Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How can I improve my football parking?
A. Based on availability, you may be able to improve your football parking (or add parking) by requesting the change online when you renew or on your renewal form.  You will be contacted by the ticket office with options and donation cost associated with the parking permit if it is available.  If there is no associated cost with the move, then your permit will be changed and you will receive it with your football season tickets.

Q. How do I keep the seats that I had last year?
A. Once you have established season ticket priority, you must maintain the annual contribution or higher associated with the season ticket.

Q. How do I acquire a basketball parking permit?
A. You must be a basketball season ticket holder and make a minimum annual contribution to the Buff Club of $500 in order to acquire a basketball parking permit. Cabinet members, Scholarship Donors, and Courtside ticket holder are allowed one permit in lot 440 for basketball (based on availability).

Q. How do I request a seat improvement for my football season tickets?
A. Based on availability, you may be able to improve your football season tickets by requesting the change online when you renew or on your renewal form.  The ticket office will contact you regarding your request during the seat improvement process.  The seat improvement process will begin in mid-April and every request will be addressed.  It is important to return a phone call from the ticket office ASAP as an offer on upgraded seats will only be held for a limited period of time.

Q. How do I transfer tickets?
A. You must fill out a season ticket transfer form in order to transfer your tickets and turn it in to the ticket office.  If you are receiving any discounts, these will not apply after the transfer is made.  The full price of tickets and donation will be charged when the tickets are transferred to another party.  Your priority points will not transfer with the tickets, and parking transfers are subject to approval by the ticket office.

Q. Is the cost of the season football ticket and parking pass included in my donation?
A. No. Donations are made to the Buff Club for the Student-Athlete Excellence Fund or Golden Buffalo Scholarship fund and do not cover the cost of football season tickets or parking permits.  The donation you make will determine what seating and parking options are available to you.

Q. Are all Buff Club donors eligible to purchase football parking permits?
A. Only Buff Club donors whose combined annual contributions exceed $250 and are football season ticket holders are eligible to purchase Game Day Zone parking permits.

Q. Are donations for Buff Club membership tax deductible?
A. Contributions to the Buff Club are 100% tax deductible if there are no benefits received for the gift. It is the Buff Club’s interpretation that the minimum donation to retain benefits (such as seating or parking), falls within the guidelines for IRC 170(L) and is therefore 80% deductible.  Please consult your tax advisor regarding this important information. A charitable gift receipt will be mailed to you from the University of Colorado Foundation.

Q. What other benefits are available to Buff Club Members?
A. Buff Club members may be eligible to purchase season football tickets and parking passes, purchase away game tickets, bowl game tickets and Pac-12 Championship Game tickets, receive media guides, Buff Club official publication The Stampede Magazine, Buff Club decal, and/or options to purchase tickets to Buff Club sponsored events.
