VT can't sustain it's position if tons and tons of new donors don't buy in.

And most of them will have to buy in without getting anything in return.

If that 25k number of donors wanted an average of 3 tickets each, it would more than sell out the stadium. And remember there are not even 65K seats available for use by the donors. You have student share, the ones held by the administration, and the visiting team's share.

Is everyone going to simply be altruistic and expect nothing in return?
