UGA to Hike Football Ticket Prices

  The price to attend a Univ. of Georgia football game is on the rise, as the school plans two ticket price hikes in the coming years.

The first is a $5 jump, which takes the price of a home game ticket from $40 to $45. The second increase comes in 2017, when the price grows to $50.

The annual Georgia/Florida game, held in Jacksonville, will increase by $10.

Student prices remain the same.

The Athens Banner-Herald reports the UGA Athletic Association Board late last week also voted to build an indoor practice field.

The Board voted to pay an architectural firm $400,000 to design the building.
