Ticket prices

Has anyone one else looked around for tickets to the last couple of home games? They are ridiculously outrageous. I can understand wanting to get back what you put in but asking 150 for tickets to watch Arkansas, who has yet to win an SEC game, is atrocious. I understand it's the last Friday meeting for the 2 teams but cut me some slack. And the tickets are just as high if not higher for the A&M game than they were for the Bama game last year. I know that tickets can be bought on game day for a much lower price, that's usually how I obtain my tickets. But some people aren't the gambling type and would like to get decent tickets for a decent price before traveling a couple hours to see a game. I'm not getting into the argument of empty seats and complaining fans about gameday experience, just making an observation. Geaux Tigers!

Supply and demand.
I normally sell the games I don't go to for face.
I've been a season ticketholder since Dinardo era and there were games I couldn't give tickets away.

So what you're saying is that ticket holders who don't always use their tickets should take a hit on the crappy games and sell for less than face, and give away the premium games? Ok

If they are sideline tickets that's about the cost with face value and tradition fund. If they come through TAF it would be more

I'm with ya that they are outrageous from ticket brokers, I bought an over priced ticket last year for the Bama game last season. I won't do it again as I have met enough people while networking or though work that if I wanna geaux somebody will get me a decent priced ticket. No more over paying for me. There are a lot of LSU fans that will sale em face value or make a little profit but not claw your eyes out

That is basically what the LSU ticket office & TAF are asking some season ticket holders pay for Ark.. I suggest you contact Joe Alleva.

On the day of the Arkansas game, go to your tailgate, drink, eat, relax, and around kick off walk around the stadium hoisting your fingers high in the air. Then wait...pleople are very flexible on prices especially when they have 9 tickets for sale 15 minutes before the game.

If you don't want to go to the Furman game I'll buy your tickets. I'd like to take my daughter and I'm one of those that like to have tix in hand before I get there. jakewilson312@hotmail.com

They are ridiculously outrageous.
The supply was even more plentiful for the other games.

Ark is always multitudes easier to get tickets for. This year with a mediocre Ark team I'd expect that the week of the game, they drop nicely.

Plenty of people claim "oh any time that you have extras let me know! I'll take them." But when it comes time......"uhhhhh. yeah. ummmm. I've got a hangnail."

If you're are looking for Arkansas tickets there will be plenty available for face value or less. Hell LSU ticket office will be selling tickets for face the week of the game. Happens every year we play Arky at home. I bought 4 tickets through LSU on the drive down from Bossier the day before the game in 2011 when LSU was undefeated!!

Stubhub has Arky tickets for $64 each. Or you can go to the stadium and get them for virtually nothing. Or you can go on the internet and complain about capitalism.

I do think this is contributing to the no shows. I'd be curious how many of the empty seats to Florida were seats someone was trying to sell on Stub Hub for double face value?

I burned mine so the poors couldnt piece them together

Ohh well i shipped the pieces to different places.

Ill tell you after all my fees, my tickets came out to be $200 per game per seat. Its not out of the question to ask fir $300 a ticket for the tamu game. Biggest game on schedule. So selling at face value would put me in the hole big time.

Are you semi retarded? Tickets outside the stadium are easy to come by on game day at face or below.

Nobody gives a rats arse what your tickets cost you.
Only thing that matters is what the market is willing to pay.
