I can't make the game but have thought of buying a pair and donating to someone or a charity that could see to it that people who ordinarily can't make a game can go. I know in the past for example there was an online option for Saints tix to donate them to charity. It's tough to organize anything on a large scale on short notice, but it would be nice if LSU could facilitate something as another way to give while also driving attendance.

A charity ticket donation benefits in multiple ways. A poor family, military member, etc. gets in free; LSU looks better by having a full(er) stadium; USCe has more crowd noise to deal with; USCe has less of a hole in their budget, and the donor gets a tax deduction.

Win-Win all around.

ETA: I see now there's a way to upload tix to vettix.org

To sit in the sun for a 2:30 game when they likely have better things to do? Doubt it.

I listed all those occupations as examples of other groups of people that tickets could be purchased for and donated to.
