I paid $25 extra for my season ticket to get a better seat - does that make me a member of the Buff Club?

How do we only have 1,800 donors if we have like 25k season ticket holders or more? Are they excluding the people who only make the minimum donation for their seats?

That was my thought, too. It was a number that was thrown out at a recent SF booster event. It must refer to out-of-state or donors over the $500 or $1k level or something. There are other numbers that get bandied about. Hard to get a good read on it. I did hear that California booster numbers are just now inching over the 500 member level.

I thought we had over 5k? Maybe that's an out of state #?

According to CU Buff's own compliance web site defines boosters, it's safe to say there are more than 1,800 boosters.

Q: Am I considered a representative of CU's athletics interests (a "booster/donor")?

A booster/donor is a person who:

Is a member of an organization that promotes CU's athletics interests, such as the Buff Club, or has ever belonged to such a club.
Has donated to the Athletics Department or to a CU booster club.
Has ever purchased or held season tickets for any sport.
Has assisted or is assisting in the recruitment of a student-athlete in any way.
Has assisted or is assisting in providing benefits to enrolled student-athletes or their families
Is a former student-athlete.
Remember, once you are a representative of CU’s athletics interests, you forever maintain this status.
