49ers FSL Numbers Rise to 2558

50 Percent of Goal Reached Within Two Weeks of Announcement

Sept. 29, 2008

Charlotte, N.C. - As of the close of the business, Monday, Sept. 29, the 49ers had received reservations for 2558 Forty-Niner Seat Licenses (FSL's). That translates to $2,558,000 worth of support for 49ers football since Chancellor Dr. Phil Dubois' recommendation to add football was made on Thursday, Sept. 18. At this time, no money has been accepted by the 49ers ticket office. The 49ers will await the UNC Charlotte Board of Trustees' final approval in November before beginning the actual sale of FSL's and football tickets.

The Chancellor's recommendation called for the sale of 5000 FSL's within six months of the Board of Trustees' approval. With 2558 reservations, the 49ers have reached 50% of that goal within the first two weeks of his announcement.

Interested fans and corporations are encouraged to add their names to the growing reservation list by calling the 49ers ticket office at 704/687-4949 or the 49ers Athletic Foundation at 704/687-4950 or by logging on to the 49ers official athletic website, www.charlotte49ers.com.
