It’s not that bad but what is actually happening between 20s - no shows

It’s hard to fill up 102k, and that’s understandable but curious what is actually going on. Lsu sold the game out and there were less than 300 tickets on the ticket broker sites on Saturday.
Yet there were 1000+ empties on the sidelines, the best seats in the stadium. Do these people/corporate ticket owners not even try to resell them?

What's going on at the games that middle-aged and older , upper income folks might not like?
The tickets were paid for in May, game day decision if they're going or not, three o'clock comes, ahhh, naaa, too late to bother getting rid of the tix.

Corporate tickets
Dying atmosphere
Age/hassle of entire day
Televised games/comfort of staying home
Prices/resale value
Then the normal excuses, concessions, traffic, DJ, PVC pipe.

I was on East sideline. Unless they were behind me, I didn’t see 1,000s of empty seats. The stadium was full and loud early on.
Lots of people on campus!

Top corners were empty. He’s talking about the gold seats. There were a lot of empty seats for an SEC night game.

Why I’ll never attend a game!

East side line guy here, only emptied out around me once we went up 23 late in the 4th. Did notice the west was empty, not surprised though. TAF holds a lot of seats. No surprise the Greeks and student athletes leave their prized western sideline seats before half.
I would love to switch over there, too bad priority points will never give me a chance. They just buy them up to resell or give away and LSU could care less since they are paid for

Yep lots of kid events throughout the day such as soccer matches, cross country meets, fall baseball practice/tournaments, etc. Parents get home and decide they don’t want to get out again to fight the traffic getting to and from the game.
Plus you have individuals that have been tailgating all day and decide to stay and watch the game from the tailgate or go home because it’s been a long day.

Those gold seats were turned into a cocktail-like environment yrs ago. Long time season ticket holders, rich folks, have passed down their tickets to their rich kids . It's just a party to that crowd now.

College football issue not just an lsu issue

I was in the west uppers last night. What pisses me off is how the East sideline can go from 90% full at kickoff to 70% full after the first quarter.

I've had great tickets to give away for our company. We give them to clients, but they often back out at the last minute.
I had suite tix go unused for the Saints and that was the year they won the Super Bowl. I went to the Minnesota game because a client backed out on four tix.

Maybe at the end of the first quarter the ushers should do a count of empty seats and let that many people in that would line up at a gate for a chance to be there. Could even make some small revenue on this. Maybe $25 a seat. Cannot be a season ticket holder.

Winning puts asses in the seats. It’s been true since there were asses and seats.

I spoke to everyone of them. It was haunted houses and corn mazes

Not entirely true at all. Got to attend a Wisconsin game last weekend at Camp Randall. 11am kickoff playing freaking Rutgers. Place was packed for 4 qtrs.
Also went to a Nebraska/Minnesota game last year at Neb. They sucked on the year and lost 20-13 but place was absolutely stuffed from kickoff until the end.

Sit in the north end zone tons of empty sideline seats
Posted on 10/15/23 at 10:09 am to TigersD69
100k is vanity. I think the most thats ever been in the stadium was a good 15k less than max.
Capacity should be 80k.

This was my first home game in 5 years. Huge drop off in atmosphere. No shows, students not near as rowdy, band not near as loud or even participatory!
