No, it doesn't. It actually makes people like you donate to TAF instead of riding the wave of higher ticket fees to increased donations.


Let me rephrase that It sucks for people like me who have been giving "donations" for football tickets and to TAF long before the Tradition Fund was started. All of my "donations" have been for tickets with the exception of my alumni dues, a few small donations to the LSU Foundation, a brick by Mikes cage.

So my $10000 that I have given over the last 10 years is only worth 10 points as opposed to someone who get 20 points for $10000 given to a philanthropic fund in the last 2 years.

Correct. Because with your "giving" you are receiving a benefit of a seat in Alex Box, Tiger Stadium, PMAC, etc.

Giving $10000 to the Philanthropic Fund allows for no direct benefit.

The cycle that was occurring had to be stopped or there would have been a small number of people holding onto the majority of the tickets. All while no one else was supporting TAF because access to new season tickets was impossible.
