Ok so in our section of CA, we have a "seeding show" similar to what the NCAA does with hoops.
For us its on the night after our last game. We are thinking of doing a spaghetti feed that will start 30 minutes prior to the show, get all of the food needs donated, and then sell tickets as a last-of-the-year fundraiser. My question is for anyone that does something like this where you sell tickets- what is the best option??
1) Have the kids bring cash and then give them the tickets. 2) Give the kids 4-5 tickets each, tell them money and/or tickets is due the day before the event?
Any other ideas or suggestions I'm open too. I get the best ideas on this forum for sure.

That way you don't have people showing up claiming that they paid but the kid must not have given you the money.

I agree. Go with #2 and have them turn it in ahead of time so you know how much food to get as well.

Can you not just take money at the door?

We could do that too, but I was thinking pre-selling might hold everyone more accountable to sell at least a few each. What do you think?

Definitely option number 2. Only give out a certain number of tickets per player and make it an incentive to sell tickets. Whoever sells the most tickets gets a prize. Controlling the tickets and having them the them in a day or 2 early allows you to get a head count for the dinner.

#2 if for no other reason than knowing how much food you need.
