even with 105,000+ seats, a ticket in the 'shoe is a coveted item at nearly $70 per ticket.
Lifetime Members (alumnae who have paid something like $1500) are entered into a lottery for 2 tickets to only 1 game. I'm a Lifetime Member and several times was closed out of the lottery completely. For the past 5 years, while I was awarded tickets, I received crappy non-conference games.
To apply for the Lottery, you must first get an invitation and send your money in by May 1. You don't know until mid-Summer if or which game you have tickets. My dad, aunt and I always are in the lottery with hopes we get 3 different games.
