ASU is currently asking for $20,000 per 4-person box for the season. The Sun Devils have seven regular-season home games in the upcoming season, so it would cost about $715 per person, per game for a box for the season.
The premium seating offers a limited view of the field from ground level, but it will put you close to the action in the north end zone. There also aren't monitors to get a better view of the whole field in the loge seating, but you will basically be on the field for the game.
More information is available by emailing premium@asu.edu.

Gareth Bale leading consortium to buy Cardiff City

Gareth Bale is leading a consortium that has made an approach to buy Cardiff City. Bale's group sent a letter of intent to Cardiff owner Vincent Tan last month, which expressed their desire to purchase the Welshman's hometown club and included financial numbers. The proposal was rejected but interest from the former Real Madrid winger in Cardiff remains strong — whereas he is not in the frame to acquire Plymouth Argyle, despite recent reports. Cardiff declined to comment. Advertisement Cardiff were mooted as a possible destination for Bale, 35, in 2022 after he left Real Madrid but he signed for LAFC instead, where he made 14 appearances before retiring after the World Cup in Qatar. The Welshman's potential involvement in Cardiff comes after his former Tottenham Hotspur and Madrid team-mate Luka Modric became a co-owner of their south Wales rivals Swansea City earlier this month. Bale, who announced his retirement as a player in January 2023, would be the latest big name to attach themselves to an ownership group of a team in the English Football League. NFL legend Tom Brady became Birmingham City's minority owner in August 2023, while American golfers Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas bought shares in Leeds United before their promotion to the Premier League in May. Cardiff have been a Premier League side as recently as 2018-19 but finished bottom of the Championship last season, two points off Plymouth in 23rd, recording only nine wins. Head coach Omer Riza was sacked in April and replaced on an interim basis by Bale's former international team-mate Aaron Ramsey, though he could not change their fortunes. Brian Barry-Murphy has been appointed head coach ahead of the 2025-26 season, as Cardiff prepare for their first campaign in the English third tier since 2003.

James Tibbs III reacts to being in Rafael Devers trade, excited for potential future with Red Sox

While the Red Sox will see Rafael Devers in his new San Francisco Giants uniform this weekend, it might be a while before Boston fans see any of the players the team received in the surprising blockbuster. That is unless they head to Worcester or Portland, Maine. While Devers is already mashing for the Giants, the four players the Red Sox received are either injured or in the minor leagues. Hard-throwing reliever Jordan Hicks is sidelined with a foot injury, while lefty starter Kyle Harrison, outfielder James Tibbs III, and pitcher Jose Bello will be taking the bus for the foreseeable future. Harrison was sent to Triple-A Worcester after Sunday's trade was completed, and has yet to make his debut for the WooSox. Tibbs, meanwhile, is now in Double-A Portland where he made his debut for the Sea Dogs on Tuesday. The outfielder/first baseman, who is currently ranked the No. 6 prospect in the Boston system, collected his first career hit at the Double-A level on Wednesday. On Thursday night, he went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI and two runs scored for Portland in a 7-6 loss to Akron. Tibbs spoke with WBZ-TV's and CBS News Boston's Joe Weil ahead of Thursday's game and shared his reaction to being traded to the Red Sox, an organization he had always hoped to be a part of. He just had to take a different and very unexpected route to join the Boston franchise. Tibbs' reaction to be traded to the Red Sox Devers was traded just hours after he hit a home run for Boston in a 2-0 win over the Yankees at Fenway Park. He and his teammates were about to board a flight and head off on a nine-game west coast swing, when Devers was pulled aside and told he had been dealt to San Francisco. Tibbs' trade story was just as interesting. He was wrapping up his final game with the Eugene Emeralds in High-A ball and had just worked a walk in the ninth inning. When he got to first base, he was surprised to see he was being lifted for a pinch runner. When Tibbs got back to the dugout, the team's pitching coach handed him a phone. The director of San Francisco's farm system was on the other end, and told Tibbs he had been traded to the Boston Red Sox. "My first thought was, 'Huh, no kidding. Alright.' A lot of emotion," Tibbs told Weil. "Definitely was very sad to leave those guys; I had a great time over there and had a blast with that group of guys in Eugene. But I was immediately so fired up to become a Red Sox." Tibbs got a taste for baseball in New England when he played for the Brewster Whitecaps of the Cape Cod Baseball League in 2023. "Being in New England and playing in the Cape, I knew the love for Boston sports and the Red Sox specifically," he explained. Then Tibbs started wondering how he ended up in Boston. "Then I was like, 'Alright, who was I traded for?' When I found out it was Devers, I was like, alright, this could go one of two ways. It went both ways for sure, with a lot of mixed emotions. I tried my best not to go on social media and get my feelings hurt," he said. While the reaction among Red Sox fans certainly swayed one way after the trade was announced, it didn't take away from Tibbs' excitement. He said it was extremely humbling to be in the trade package for a player like Devers. "To be a part of something like that, it's very cool, very humbling. Very appreciative of the Red Sox giving me a chance to come and play here," said Tibbs. "Couldn't be a better spot, a better opportunity. I'm ecstatic to be here." Tibbs in the Cape Cod Baseball League Tibbs put together a solid campaign for the Whitecaps in his lone season on the Cape, slashing .303/.390/.472 with six homers, six doubles, 25 RBI, and 17 runs scored over 40 games. He was drawn to the region that summer, and hoped to return for his pro career. "I remember walking away like, 'Wow. This place is fantastic.' The people, the places, there are so many cool spots here. I'm a big food guy, and the food is phenomenal so I'm excited to be back for that as well," he said. What food is Tibbs looking forward to scarfing down the most? "Clams and lobster," he said. "It's hard to beat." Tibbs was drafted by the Giants with the 13th overall pick out of Florida State in 2024. He was hoping to go to Boston at 12th overall, but the Red Sox picked Braden Montgomery instead. (Montgomery was traded to the White Sox in the Garrett Crochet trade over the offseason.) "This was a place I had hoped to play one day," Tibbs said of the Red Sox. "I had hoped they picked me in the draft, but they didn't and now I'm here anyways. Pretty funny how the circle comes around in full." Tibbs is hoping to get a crack at Fenway Park in the near future. He was supposed to get a chance to hit some batting practice at the famous ballpark during a prospect day while with Brewster, but it was canceled because of rain when he was on-deck. "It's always been in the back of my mind. At least if I play one game in the big leagues with the Giants, I had hoped it was at Fenway. Now I get the opportunity to call it home," he said. "It's even cooler for me and even cooler for us as a family."

