Miami football often has trouble filling up Sun Life Stadium on fall Saturdays. There has always been a number of reasons: small alumni base, a venue that’s far from campus, plenty of other things to do in sunny South Florida, etc. Now the Hurricanes appear to have a solution for fans: don’t bother.
Miami football ad: ‘Go to fewer games’

3. I'm not so sure I can make it to the other 5 home games.
The mini-plan starts at $108, and includes a free Miami hat, which the Hurricanes say is a $30 value.
