Was there nothing about this in the original contract?
Seems like you don't have a lot to complain about if there was.

Did you have some crazy low price grandfathered in (no pun intended) the whole time?
I've never had season tickets. How does it work? Are you guaranteed the same price each year?
Did they offer to let you keep them at a higher price?
So are you "Not going to be a Jazz fan anymore" level of butt-hurt?
How did they find out and was it like they were anxious to cancel them? Like even had he lived would they have been happier to have him cancel than renew our something?
Occasionally he would get to move up (again for a corresponding price increase) as season tickets became available in closer rows.
You mean the original contract signed in 1979? Probably going to be pretty hard to find out. As for the renewals there doesn't appear to be much of any contract. They basically just send a bill. It's probably a term of adhesion at some point. The Millers didn't even own the team when Grandpa first got season tickets. He literally has been with the Jazz longer than the Miller family and predated Stockton and Malone.
But glad to see that you think 36 years of business history means nothing and justifies pissing all over a grieving family within 48 hours of his death.
Dick.
No. And if that was the case I would understand the rule.
The Jazz have routinely raised the ticket prices for the season ticket package. After the Jazz made the Western Finals, the prices went up 18% in a single season which almost caused the family to cancel. We've paid the market price (with perhaps minor discounts never more than 5%) every season. The primary advantage was that Grandpa got to keep the same seats every season. Occasionally he would get to move up (again for a corresponding price increase) as season tickets became available in closer rows. To my knowledge the last time he moved closer was in 1998. He was in the closest possible row before the season tickets started running around $6k a year.
I could claim that but we'd all know that I'd be lying. Fandom isn't rational or reasonable.
This does make me fervently anti-Miller though. The calling right after he died to cancel the tickets was beyond cold.
Did they have a habit of checking up? Strange situation and no class from the Jazz
Tell the papers. Do whatever you can to pressure them. I'll do my miniscule part by writing the team if you wish.
How do you think these seats opened up?
How did they know your grandpa died so fast? It was f'd up the way they did it, I agree.
Also, did the tickets ever get cheaper? Like the last few years when we have been awful.
Doesn't The Utah Jazz have PSL's? Before he passed, couldn't your granddad just "sell" the license to your uncles? Or I guess you didn't anticipate this type of scumbaggery from the organization.
Just wondering when payment is made? For our Bulls (partial) season tickets (11 game package, no longer offered except for renewals) we make a deposit on the next season BEFORE the end of the current season, and our tickets are paid in full in mid-August.
(dude loved Alec Burks as recently as 6 months ago though, he'd sit about 5 inches from the TV screen and laugh every time he barreled his way to the hoop).
I do not know the answer to this question, although the team's reaction suggests that they do not. Also keep in mind that my grandfather may not have been super keen on the fine details the last 10 or so years as he was suffering from Parkinson's
