Q: If my ticket request cannot be filled, how will I be notified?
A: When you register online, you will be notified immediately if tickets for a particular event are sold out.
Q: What can I bring into Folsom Stadium?
A: Due to security concerns, there are restrictions on what can be carried into the stadium. For a complete list of Folsom Field policies and other stadium information.
Q: How much do I have to worry about the availability of football tickets?
A: We have 5,000 tickets to the Washington State football game allocated to us from the Athletic Department. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of tickets, so register early. Ticket price is $40, which is a 20 percent discount.
Q: What time is kick-off for the football game?
A: Kick-off time for the Family Weekend game featuring your Colorado Buffaloes and the Washington State Cougars has not yet been set. There is a good chance that game-time will not be known until approximately 10 days prior to the game. Call (303) 735-4020 for the latest recorded information on Family Weekend.
Q: Are there special football ticket arrangements for people with disabilities and those who need easily accessible seating for the game?
A: Easy access and disability seating are extremely limited. You can request special seating when you register for Family Weekend on-line. You should also call the Office of Parent Relations at (303) 492-1380 as soon as possible but no later than September 28th to make and confirm arrangements.
Q: If I register early, can I get better seats at the game?
A: No, seats are assigned randomly. The Athletic Department sets price and seat location for the game.
Q: Are there discounts for kids or seniors attending meals or the football game?
A: No. The lunch and the brunch are both buffets and there is a single price per attendee. The Athletic Department does not issue discount tickets for any group attending athletic contests.
Q: I’ve already registered for Family Weekend and purchased football tickets but now two more members of my family want to go to the football game. Can I alter my registration and add two more football tickets?
A: Yes. Contact Conference Services (the folks handling Family Weekend registration) and tell them what you want to do. You can contact them at (303) 492-5151 before September 16.
