Since the mid 50's. My Aunt was an AVID LSU fan. They had no children, so she treated me and my siblings as her own. I was the only one who went to LSU and so I became the favorite. So, after I graduated from LSU they transferred their tickets to me as a gift because they were no longer able to attend regularly. I have awesome seats that I would never have been able to get on my own thanks to them.

Since 1961 (47+ years). My Dad got them when he joined the LSU faculty. Transferred them to me a few years ago.

My dad got his in 1972. I started going at the age of 7 in 1985 and have been going ever since.

Had them since early 40's. Used to have 2 whole rows between the 40's but over the years we are down to 4 seats on one row and 8 on the other. Got them from my Grandparents and sitting on the 40's for my lifetime has been great however if the TAF goes up again i might want to move to the endzone.

my grandfather bought 4 and his neighbor bought 7 together on the same row in the south endzone when it was closed in. the same families still have the seats, except it's the grandkids sitting there now.

had my dad's from 67 till 96 when my ex wife didn't forward them to me and let them lapse.
couldn't get them back b/c they were the primo sideline seats the TAF or whoever wanted to boost the price of.

needless to say, I wasn't happy.

Chuckie, you let little thing like faling to do a change of address form deny you your seats?

Where is James Carville? He has some great history on his seats.

Not sure exactly. I'm pretty we've had them since the late 70's/early 80's. I was born in '89, and they've been in my family since before I was born.

We've had ours for about 50 years - my grandfather bought 3 rows in the SEZ for our family and we're still using them today!

My 78-year-old grandmother, God bless her, still comes to every home game and still gets into it! I must say, seeing her attempt to do the Neck dance is quite amusing.
