Bowl Game Tickets:
Tickets for the GMAC bowl will be available from the University of Memphis ticket office beginning Tuesday, November 30th at 9:00am. We will take ticket orders from November 30th through Thursday, December 9th. Ticket orders will be filled in the following order:
1. Tiger Club members (through your priority points)
2. Football season ticket holders who are not Tiger Clubs members
3. General public
As long as your order is received by the December 9th deadline, your order will be allocated based on Tiger Clubs status or football season ticket status (for example, an order placed by a $1000 donor on December 8th will still receive priority over an order placed on November 30th by a $500 donor). Any orders received after the 9th will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis, if available.
Tickets cost $45 each. There is no limit as to the number of tickets you may purchase. To order tickets, call the ticket office at 901-678-2331 or go to www.gotigersgo.com to download a ticket order form. This form may be faxed to 901-678-4112.
Please make every attempt to order your tickets through the University of Memphis ticket office as the institution will benefit from all tickets purchased from its allotment. This will also ensure that you sit with other Tiger fans.
