I'm planning a trip the weekend of October 11th (SCAR) from out of town. I've been to quite a few games myself, but hoping to introduce 2 friends to LSU football.

When would y'all think is the best time to buy tickets? We can't really wait 'till last second, as we're flying in.

Looking at the other games that day, there's just the texas and OU game, so I'm pretty sure it'll be a night game.

Thanks for any advice.

This place will tell you to wait and buy after the Clemson game... because people will start selling them if the Tigers drop the opener again.

Im assuming you meant after the Clemson game. He is coming in for the USCe game.

It’s pretty far out to predict what the good teams are week 7… I agree that it should be a night game but plenty of good SEC matchups

OU vs Texas
UGA @ Auburn
SC @ LSU
Florida @ A&M

I would buy them by end of September at least

With all the apps now, you can fly in and on Saturday pick up tickets. How many do you need 3?

When Curly Hallman is coach, you hear the phrase "drop linebacker", when we switch to the veer offense after Mike Miley goes pro in baseball or when Saint Pete Jenkins is stabbing Mike Archer in the back.

PS- this is too far back for 99% of this Board to understand

Including yourself.

The drop linebacker was Lou Tepper's genius. Lou Tepper was hired as DC in 1998 by Gerry Dinardo after Carl Reese left for Texas.

It's all in here:

Within an hour of kickoff standing outside the stadium club gate with a cute kid holding up one finger.

Anytime you want. I do not understand the obsession for buying LSU sports tickets on the cheap. If you love the Tigers, you should support the Tigers.

We have to fly in for games too and once you factor all of the other costs (travel, lodging, meals, drinks) the tickets are the cheapest piece of the trip. Just get them and be done with it.
