Anybody have a clue what these are, and what they get you?

Do you get to stay for the entire game?
Just curious.

You get to stay on the sideline though pregame, warmups, see the band come out and all that , and then they make you leave.

It's a cool experience but the band sound is different than being up in the stands.

But its definitely worth experiencing it once.

I believe you're able to be on the sidelines during pre-game warmups only, but not during band pre-game or during the game.

I had a pregame pass on the field and I stayed while the band came out and when the players came out I was also on the sideline. After the band passed through the portal they made me exit to my seats

you stay until the team comes out...they are sold at various charity auctions.

I got to stay for the pregame. My hair actually blew forward from behind when the students acknowledged the band's salute in their direction. And you CAN smell the booze. It was awesome!!!

I got one of these lined up for my brother last year and it was as others have explained. He enjoyed being on the field and seeing the players come out. Then it was right back up to his seat in the stands.

I'd like to be on the field during a big game so I can actually know how loud it can get. I'd think it'd sound louder than it does in the stands.

LSU seems to be really strict about who they let on the sidelines during the game. I'm always amazed when I see other colleges with tons of people standing around. Did anyone see how many people were just standing there in the Oregon State-USC game last night?

it seems as though David Toms is always on the sidelines...I thought I even saw him during the Auburn game on the side?

Cool. Thanks for the info guys.
I'm flying in tomorrow for the game, and got those passes. Looking forward to seeing it first hand.

make sure you're in the student section for the pregame when the band turns toward the student section is when it's the best.

Like everyone else said, once the band leaves, you leave. Have fun and bring your camera.

Subway is having a sign up in the stores soon and it will include passes, suite tickets, and hotel stay. Keep your eyes open. Go in and sign up for this at stores in the BR metropolitan area. Coming soon, I don't know when.

I've done it about 4 times. Very cool experience and definitely worth it.

Beats me. My Dad got them for being an honorary guest captain a few times and other times through his connections.
