In an attempt to stem the flow of fans flocking to “The Zone” during games at Husky Stadium, the University of Washington athletic department has created a premium section in the popular tailgating area that will be open during halftime only to those who have purchased VIP tickets.
The “ZonePass” is available to 500 fans in the premium area of The Zone and costs $79 for a full season. The change goes into effect starting with Saturday’s home opener against Montana. The ZonePass will cost $10 for this weekend’s game.
The Zone will remain open to all fans with a game ticket during the three hours before kickoff.
