It would be really great to see some company in La, purchase a huge block of tickets and then donate them to military members and their family, or first responders.

It would make a difference to the families who get to go for free.

I am also surprised that large blocks have been snapped up and distributed to the military, etc.

ExxonMobil, CocaCola, and others are missing out on a great way to give back !!!

I'm sure LSU would offer a hefty corporate discount for a company wanting to purchase 10,000 tickets

Im sure the sales people at LSU Sports properties have been on the phone all week offering these discounts to their major sponsors.

I would also bet that these sponsors are telling them to eat a dick too.....

The big companies in South LA tend to be oil related, and as an employee that is witnessing layoffs and mothballing, employees would rightfully lose their shite if that happened.

It's getting really really ugly in that sector down here.

if shell had more advanced notice, they could have tied some tickets into their severance packages.