Major U.S. Airlines Are Selling Your Data to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security—What to Know

Most travelers have never heard of the Airlines Reporting Corporation (ARC), but odds are their information has passed through this company, which is owned by eight major U.S. airlines. According to the ARC website, it is 'the world's largest, most comprehensive repository of global airline tickets.' This database was just sold to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)—a branch under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)—amid the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. The information includes passenger names, financial details, and passenger's flight itineraries, according to 404 Media. According to the Federal Procurement Data System, ARC signed a contract that gives U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) access to its Travel Intelligence Program (TIP) database through May 2028. An ARC representative said the TIP was 'created after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks to provide certain data … to law enforcement.' GovTribe, a software that tracks federal and state contracts, estimates that this contract is worth $776,750. Procurement documents obtained by The Lever and 404 Media state that ICE would be able to search this database using the names or credit card information of a 'traveler/target.' They will have access to 'full flight itineraries, passenger name records, and financial details, which are otherwise difficult or impossible to obtain.' Travel + Leisure reached out to the Department of Homeland Security, which referred questions to ICE. At the time of publication, ICE has not responded. 'I have never seen government access to ARC—or even ARC itself—mentioned in an airline privacy policy or a travel agency policy,' travel data privacy expert Edward Hasbrouck told The Lever. ARC is owned and operated by eight major airlines: Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines, American Airlines, Alaska Airlines, Air Canada, Lufthansa, and Air France. According to its website, ARC's database represents 54 percent of all flights taken globally. This data is collected directly from airlines and through accredited travel agencies. T+L reached out to all eight airlines. Alaska Airlines pointed to the ARC for a comment; the other seven carriers did not respond to questions at the time of publication. 'It's shocking to a lot of Americans right now that they don't have the rights in travel that they thought they did,' Joshua McKenty, former chief cloud architect at NASA and founder of Polyguard, told T+L. McKenty advised that travelers, especially foreign nationals visiting the United States, buy their own flights. He also said that immigration lawyers and others involved in the refugee process should not purchase their clients' tickets. Otherwise, their data might become affiliated in the eyes of the DHS. This data purchase is happening in parallel to the Real ID mandate, the increase in facial recognition programs at airports, and other changes in travel data privacy. 'The scariest parts of the biometrics are what travelers don't notice or think about,' McKenty said. For those who are not U.S. citizens, there is no guarantee that photos taken at airports will be deleted. In fact, according to Customs and Border Protection documents, 'All biometrics of in-scope [noncitizen] travelers are transmitted to IDENT/HART as encounters and are retained for 75 years in support of immigration, border management, and law enforcement activities.' (HART stands for Homeland Advanced Recognition Technology, and it is a DHS biometric identity database.) Last month, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) raised concerns about HART and wrote a letter imploring Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to take the urgent steps necessary to mitigate privacy risks. A GAO report warns that 'HART could be used beyond its intended scope, leading to surveillance of law-abiding individuals and communities.' Privacy experts also raise concerns around the DHS's collection of immigrant data, including its storage of children's DNA in a criminal database. Privacy is a human right, enshrined by Article 12 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. However, McKenty warned that a traveler's right to privacy is changing with government policies and is quickly being aligned with the priorities of the administration. McKenty recommends that everyone traveling stay aware of their rights in travel, or lack thereof. 'The idea that we should violate everyone's privacy, so we can look for anything that we as a government think is suspicious is just wrong,' McKenty said. 'We have protections against that as a behavior in every other aspect of government overreach.'
