I was told I was getting 10% of my seats' per match value. Guess we don't know what that is yet.

$40 toward the shirt I'll take for sure.

Section 123 at Dodd

I was just looking into maybe getting season tickets, just not sure if I want to drive from Birmingham to Atlanta that many times

I think it will be pretty fun. I've worn AUFC shirts out and other fans stop me and are pretty giddy about next season. Will be fun to be a part of something like this from the inception through many years to come.

Two hours from birmingham every other week or so would be a lot but I'd be curious if eventually they'll offer half season packages or 3-packs or the like.

I would think so, but who knows. I think the games would be pretty popular, so I think I wouldn't have much trouble selling tickets to a few games to get some of my money back if I don't feel like making the drive, so I'll probably pull the trigger

I'm in NC and I'll probably go to about 6 games. Stub hub or Facebook the rest of my tix to recoup some back.

Also kudos to the club on how they handled this Dodd situation. I know it pissed some people off (I wasn't one of them), but they really handled it well IMO.

Yeah this helps some.

I wasn't necessarily mad, because I know a lot of people are planning to go to every game. But I wasn't, so I was comforted by the fact that the new stadium would probably help me recoup money for games I didn't attend.

Obviously putting it at GT is going to hurt that. I didn't do this to make a profit, obviously, but I'd like not to take a bath on games I can't go to either.

At least this way I feel like the club recognized that some people were uncertain and is trying to kick in some extras.

The rational fans understood that playing half of season on the road before the first home game is an absolute buzzkill and kills the momentum of the inaugural season. Take the good with the bad in this situation so I'm happy with the Dodd situation.
