After Auburn assistant Chuck Person was charged with bribery and corruption charges on Tuesday, the school has decided to offer full refunds for season ticket holders.
According to a report by James Crepea of AL.com, the school has already had some ticket holders request refunds.
This comes only days after announcing that the program had sold out season tickets for a fourth straight season.
?SOLD OUT?
Make it 4️⃣ years straight the Tigers have sold out of season tickets!

To add to the turmoil, the Tigers also lost a commitment from 5-star 2019 power forward E.J. Montgomery on Wednesday morning.
Lovell’s Analysis
Stability is hard to come by right now for the Auburn program following Person’s arrest.
And as I’ve mentioned in previous stories, it’s hard to know what’s next. Fans are going to be upset due to all the unknowns in this situation, so it’s not a shocker to see some wanting refunds.
Because will we actually see the Auburn team that we all thought we’d see this season? That’s what everyone is waiting to find out.
But if yesterday’s events are only the beginning, things could look dramatically different for the Tigers this year.
