People need something to complain about. We got the best time slot, against a beatable opponent, so natural the Rant found some trivial nonsense to cry about.



People deserve to know how their government works. It's called transparency.

And "the people" didn't look into this. The Advocate did.

I'm sure there would be plenty of people that would argue that one.

There are plenty of people that would argue all sorts of things.

ETA: And I totally get your point btw. Some people will not appreciate that these guys, whom I presume aren't season ticket holders for the most part, get first crack at a few of the tickets. But this is such a nonstory.

Yeah, those legislators aren't going to stand in the LSU ticket office line for 8:00 AM Friday morning to purchase outfield bleacher seats.

Now you're just full of shite.

Tickets are not available right now to anyone except season ticket holders.

Oh, and the state legislature.

Nope. They are given preference. "Anyone else" is on a first come, first served basis. "Anyone else" can only buy those two tickets if the legislator doesn't want them. If "Anyone else" wants them, the legislator still gets them. Not at all equal treatment.

I guess... and I really don't care b/c I'm a season ticket holder anyway.

I just think it's laughable.
