When I went to OSU, my first year (1987) I bought a student ticket for $40. That was for 5 games.

I paid $14 and got an athletic card that they punched for each of the home football games. With that same card you could go to BBall games for 25 cents each and get into all other events free.
To put this in the context of athletic department expenses, I would estimate that the football coach at the time (a Mr. Hayes) would have been making roughly 3-4% of what our current coach is making. (This was 10 years before Woody retired with a salary of $43,000).
