The cutoff for two season tickets together the past three years was as follows:

2009 3033
2010 4141
2011 4060

For 2012, I'm predicting around 3000. The cutoff goes up and down depending on the won/loss record of the team for the previous year.

The year after we won the 2007 National Championship, the season ticket renewal rate was around 99.5%. The year after we lost five games, the renewal rate was 97%. (Thanks a lot Ryan Perrillioux).

Depends on WHERE you want them.

For example -- this season 2 side by side lower bowl East side tickets would stop at roughtly 120 Priority Points (not sure of the rank)... but 120 points.

Less points and higher rankings for uppers and the NEZ... althought NEZ ranking was not all that much different than East sidelines.

West sidelines were not even quoted to me when I asked TAF. FWIW

people that say "donate $5000" and you'll get tickets --- don't know what the F they are talking about.... a $5K donation to TAF would get you 5 points toward your points.... $5K to the LSU foundation would get you 1/3 of that -- 1.67 points.

Donating $100 to TAF gets you 3 points per year.

I dont really care where they are. Cause i will just take whatever i can get then just try an upgrade every year. I believe someone last year said 15 Phil points puts you around 4000 rank range

15 Points would put you at around 4000 in Philanthropic Priority Point rank .... not sure in Priority Points.

That whole thing still confuses me, honestly.

I don't have tickets, but I give to TAF and the LSU Foundation.

My points are ~12 and my Priority Point Rank in ~8500 and my Philanthropic PP rank is about 4400.

Another year of TAF donation at $100 will add 3 points and if I cough up $1000 for a 2:1 point TAF project, I can realistically get to 16 points for next season.... I think that is worth getting on the waiting list for, I suppose... but probably not down to the 3000 rank range if that'w what it will take ... and I agree IF LSU wins the BCS Championship... there will be a rush to buy and renew so it'll take more to qualify.

PS -- I had season tickets for 2009 in the West Upper on the end section.

The view was ok, but I didn't even try to buy them again (I bought in the "after market" that year).

I can only make a couple games a year in BR - especially if I try to make a "road" game or 2 --- so, I'll probably just take my chances on a game to game basis until I'm so flush with cash that spending $175 per ticket for games I don't go to doesn't bother me.... 'cause you will NOT re-coup the investment without selling the biggest game of the year... and if you sell that one... why bother... it's "entertainment" not a money making investment in my opinion.
