I received complimentary Game Day Fan Zone passes for the Orange Bowl. Why is there a cost associated with the Game Day Fan Zone for the BCS National Championship Game? Am I required to buy the Game Day Fan Zone tickets?
The Orange Bowl Committee provides complimentary Game Day Fan Zone passes for the Discover Orange Bowl Game to all Patrons on the Lower Level and Club Level that renew their seats. We are not able to provide passes free of charge of the BCS National Championship Game Day Fan Zone due to limited space available and the expected demand for the event from fans of participating schools. However we did want to ensure our annual Patrons had the first opportunity secure passes for this great pre-game event. You are not required to purchase the Game Day Fan Zone passes and can remove them from your account online or may contact the Orange Bowl Ticket Sales and Service Department at tickets@orangebowl.org or (305) 34-4701.

You may also purchase ‘TeamTix’ –which guarantees the right and obligation to purchase a face value ticket(s) to the 2013 Discover BCS National Championship Game for a specific team should they be selected to play in the BCS National Championship Game.
