We all remember Katrina, we know what SC fans are going through. More work needs to be done, it's for a very good cause, it's for innocent people who are suffering like we did.

LSU's done a lot, but it can do more, like providing more incentive for fans to go to the game. For instance, ask past LSU players for help by coming and assisting. Then announce that famous LSU players from the past will be at every entrance to Tiger Stadium to thank all fans who attend the game. Make it happen LSU, and we will be blessed for giving our all to others in need.

Let a lucky fan call 1 offensive play during the game.

It's not a question of want to for a lot of folks. Its a question of prior commitments. Some folks make other plans when the Tigers are on the road. Some can't rearrange in a short turn around. i get it, it would be nice to have a sell out for those folks but sometimes life gets in the way. Doesn't make Tiger fans uncaring if they can't "make it happen".

At this point the only thing they could realistically do to fill more seats than they will if they stay the course is to drop the price of admission.


Those who are regulars who will not be attending are doing so because of conflicts not related to price.


The seats that are now freed up by these people are not being filled by younger people who simply aren't willing to shell out $40 for an event they were not planning to attend anyways and which they can watch on tv in the comfort of their own chosen setting.


It's all a moot point, if the reports that SC is in charge of ticket pricing are accurate.

Give away some free Basketball tickets, have some door prizes, allow the sales of beer for the game, allow streaking.

Alcohol allowed inside without having to sneak it in.

The person who purchases the 50000 ticket gets to go in locker room before Florida game and run out of the tunnel.

75000 ticket sold gets the same thing but at the Arkansas and aTm game.

Being a season ticket holder takes a huge block of your fall time. Going to a game takes up a full Saturday if you live out of town. Thus every free weekend is jammed full of everything you cant do on the other weekends.

The other issue here is that USCe controls the price and time. USCe's prime goal here is to keep the crowd as small as they can and avoid a night game at all costs! Thus you have a day game. If this had been a night game LSU easily could have 80 to 90 thousand tickets sold. To me its a rather dumb move on their part as a loss is almost inevitable. Sell all the tickets you can collect all the money you can and take your whoopin like a man.

I'm sorry but how is USCe's athletic Dept in any way going to help the flooding victims?

Have cash bars at every level

Let people smoke stogies in designated areas

Serve good food. Hand passed aps

With each box sold come complete with pole and stripper


Just a few ideas that come to mind

You know people can still donate to the cause without attending the game? This whole attendance thing is getting out of hand.
