Questions for former football season ticket holders.

Sorry to say, no regrets.

I've had tickets my whole life (had kid tickets as a teen, then tickets on 35 x 25+ years). Its not just the cost. Now I've got weekends free again. Stub hub ain't cheap, but I can get as many tickets together as needed. (I'd rather spring for 2-3 games w/ multiple people than a whole season w 2) Easier to justify away games.

Finally, I went from not leaving until the last second, rain or shine; to leaving at half. Probably better to step aside and let more committed fans stay for the whole game.

Gave mine up in 2018 for same reasons as others have posted. Had mine since 95. Had family tickets before that.

For me to go to games, it’s a flight and hotel—but that was a fixed cost for me that I knew about going in.

What killed it for me was the entire experience just not being as enjoyable. Just became a complete (and expensive) beating.

ETA: zero regrets. In fact, I’m thrilled about it.

No regrets at all. Gave mine up in 2020 after 25 great years. Game day experience wasn’t worth the hassle anymore. Crappy piped in music, horrible concessions and post game traffic are now in my past. It’s great having my weekends back. I do miss the big games but the horrendous non sec games are not worth my time anymore. I travel more now to away games and I would rather spend my time and money doing this.

No regrets here. We're in Michigan but flew down for most home games. We gave ours up in 2020 but only because our grandson is now playing tackle football on Saturdays. Don't want to miss those games.

What's different, is we can jump back in whenever we want and besides keeping the seats that you have (and maybe some TAF points), there is literally zero advantage to holding on to tickets that you may not use as much for a few years.

CFB is changing and it isn't going back. I still have 2 tickets but sold them last season. I have MBB and baseball season tickets as well. I prefer the baseball games now. I have a parking permit right next to the Box and can be in my seats from the parking lot in 5 minutes.

My 14 yr old son wants to keep going to football so I am probably going to keep as long as he wants to go. Once he is done I will give them up.

Family had 8 tickets for over 40 years. Many friends and family met at the RV for a day long party and get together. Some went to game on other tickets and others partied at RV for game.

It was very expensive and a great deal of work, but we felt it worth while. Then LSU put the show covid papers rule into effect and we gave up tickets, parking, and fund forever.

One friend of mine and his wife sat every game on acquired tickets. They often got free to $10 tickets to early hot games against no competition. They often paid face value sans fund-fee for SEC games. They occasionally paid multiple face value for the 1 or 2 Big Games. Considering face cost and fund fees for season tickets he paid about 40% of my tickets even including scalpers big game costs!

We now meet over a TV with most of the usual gang. Much easier and cheaper, good times are good times. But, some like above friend still go to BR so we no longer share game. However, after LSU stopped demanding my medical records, I went to the Florida game with them and sat for free. And LSU won!

Just met with all stakeholders of our old tickets for a family party, and I asked them if they regretted the F you LSU decision? We gave a 100% NO! I will sit in Tiger Stadium again. But it will be when I want and at a discount!

You must decide for yourself.

Edit: fixed some typos, but really want to find out what the butt hurt is for the down voters.

Tickets in my family since 1958 and I finally got rid of them in 2013. Not a single regret. I’ve gone to every single game I’ve wanted to go to since then without the hassle of going to games I didn’t really want to go to but went anyway since I had season tickets.

I’ve never paid more than $100 for a ticket in BR or on the road and I’ve been to some big games home and away.

I'm on the other side of this equation. Been going to game for a while but just got season tickets in 2018. I might feel different if I had tickets for 26 years but for now I still want my meager little 2 tickets. Might end up giving them to my son in a few years, he graduated in December from LSU.

We got tickets in 2018 (upper chairbacks) because there were two games I wanted to attend, Georgia and Alabama) and figured that it would be almost as cheap to get season tickets as to buy tickets after the fact. My wife loved the experience so much that she decided it was worth the money to keep getting them (her reluctance to spend the money was the hold back for me the whole time ).

But I can see why anyone would be hesitant to continue. Concessions suck, traffic in and especially out is a mess, unless you have some established tailgating setup you probably don't get much out of that now and the weather can sometimes be less than pleasant.
