I've noticed the LSU ticket marketplace is now using StubHub. In the past you could buy tickets at face value plus the LSU fee.

Now it is powered by StubHub where the prices can vary.

Here is what ticket prices look like for Friday's opener.



I can't see the market supporting these kinds of prices when for virtually every game you can purchase tickets outside the Box.

Anyone who pays $151.50 for a seat in section 104 for a college baseball game in February, please post a picture of yourself so we can see what a real fool looks like. Thanks in advance.

Asking price doesn't always equal getting price.

That's a joke
No one should pay above face value for baseball until regionals, if that
I tried to log in to sell some for Saturday because I can't make it and I don't want to use it.
Ticket Marketplace was perfect for baseball, you didn't have to do anything but post them

I sold a lot of my weeknight games on the marketplace. I feel like I won't be able to sell any on stubhub because of fees

it's apparent that the LSU ticket office doesn't want to be bothered with giving credit to season ticket holders who used Marketplace to sell their unwanted tickets.

I may just drive to the game, park in the free lot and just look for someone selling tickets. Actually some people just give tickets away at those games. I would even buy off one of the scalpers if I could keep him under 20 bucks. This stub hub is beyond stupid. It may allow more tickets to be sold for football, but for baseball and basketball where no-one will want to pay over face value, it is pointless. I did kind of like the system they used in Omaha, you could bid for a ticket under what the person is offering or you could just buy what they were offering. Prices were still above face value, but it worked out well. Of-course it was worth it to pay above face value for the CWS.

The Scalpers will probably sell more tickets outside of the box because of this.

where?

last year more than once I got seats in the grand stands for 15 bucks a piece. I think I even got gold seats for 15 bucks a piece. You will be lucky to get 1 under 50 bucks in that section.

This place makes me laugh

59 bucks a piece for row 10 in the outfield bleachers, for a February game?

I feel so sorry for the losers who sit out for a few hours on a game night to make $35 selling baseball tickets.

that's what I thought, I've seen people give away their tickets outside the stadium. I will never use Stub Hub.
