re: Only 6000 tickets sold to Tiger fans for Outback Bowl

People will be geting 3x face for every game, especially that Wisconsin home opener!

It is in Houston -- only 2 hours from SW LA and home to the largest concentration of LSU graduates outside the state of LA ..... FACE value for good tickets (lower bowl, center sections) is $300 --- they are trying to "compete" with Jerry World on ticket prices .... but the thing that's really driving them UP through the roof is the payout to the schools.

UW was offered a couple million and still wanted to further negotiate ---- I'm sure LSU gets a like share ---- which costs the fans out that wazzou.

All about the money.... but at least UW vs. LSU should be a good game! I will be there -- 6 tickets in the center already ordered and paid for --- with a $115 "add on" for the Texas Bowl tickets I had to buy as a "package" and had to GIVE away because I couldn't find buyers on StubHub etc. at $50 each....

So, my cost for 45 - 45 yard line tickets for UW NEXT season stands at $415 per ticket ---- I can't imagine what some folks will be listing them for on StubHub around Augsust 1 next year.
