Student Tickets for Football
The UGA Athletic Association will use a lottery system to allocate all Georgia
Football Student Tickets for the fall 2004 season. Spring study abroad
students interested in obtaining tickets for home games will need to enter the
lottery. If you would like to participate in the home game ticket lottery,
please send an email to [log in to unmask] with the following information:
o your full name
o student id number
o email address (where notification of results can be sent)
You must send us an e-mail no later than Wednesday, March 31st so we can
prepare the list and send it to the Athletic Association by their established
deadline. If we do not hear from you by this deadline, we will assume you are
not interested in getting football tickets for the 2004 season.
The actual lottery will take place April 12-16, 2004. Results will be sent via
email. That email will also include further information regarding payment for
and collection of tickets if applicable.
Study abroad students will not be able to enter the lotteries for away game
tickets. However, you may be able to obtain tickets for the Florida game when
you return in the fall. Spring study abroad students will be cleared to enter
the lottery for Florida tickets along with new and transfer students. If
there are tickets available for any other away games, you will be able to
purchase them in the fall.
