Honestly there are always plenty on sale. Most people dont charge more than what they paid. But either way you will be paying for more than face value of each ticket because of TAFF. I buy mine off a buddy that's had them in his family for years and we just have it set up where i pay LSU on a plan.

Check the ticket exchange on a regular basis. A lot of people will sell their season tickets for what they pay for them (including taff) before the season starts. That's you best option to get tickets in the lower bowl.

Call TAF. They can give you a rough estimate of how much you need to donate.

If you are patient and want to spend little, donate 100 dollars to TAF every year. You should have enough points to get upper deck tickets at the end of five years.

if you are impatient, donate 5 grand this year. You may or may not get the chance at tickets, but with the addition you may get lucky.

If you donate five grand this year and five grand next year, you will likely get the chance at lower bowl tickets for 2015.

For the rest of your life, donate at least 100 bucks to taf each year you accrue a lot of points over time by donating that little.

That is a guideline. Call TAF for details. I did and they personally did a town visit and took me to lunch. They explained everything and made suggestions based upon my goals.

Join TAF, send them a check and get on the list. Bigger the check shorter the wait. I would think there will be lots of tickets becoming available in the next two years due to many factors. Good Luck

Best strategy:
Every April, deposit onto a savings account the money you'd pay to buy season tickets. Including TAF "donation". Then spend as much as necessary to buy the best available seat for each game from a ticket board on line or outside the stadium. You'll have better seats than you could get through LSU/TAF, and after 20 years you'll have enough money to put your kids ( or grandkids, or both) through college.

they really are not worth it, esp with us only have 1 or 2 decent home games a year.

For the first time in my adult life I had to miss some home games last year and couldnt even give the tickets away.

You are much better off just going game by game.

1. Become negatiger
2. Discuss how Les is running the program into the ground
3. Hope it actually occurs
4. Season tickets open
5. Profit
