Boise state raised its prices for the 2007 football season tickets.

The increases vary, depending on which section the tickets are bought for, ranging from 16.7 percent to 25.9 percent for next season’s tickets. 

The increase is the result of more student-athlete scholarships, an additional home game and the expected operational expenses of running the football program. 

The price for a season pass depends of the seat location and the person making the purchase. The most expensive
season package for the seven home games and the 2008 game will be $300 per person. 

This is a 16.7 percent increase over last season of six home games and the spring game. Endzone season tickets for
juniors- those two to 18 years old jumped by 23.3 percent to $111 but still remain the cheapest package for qualifying individuals. 

The family plan rose by the largest percentage. It now costs $575 for two adult and two junior tickets. This is a 25.9
percent increase. 

Some individual game tickets will be sold starting in August. Depending on the seating, they will be sold between $17 to $27 for juniors and $26 to $42 for adults. 

Some season tickets require a Bronco Athletic Association membership. 

A breakdown of next season’s prices and seating zones is as follows: Junior-General Admission End Zone $111.00, Junior-General Admission (130) $153.00, Adult-General Admission End Zone $167.00, Adult-General Admission (130) $209.00, Reserved (101, 102, 129) $244.00, Reserved (27, 28, 29, 30, 103, 104, 127,128)  $258.00, Reserved (105, 111,126) $279.00, Priority Areas and Sections (5,25,25,125) $300.00, Two Adults plus two Juniors  (Family Plan) $575.00. Boise State had 19,494 season-ticket buyers last season. A large percentage is expected to renew for 2007 season.

An additional 1,500 people are on the waiting list. BSU may
sell about 21,500 season tickets. In addition, BSU keeps 5,000
tickets for students and 3,500 for other purposes including
opponents’ tickets.

The Broncos won the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl and have the longest winning streak in I-A football with 13 straight wins.
They are the five-time defending Western Athletic Conference Champions. The 2007 home season will open on August 30 with the game against Weber State University.
