The 36 luxury skyboxes in Razorback Stadium are leased annually by the University of Arkansas athletic department. All the skyboxes are occupied for the current football season.
The price of the skyboxes, which were added to the stadium in 1985, varies depending on the size of the box. The nine-seat skyboxes lease for $4,000 per season. The 12-seat skyboxes are $5,000 and the 24-seat boxes are $10,000 per season. The Razorbacks usually play three games in Fayetteville yearly, making the cost per game for a skybox between $1,333 to $3,333.
