ALL sports had ticket sales of ~$350k in 2022 per the Knight Commission DB.
Calculated up last season's attendance numbers.
MBB (16 home games)= 59303 (3706 p/game)
FB (6 home games)= 25256 (4209 p/game)
*At a minimum ISU's WBB and Baseball programs also sell tickets, but they are not represented in this calculation.
Total # of fans= 84559
AVG # per ISU home event= 3844 fans p/game
$350,000 ÷ 84559= $4.14 per ticket
Cheapest MBB Ticket= $8
Most Expensive MBB Tix= $26
Football Ticket= $15
So the question is how many tickets is ISU just giving away for free? It has to be at least half, if not more. My thought is that ISU might be getting 1500 ticket paying fans per game across the two "revenue" sports we have.
