I understand now. I know I had gotten an email about the priority games in the spring and they were all 2 points. If I got credit for all the games I paid for out of pocket last fall I could have got Florida tickets but oh well, I was more interested in Auburn after all the comments on here about bad experiences in Gainesville.

So how can I get credit for a second away game without buying the tickets on the black market?

The BCSNCG was less than the cutoff for ATM. That's crazy. I know it was a lot more expensive and we probably were given many more tickets

If you are asking how you receive priority points for a ticket that you buy (say from stubhub or a friend) that you did NOT get as a student ticket through the ticket office (like your ATM ticket), you don't.

I did this last year, I bought a ticket through LSU for Ole Miss that was NOT a student ticket (it was after the deadlene and it was a ticket the genral public could buy through LSU since they had leftovers) and I was not able to receive priority points.

If you are asking how you buy a student Florida ticket that you will receive priority points for, you can't either.


So, if you didn't buy a student ticket before the deadline (which it clearly is now), then you can't still get priority points. (From my talks with the ticket ofice and past experiences)

I love hearing people beg for student tickets when they had plenty of time to request...I'm not even a student anymore and I have aTm and Arky student tix on lock.

ah yes, just like those angry about their away game ticket awards, we all know LSU is unfair and treats the 'real fans" terrible..its all a conspiracy because ALL TAF MEMBERS are rich fat cats and never go to games and its all corporate now and we are unlike any other Top program and treat our real fans and students terribly. it is all so unfair and no one at LSU cares and all fans should get to go to any game and sit at the 50 and pay nothing and never stand in line and not apply before the deadlines...and A&M should give us all the tickets we need for free just like we give them and every other team except LSU takes care of all real fans the right way...darn!

I'm not begging for anything, I got all the tickets I requested and understand how it works.

As for Ole Miss last year, I had no intention of going until 2 weeks before, so I bought one from the athletic department and called just to see if it was possible to get points because I was unsure.

But if your post wasn't meant as a response to me, then disregard my post.

It wasn't, just a quick response.

Just telling how much fun it is to see the FB posts for people already asking who wants to sell those away game tix.

this is ridiculous. i just graduated and am going to grad school at lsu, had 4 home student ticket packages, away games, bcsncg ticket, etc. but i did not get an A&M ticket!! 125 pts and you need 131. B-fricking-S. E-mailed the ticket office, like that will do anything. Anyone think calling would do anything?

I graduated this past Spring. 4 years of college = 4 home game packages.....

What pisses me off even more is I know people that graduated, got the away game ticket e-mail. And got the ticket, even though they don't go to LSU anymore. They fricked up.

Okay, you went to 6 home games: 120
BCS: 5
Away Games: 10 at minimum since you said games

That is 135, which gets you A&M tickets.

No. You fricked up. You did this for 4 years, you know when the tickets come available for request.

No, I did not. I just don't have enough points. I requested the ticket on time. What I mean here is that I know numerous people who do not currently attend LSU anymore after they graduated this past May, yet still requested an A&M ticket. I don't know yet if they got said ticket, trying to figure that out. I'm saying that the ticket office fricked up by even sending that e-mail out to those previous students.

Oh. Your implication of the email made it sound like you didn't get the email and forgot.

You should have plenty of points based on what you stated, though.

They send the email out because the Ticket Office doesn't know who is continuing on into grad school, a dual degree program, or didn't pass finals and will be here in the fall.

They match the lists up with the Fall Enrollment, though so if someone did request them who wasn't a student anymore...they won't be able to receive them.

OP, the ticket office MAY HAVE messed up, but why post a flaming crying email when it now looks likely they did NOT. If thye did come back and tell us otherwise stop spreading your "life is unfair bull" around here...
