FOOTBALL TICKET DISTRIBUTION CALENDAR

Should tickets remain by Friday evening, students will be notified that a limited number of tickets are still available to be claimed, and any capacity remaining after claim deadline (11:59 p.m. on Friday) will be available for students without an advance claim ticket to enter at a time to be determined with just a valid SUID in a standby line until capacity is reached. This standby line will be located at Gate 3 - immediately to the left of the Red Zone entrance when looking at Stanford Stadium.

Should all tickets be claimed by the deadline, students will be notified that a standby line will exist, but be subject to available capacity from no-shows starting at a time to be determined. Admission to any football game is guaranteed only by claiming your ticket in advance.

2011 RED ZONE LOYALTY POINT PROGRAM
The Red Zone Loyalty Point Program will function as a basic priority point program to help fairly distribute Football tickets for the marquee games against Oregon and Cal to our most loyal student fans. Here is how the program will function for the 2011 season:

• Students will earn points for attending select Athletics events as listed in the calendar below.
• To view your points, sign in to your account. Points will be updated within three business days of every Red Zone Point event.
• Student will then gain access to claim tickets for Oregon and Cal based on how many points they have earned - with first priority earlier in the week given to those with the most points and continuing until all tickets are distributed.
• Students will be informed when their claim period opens via e-mail.

It is the students' responsibility to ensure his/her SUID is correctly scanned in order to receive points. Points will only be awarded upon entry to the event - claiming a ticket alone does not earn any points. Should there be any concerns, students should check in with a ticket office representative at the student entrance to ensure their points are recorded. Students have one week after points from an event are updated to make a formal appeal if they believe their points are incorrect by contacting athletictickets@stanford.edu with the subject line: The Red Zone Loyalty Points Program. Points will not be awarded retroactively more than one week after an event.
