Rutgers season tickets available at Costco
Presented without comment...
... and a free rotisserie chicken.
From Brandon's Lasting Lessons:
Upvoted you for relevance to the OP.
A million WD points used to downvote Dave Brandon
Where's the giant Kraft macaroni noodle?
Costo rotisserie chicken is amazing!
For us East Coasters, that is actually an awesome deal to see Michigan play @ Rutgers.
Single tickets, lower levels without parking are going over $100 a pop on Stubhub.
Can give away the rest of the tickets and you are still ahead.
Sounds like something a Bucknut would do at Michigan Stadium. Let's hope the Gers game works out better for us...lol
This was my first thought as well and why I posted it.

This isn’t a deal for season tickets — it’s a deal for two tickets to one game. The headline is inaccurate. But Michigan is one of the games that’s eligible for this package so it’s still pretty sweet.
The losses are cheaper when you buy in bulk!
But seriously, what a steal!! $50 per person for season tickets and parking?
Then again, you pay in other ways than money, namely, with your soul...
EDIT: as others are saying, this is for a single game, not season tickets. Still not a bad deal
I can’t tell if it’s two tickets, etc.. for a single home game - which would be a deal. OR, for season tickets, which would be an incredible offer.
Any chance Dave Brandon is working as an advisor / consultant for Rutgers?
It's the former. Just a decent deal.
Not a bad deal for 2 season tickets - and with parking. Worth it for their major games alone.
Don't wait too long - they'll need some good seats for recruits. I hear they like to bring them in for games against the hated Wolverines...
EDIT: D'OH!!! Replied to the wrong post. Downvote as necessary...
No way- your own goal gets an upvote.
I just bought Michigan season parking for $30 per game just south of Pioneer and thought that was a good deal
I wonder how cheap I'll be able to get 50 yard line lower deck tickets by the time the game rolls around
You can sample Rutgers near the frozen foods aisle then decide whether or not to buy Rutgers. Alternatively, you can buy a lifetime supply of Kirkland Rutgers.
Thanks, I would have guessed either the produce section at the 🍅 tomato display or near the canned tomato sauces.
Costco seems too good for Rutgers
Surprised Dave Brandon didn't think of this. Maybe get a free case of water with purchase.
Rutgers Seating Capacity: 52,454
Rutgers sold 20,057 season tickets in 2021
Rutgers averaged 25,347 tickets scanned per game in 2021, a number that is not considered fully accurate due to technical issues and event staff error.
But the average scan figure for 2019 was 16,366.
THE SCHIANO DIFFERENCE
Wow that is a ridiculous good deal. Also, I'm not going to hate on them for finding weird ways to move tickets - they are Rutgers. It's still crazy how they've managed to get into a Super 2 League. Also crazy - they've seen their debt increase since joining the Big Ten. Don't really get how that happened but it did.
They've had to do a LOT of facility improvements to come up to B1G standards, even if they don't have the fanbase to support it all. They also took a loan from the conference when they first joined, but I'm not sure if it's been paid back yet. The good news for them is that the B1G is still sending money they haven't earned to them each year in the form of TV revenue sharing!
I do think Rutgers has the ability to be a mid-tier FB program under Schiano - especially if divisions disappear - and I think they're women's basketball program can return to success. While I think it was a bad move for the Big Ten (with caveats that I don't know the TV numbers and if PSU was serious about the ACC), I don't think any school has played realignment better than Rutgers. In 1980 they'd have been considered FCS. In 1990, mid major. Somehow they jumped into the Big East, and despite struggling and being left behind by the ACC, they managed their way into one of the 2 super leagues.
And all this while being ranked in the final AP poll just 4 times in 86 seasons of the poll's existence. I'm incredibly annoyed they exist in our league, I feel like their AD has been mismanaged - but they've managed to fail upwards for no apparent reason other than they decided to in 1980 and they're in New Jersey.
Also as an aside - Maryland used to be a pretty good ACC school, a basketball power and a school that could sneak up on VT or FSU for a scare. Now they're...Rutgers' partner. I know the finances make a ton of sense for them but their reputation took a hit by joining the Big Ten, ironically.
Honestly, not going to get on them too hard for this. It's a team that needs to get butts in seats and if they offered this deal on their website nobody would bat an eye.

Holy crap, I may be down for this deal. Looks like the Michigan game is a go
I just bought one. Was already considering, seems like a decent deal to offset the cost of tolls in NJ, haha.

Of course the Wagner game is blacked out for the deal. Fucking unreal...
/s
Buy in bulk.
Thanks for the heads up. I shall reroute my drive home to avoid the inevitable traffic jam...
They should sell these in more places. You could stop on the Garden State Parkway at the Jon Bon Jovi/Cheesequake service plaza and buy Rutgers tickets from the guy who pumps your gas.
They should have activated them with the purchase of a Coke Zero
I wonder if they get a free Diet Coke with the deal. Meh. Probably more like a free RC Cola, it’s Rutger after all.
I'll take two tickets and a liter of cola. I said, a LITER OF COLA!
Only better deal would be free with the purchase of any two Axe products.
(A tip-of-the-cap to 'East German Judge' ---I borrowed the pic and a bottle of spray tan from one of your posts)
1. First of all, we sold ours with a coke. So lets calm down.
2. Its not a bad idea for a team that struggles to fill its own stands.
3. Costco quality of product has gone downhill badly.
If they don't come with two free Cokes, I'm not buying.
I come from the Dave Brandon School of Hard Knocks, folks.
Wait a second. Season tickets + parking for $100. No way…..
It's not season tickets. You pick the game. Michigan is still avaliable but seating is limited. If you're a costco member you can purchase online.
you also can buy macbooks and $100 bottles of wine at costco, which is awesome.
i'd love to be able to buy my sporting tickets at the holy grail of grocers.
Heck, I was already thinking about going up there this year. I've never been. Why not? Seems like a decent deal to me.
