Rumors of a new ticket deal for University of Arkansas students who want to go to football and basketball games became reality today.

The UA announced a $65 pass that will entitle 9,500 students to entry to all home football games. The pass is good for basketball games, too, but only 1,500 to 3,000 seats will be available for passholders per game. And only the first 2,000 will get in Little Rock football games. Other tickets will be sold as available to students at reduced prices.
