FOOTBALL TICKETS FOR 2008 SEASON We have 40 tickets for the Sept 6 game against Ohio University. Football tickets for alumni continue to be limited. Priority for ticket distribution will go to alumni who are members of the OSU Alumni Association and members of Welding Engineering alumni society. Attendees will be limited to purchasing two game tickets or two total tickets per household (whether a couple has a joint or individual membership) and the tickets must be purchased along with the annual dues. Ticket requests will be filled on a first-come, first served basis. Confirmation notices will be sent by email. If you already have tickets to this game via other sources, we ask that you refrain from ordering Welding Society tickets. Alumni Association members who obtain tickets to attend a game through the membership benefit are not prohibited from obtaining tickets through Welding Engineering. The cost for tickets is $66 EACH! So, a pair of tickets is $132 plus the $20 for membership fee for a total cost of $152 total. To request tickets, email Brad Reed at geubux@yahoo.com. Brad will let you know if you have the tickets and will get them to you as soon as possible.
As of 8-1-08, we do not know where the seats are located, but previous seat locations have always been decent. New this year, Brad also needs your OSU Alumni Association member number or he can't sell you tickets (there is no OSUWE Society member number); call OSU Alumni Association to get your member number if you don't have it handy. Please include this in your email to him. Thanks! Brad Reed geubux@yahoo.com
