awesome that Mu was able to do this. Seemed like a no brainer but one never knows. Hopefully can help make up for the revenue lost on the two scrimmages. If the lockout contiues look for more.

-MU didn't lose revenue for the two scrimmages. They charge the same for season tickets as years past, and up the price for single game tickets.
-Don't think any more home games at the BC will have the times moved. The day game in Nova, L'ville, Pitt & Cincy are all ESPN games. G'town is not national tv, but there is hockey at night at the BC.

They still lose revenue from whatever walk-ups and single game tickets they may have sold. It may be minimal, but it is still lost potential revenue.
Very little.
You want to make it up, keep having schools like NC State, Vandy & LSU coming to the BC.

Earlier year MU confirmed it walks away from at least $360K in total revenue from the two home exhibition games in favor of player development (read: closed scrimmages).

I updated the calendar with the new times. If you subscribed to it, you'll get the new one automatically. Otherwise, you are on your own. If it were me, I'd tell my wife to remember the changes ;)

I wonder if that's correct, now. For years, they held the lower bowl ticket cost constant at $30. This year, they adjusted it to around $38, which I would assume maintains their revenue level received by season ticket holders .. jack up the price $8, and you make up most of the revenue loss from the loss of 3-4 games this year.
MU can tell anyone the b.s. they want. If the price of the season-tickets are same as in years past, because they are now in year two of charging more money for single game tickets.
