The prices doubled for the cheap seats. That’s the number one reason.

They know exactly why; always poll your users to confirm, rank, priority & pulse

A church-run entity, located in Provo, in a bubble? No way!

I think they've believed for a long time that great schedules are the big thing

They also need to realize how demoralizing losses to UMASS and NIU

I think they ask non-renewals every year why they didn't renew.

If they'd let people renew their seats without getting bumped by higher tier cc

The people who donate the most should get the first pick of seats.
