Badgers sports: Football ticket price hike approved by Athletic Board

The university’s Athletic Board unanimously voted to increase per-seat prices for season football tickets from $45 to $48 at its meeting Friday afternoon in order to meet its annual services contributions to campus, which increased from $2 million to $5.5 million this year. The request from Bascom Hall for an additional $3.5 million came shortly after Gov. Scott Walker introduced a proposed state budget for 2015-17 that seeks $300 million in cuts to the UW System.
