Baylor Athletics will begin the season with 25% capacity per game at McLane Stadium, including our student body, premium Suite and Loge owners, and general stadium bowl ticket holders. Due to the significant reduction in ticket inventory, Baylor Athletics will defer all 2020 season tickets to the 2021 campaign. McLane Stadium has been re-manifested to support social distancing, and priority single-game tickets will be sold to season ticket holders first. Â
Â
Â
Premium Seating
Premium areas, including Suites and Loge seating, will retain season ticket status and will not be subject to priority single-game ticket selection. Capacity in premium seating areas will reflect social distancing recommendations set forth by health and safety officials. Club seats will be sold as priority single-game tickets to current club season ticket holders only, and a maximum ticket amount of four (4) tickets per account, per game can be purchased. Specific information for Suite, Loge, and club season ticket holders will be sent from the Bear Foundation to all respective ticket owners as a follow up to this message.

Like many organizations, Baylor Athletics will continue to experience financial setbacks during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bear Foundation remains committed in its mission to fund student-athlete scholarship support, regardless of current circumstances and we need your help! Converting your ticket payment into a tax-deductible gift will allow us to offset the high cost of scholarships for Baylor student-athletes, along with many other costs associated with running an elite athletic program. From academics and athletic performance to spiritual growth and community involvement, your giving helps us in our mission of Preparing Champions for Life.

My chances of upgrading my seats will improve due to advancing to the next level of priority ranking.
