LOL. If people are paying $800 to watch women's basketball that is a sign of the apocalypse.

If you want to take a kid for cheap, can pretty much choose any other game where tickets can be had for $10 or less.
You're right. It wasn't about taking his kid. It was about him going to see LSU vs South Carolina.

I gotta side with TIGRLEE on this one.

He doesn't "hate women" because he doesn't want to attend a women's b-ball game. I wouldn't go either.

And I am happily married with two daughters. And I love Kim Mulkey and am thrilled our ladies won the NC last year, and hope they do it again.

But women's basketball is unwatchable. Sorry, it just is.

And that has NOTHING to do with "hating women."

It is entertainment. Not a sports value. Look at prices for the Savannah Banana thing versus and SEC series with your defending national champs. Folks would rather watch a pitcher dance than watch one throw a three hit shut out.

Those prices are people who are planning on going to the game but posted tickets for that price just in case someone decided to pay it.

Go sit in the nosebleeds then. You don't have to pay $500 for a ticket.

You naive little boy. I guess you didn't see LSU put up over 100 in the title game.

Instead of crying about it you should be happy that LSU has a women's basketball team where ticket prices are demanding $6-800 dollars.

That’s fricking retarded

You understand that you’re one of tens of thousands of people who had the same idea, right? The PMAC seats about 13k. A bit over half of that is taken up by people who go to every game. That leaves about 5k tickets to be spread around to the tens of thousands of people who want to go to this game in particular.

And people are shocked, shocked! That they can’t get for a song those same tickets that everyone else wants

People can ask whatever they want that doesn’t mean they are getting it. The media loves to use what people are asking on Stubhub and Seatgeek.


I know for a fact that some of those $800 tickets are selling for that price. Have a family member who put theirs up on StubHub and got that price. In the 100 section close to midcourt.

Yes it does. Don’t want to watch? Fine. But you and others shite in these threads because you don’t want others watching women’s sports either. You wouldn’t go out of your way if you didn’t feel threatened (which you shouldn’t).

LSUWBB averages OVER 9,000 in their seats per game this season. When students are on campus that average goes up to over 10,000. There probably will be over 13,000 in their seats Thursday night.

Season tickets holder bought over 9k of the seats.. they then had the option to pick up more individual games ..I had lots of friends ask that I pick up games for them.. it is pretty much packed for every game.. they then sold the individual games and proactive people picked up some seats.. I think they keep about 500 seats for people to buy game to game just to make it available to some people.. they could have sold them also pre season..

Supply and demand and forward planning…

See y’all there…

Geaux Tigers….
