Trip to TS

Anything 400 and below is best seats in the house and for Bama tickets you will be looking at anywhere from 150-1500, 150$ tickets being nose bleeds and up... Best hotels to stay are probably 4-5 miles from the stadium.

Absolutely serious!

It's better if I'm there in person. My flat mates don't appreciate me shouting at the tv at 3am on a Tuesday morning (that was the bcs game). Time difference sucks!

LSU has several hotels on campus, but those rooms will fill up early. You can try the Lod Cook Hotel or the LSU Faculty Club.

If those are full, you should probably try downtown Baton Rouge. A lot of live music and restaurants there and it's about a 3 mile walk from there to LSU along the Mississippi River Levee walking path.

Good bama tickets will be about $250 each at a fair price. Miss. St. Will be about $50.

Good Bama tickets this year will be around $250+, depending on where both teams are ranked by game-day. If you really want to do this right, I'd book a hotel in New Orleans, somewhere on the edge of the quarter, like Le Pavillion, so you can sleep. Then, I'd rent a car (limo) and drive up on game day. You're welcome at our tailgate out in Touchdown Village II. We've got a 34-foot RV and about 20+ folks, all ages. Spend game-day morning on campus. Go see Mike, watch the team/band come down the hill.

How did you start liking LSU football LSU London?..Do you all get to see all the TV games over there?

My biggest question is what game can I go to that will be a night game? It's going to have to be Towson or some crappy game like that. I hate traveling from Maryland and the game getting switched to daytime.
Not much I can do but go see less than worthy opponent where the game won't be moved.
Unless I drop the bucks to see Bama.

Living in Minnesota, and going to 5 or 6 Tiger games per year, I think I know something about ticket prices for the games. I believe that you received some misleading info.

First of all, find yourself a seating map of Tiger Stadium. If you must sit in the upper deck due to financial constraints, choose one of the first rows! For Alabama, you'd be fortunate to get that ticket for less than $300.

Lower Bowl seats along either sideline are good, but pricey. End zone seats are much less expensive and not totally undesireable. For Alabama game, a sideline lower bowl seat will cost you at least $600, probably more.

You might save money by cruising the ticket exchange here on TD or at Dandy Don's.

To get a feel for prices, the biggest selection is at Subhub. It is expensive to do business with them for both the buyer and the seller, but the inventory of seats and prices is excellent.

For the MSU game, expect to pay about half of what you pay for Alabama.

Geaux Tigers!

As someone said earlier in the thread, college drive, particularly constitution avenue will be your best bet. I believe there are 3-4 hotels on that strip.

that's awesome! make sure to watch the band go down the hill
