Outside of the sugar bowl/bcs championship, has LSU ever played in a bowl game that sold out? Gator bowl and independence bowl come to mind.

my dad and i went to that gator bowl in 1987 and it was packed ... the 1995 indy bowl was packed too .. but that is like a 42,000 seat stadium ... i just don't get these people buying tickets to four different bowl games in anticipation of LSU going to one of them and then having to spend the holidays online selling the other three ... it is always going to be a losing propostion .. and then they bought the LSU tix at face value ... i have NEVER been to an LSU bowl game (outside of the two title games) where there weren't an ASSLOAD of tickets available on gameday ...

I don't have access to the exact numbers, but I do recall the Peach Bowl being very happy with LSU's ticket sales in 2000 and 1996, and I think the Cotton Bowl was pretty well attended by LSU fans in 2002/3. Of course, we also had 40,000+ tickets sold for the Rose Bowl in 2006/7 until the invitation fell through.
