Well when LSU claims the value of a ticket is 90 dollars and charge season ticket holders that price. But in reality the ticket is worth 35 then why should they not be pissed?

If you buy say a truck for full MSRP plus you have to pay fee to have the right to buy at MSRP.

Wouldn't you be a little miffed if a month later everyone gets to buy the same truck for 13000 off MSRP and didn't have to pay extra up front?

When all you get in return is the ability to buy the truck first.

After a couple of years of this would you still buy a new truck every year higher than MSRP or would you wait?

Yep, if you aren't satisfied with the resell value of season tickets, DON'T BUY SEASON TICKETS! It's so damn simple

It's weird that these diehard, season ticket holder, real LSU fans are always bitching about the resell value of their tickets.
THIS. And many of them whine that the stadium isn't full while they're trying to sell their tickets!

I think you will start to see that really soon.

You think that's good for LSU?

LSU has not had a true wait list in at least 3 years.

No season ticket holders and there is a huge revenue loss for the school and TAF.

The days of give up your seats and someone else will buy them are long gone.

LSU for bleeding its season ticket holders dry.

Only way to afford games is becoming to buy on secondary market.

Cost of concessions,parking and fees is killing season ticket holders.

Exactly. And these season ticket holder frustrations will indeed lead to less holders, and eventually lower prices if LSU wants the stadiums at least half full. Granted, a better product on the field next year could solve that, but another oopsie daisy against some weakass G5 team will hurt LSU bad.
