Abstract

College football is one of the highest revenue generators for university athletic departments, and revenue from attendance is one of the major football revenue sources. This paper seeks to estimate the demand for Football Bowl Subdivision (Division I) college football using athletic department supplied financial information. I find that Football Bowl Subdivision athletic department's price spectator demand is consistent with two‐part tariffs.
