A new ticket plan has arrived at South Carolina, and it’s designed for fans of all sports.
The “Gamecock GO Pass” is a subscription-based plan that the school has said is similar to popular online streaming services. Fans will have access to attend an unlimited number of home games across all sports for $25 per month, except if a game is a sellout. The mobile-only pass will assign seats prior to the game with those seat locations changing each game.
“Gamecock fans are the best in the nation with a history of passionate support,” South Carolina Athletics Director Ray Tanner said. “No school in the nation has the fan support for all of its sports like we do at Carolina. Our student-athletes, coaches and staff appreciate the tremendous home advantage our fans give us, and the Gamecock GO Pass is an opportunity to grow that support.”
South Carolina said it’s the first of its kind in the SEC, and only one other program in the Power 5 conferences that offers a similar product for all fans.
The Gamecock GO Pass is $25 per month with a 12-month commitment, or a one-time payment of $300. Other features of the Gamecock GO Pass include “Sit With Friends,” guest tickets and gameday seat upgrades.
The “Sit With Friends” feature allows fans to link their passes in order to sit together. Guest tickets provides the opportunity to purchase at face value extra tickets to a game with those seats located with the Gamecock GO Pass seats.
