Daryl Gross says no mandatory donations or 3 game packages if SU fans want to go to the Verizon Center. It was a sticking point in the deal.

And Just like the " There's a 10 year contract on Georgetown's Desk waiting to be signed" He's full of shit:

I reached out to the Georgetown athletics department for a comment on how tickets will be handled for Syracuse games in the future.

“As is standard in agreements such as these, the visiting team will receive an allotment of tickets and the home team will control the sale and distribution of all remaining tickets,” a Georgetown spokesman said via e-mail. “The visiting team and home team are free to sell/distribute their ticket allotments as they choose. Georgetown Athletics plans to continue its practice of providing priority access for tickets to those who buy multi-game plans or who support Georgetown Athletics.”

Good for Georgetown. They are your home games; you should control the ticketing. I don't see the problem here. If Syracuse fans don't like it, they don't have to buy tix.

That being said, rather than buy three game blocs, why not just jack up the price for the one game. Same amount of money, but you don't end up with a bunch of no shows for the other two games.
