Hope this message finds you well. My name is Warren Verrett and I handle the Premium Seating for the Golden Bears California Memorial Stadium.

I have been reaching out to introduce myself to members outside of the club area and notice some aren't aware of our club seating. As we overcome these challenging times, I wanted to see if you are aware or have ever considered our Endowment Seating Program? Our premium seating options are ideal to host clients and prospects or just have some fun with family and friends.

I would also like to schedule a time to explain some of the cool things that we are doing and show you some of the remaining available opportunities for this upcoming season. What is your availability to discuss our premium products?

Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to connecting with you soon.

Thank you,

Warren

Warren is a great guy. I'm sure many people are not aware of the cost or the length of the seating agreement.

What do you think the response will be? Are people anxious to buy Club seats since they have not been able to go to games for a year? We still don't know if fans will be allowed and how many. Will people be anxious to go if masks are required?

Night games. In game experience.No winning pac12 record for 10 years. The usual hype but will it be enough to bring fans back and to possibly upgrade tickets?

I am betting lots of people are anxious to go and wont-mind wearing masks and don't mind night games. Buying club seats is another animal. Maybe people have large amounts of cash they have been unable to spend.

After 50 years I did not renew season tickets last year before the pandemic. Not sure I would jump back in with a huge commitment given all the uncertainties. I did new basketball tickets.

Maybe this was covered elsewhere, but my ESP contact said the plan as of now is to let in everyone who wants to attend who will wear a mask.

That is optimistic....

I can't see Cal permitting 62,000 people in the stadium even if they were all wearing masks. A subset of that number - yep. A sellout with no spacing - nope.

"Bad news guys. While we've been here on the
Moon for the last twenty years, Cal has seen fit
to give away our Club Seating to johnny-come-latelys!"

small nit: it will the the Cit of Berkeley health director (after advisement from Alameda County HD) that decides how many can attend.

I don't think we have to worry about an attendance anywhere near 62,000. Even if there were no restrictions (which is unlikely), I can't foresee a crowd larger than 45,000 to 50,000 for any game this season. Maybe next year if we win 9 or 10 games this year.

Our home games:
Sept 4 Nevada
Sept 18 Sac State
Oct 2 WSU
Oct 23 Colorado
Oct 30 OSU
Nov. 13 USC

Most likely only the final game in November against USC will draw a good crowd and only if Cal is having a good season up until then.

By November vaccinations should be widespread with cases down, unless there is a variant not covered by the previous vaccines.

Although you have history on your side, I'm betting that people will be so happy to have big events again that our per game average attendance will rise, over the 2019 numbers. So long as we are winning the games we should. The Nevada game will have a huge crowd: over 50K.

Not going if mask required. I wont be the only one. I wear masks when I am supposed to but will not spend 4 hours wearing one at a football game. I would do it at a basketball game.

The Wolfpack do travel, especially for a nearby Pac 12 game.
Actually, I think Cal and Nevada should try to turn this into an annual rivalry game. Make it a traditional out of conference rivalry.

I agree Reno could exceed 50,000 but whether that is "huge" or not is relative and subjective.

The issue was exceeding 62,000

I think the candidate for that is the final home game against USC, especially if Cal is having the type of season we all hope we will be having.
