Me: Can you tell me why I'm paying more for my parking pass tradition fund fees than I am for the actual parking pass?

Football office: That's the way the cookie crumbles I guess.

Wth?

They’ll just raise the cost of the parking pass to fix that for you

I mean, you keep paying it, so what's the problem?

That's just smart business on their part.

Parking fee goes to campus for cleaning up and profit

Tradition fee goes to Athletics/TAF

The HC for the football team makes 10 million a year. I thought it was ridiculous to pay Saban when he was hired in 1999 a million. Do the math. I always said, eventually LSU was going to start charging for tailgating. This went back to the Dinardo Era.

My parking pass doesn't have a Tradition Fund fee.

EDIT: I just re-read your OP and it appears you're referring to a football parking pass not a baseball parking pass which is what I have. My bad.

My parking pass has a Tradition fund too. My total cost for parking has gone up 58% compared to last season.

Just saying.

Get ready for that price to skyrocket once schools are allowed to pay athletes directly

frick all that. The amount of money people flush down the toilet to watch LSU sports is out of control. What Lil Wayne say? It ain’t tricking if you got it.

Wave bye and cancel your season tickets.
No regrets and don’t look back.

Why are you entitled to an answer? If you don’t like price increases then don’t buy it.

There’s price increases everywhere and you’re asking why? Get real dude.

I have season tickets with a few different athletic departments. Texas, g tech, Florida , and many more. And when I say LSU is the most difficult to deal with I genuinely mean that. Slow response time, everything is always difficult etc

Why should.you have to pay for parking at all? Football games occur when school campus is closed.
