Eagle Perch Campaign Tops 1,000
The perch is a chairback seat that bolts on to the bench seat location of the renter for the entire season. Perches rent for $20 each. Single game rentals are not available.
?We are pleasantly surprised at how well sales have gone in the first year,? commented Cooksey. ?The limited number of permanent chairback seats in our stadium are sold out on an annual basis. The perch allows all season ticket holders access to the comfort of a chairback seat and eliminates the hassles involved with having to lug a seat or cushion into each game. I think it also serves an important barometer regarding what type of amenities our fans would like to see in the future as we look at the long-term facility plan for the stadium.?
Word of mouth and positive customer reviews at the season?s opening game against Oklahoma State helped push perch totals past the 1,000 mark. ?We did order some additional perches, and we will continue to sell them until the supply is exhausted.?
