Yes, they have stupid rules.
My seats were in my girlfriend's many and she no longer wanted to go so I kept buying them on my card yet sent to her addy for the senority. I kept arguing with the ticket office that if there are two seats and the payments are in my name does that not prove that my senority should stay.
NO, pay the $50 per ticket and you can keep your seats. Start senority all over again. That was my nightmare a couple seasons ago.
