So I see today I can't just buy a Lot 407 pass for the Florida game. LSU is trying to make me buy not one, but two passes for the Arkansas game, and one for either Furman or Kent State.

Jesus, why doesn't the AD just stand at the gates and make us turn our pockets inside out when we come on campus.

it's easier to get the funds electronically through credit cards and debit cards

well everyone wants a parking pass to florida. i understand people live out of town and cant make every game, but to expect to just be able to buy a coveted parking pass to the biggest game of the year is asking a lot.

its like if someone offers you furman tickets and you say "naw im gonna watch it on tv, but keep an eye out for a&m tickets for me. im looking for 6 together"

sure thing pal ill do that.

Why don't you just sell the other passes they are making you buy?

Its the same reason they dont let everyone just buy individual football tickets. No one would buy the shitty games. It would be stupid not to. If you can't afford it don't buy it. Otherwise do what I do and consider it a donation to the university for the shitty games and a bonus to have good parking for the good ones.

They could just build the cost of the parking passes into the ticket price and include them automatically, then let the secondary market handle reallocation of the parking passes.

you are assuming that everyone who wants a parking pass wants to go in the game too.

also assuming everyone who wants a ticket wants to pay for a parking pass. that seems like a bad idea honestly.

It's basic supply and demand. If you don't buy the parking pass, along with all the conditions, someone else will.

I probably will. And I can understand grouping with Arkansas. I would have taken it better if they charged $250 each for Ark and Florida. But having to buy Furman?

I'll be going to every game anyways, just needed a Florida pass for FIL's motor home. On the bright side, maybe it'll just be me, my wife, and my son going.
