How do these work? Do you just buy these and sit anywhere in the outfield? How early do you have to enter the stadium?

GA tickets can be used for any game, sit anywhere in the outfield. Depending on the game, you may have to get in line several hours before first pitch.

You can buy them individually ($10) or in books of 10 for $70.

I got there yesterday at around 3 and waited in line. Had a pretty good selection of where I wanted to sit.

I think by the time I was actually in the stadium it was 5:15 or so.

I had reserves tickets, I would not want to try the GA line! When I get back to my computer I'll post a picture that I took of the GA line literally wrapping half way around Rosenblatt!!!

For the GA, during the weekend, you better be in line early, at least 3 to 4 hours for the afternoon game.

During the week it was not so bad, however I had reserved seats for yesterday's game, so I didn't have to get in line. There were people waiting in line for the night game at 11am yesterday.

They have people on the streets selling GA tickets. That is how I got mine. $10 a piece.

Get there plenty early, talking hours here. For the early games, parking is not too tough to come by, if you want to pay a little for it. When I lived in Omaha, I used to park at a little Catholic church down the street and walk maybe a half mile to a mile. Late games are harder to get good parking, but it can be done. Have fun at the game.

Here's a SMALL PART of the GA line for ASU-UNC on Sunday:



The full line zigzagged back & forth down the side of the hill several times.

And this is just to get into the left field bleachers. Right field bleachers is another line.

Get in line 2-3 hrs before the game and you will be ok, Reserved tickets are hard to come by. We did get some but we decided to get rid of them and sit in the outfield it is much more fun. I am 44 and my boys are 17 and 13. We were first in line, got there about 10:45, the time flew by, did it for both games, if you need to get out of line as long as you talk to the security staff you will be ok, We would get out for as long as an hour at a time. We did sit in reserve for part of the Texas / SMU game, not nearly as fun IMO

What time do the gates open for people to start claiming seats in GA seating?

As I recall, gates open two hours before first pitch.

I sat in the bleachers for the first time Sunday. It is fun, but I wouldn't want to do it for an LSU game.

Prepare to wait in line, in the sun, several hours to get tickets - unless you spend some money with the guys on the street.

I dont know about a 1 pm game, but I got in line about 10:30 for the 6 pm game (I know it was early but we had a good time) first in line, we sit on the front row. For a 1 o'clock game I would say get in line about 9:30 - 10 they will start letting you in at 11

for the arkansas game i didnt feel like waiting in the GA line. I walked outside the stadium and in 10 minutes was able to purchase a reserved ticket for $20 and go straight into the stadium. Idk if this is easy to do or i just got lucky?
