I have a customer that has never been to a LSU game. He went to a small college and said one day he would like to take his son. He buys a lot from me, is a loyal customer, and I like his boy so I hook him up with some free tickets and used my Hilton Rewards Points and got him a free room. The tickets are between the forties about 30 rows up and they cost $50 plus fees. I saw tickets in the nosebleeds for $9.99. Lower bowl seats in the $30 range. WTF? Granted we aren't playing Auburn but we still are playing an ACC opponent. I've never seen tickets sold this cheap. I honestly think this program has sunk to a new low with our fan base. Do you get a free parking pass and a Tiger Dog for Troy?

Stadium is bigger now. Honestly that is the cheapest I have seen LSU home tickets on stub hub. It's not just one-Two at that price.

Literally nobody gives a shite about any of this


As to the rest of your post, a nonconference game after one of the worst beat downs in memory will leave a lot of people unsatisfied. They're protesting with their wallets.

I spent the last 2 days trying to find a home for my 9 tickets, and I refuse to accept money from friends and family.

I don't give them away to strangers b/c I wouldn't do that to those who sit around me.

Looking like my seats won't be occupied.

Everyone was busy cleaning their toe nails.

You can call it "the O Effect". Expect more of the same in the years to come.

Wish I could go, but it's a long drive from Naples FL and after Irma it's tight now.

No. Not at all. I have season tickets but will buy tickets for customers most every year. I've never in my life seen that many tickets that cheap and I've been going to LSU games since the 70's. Hell I'm an LSU alum not some 20 year old kid. I don't live in Louisiana because of my job and I don't have time to constantly stay on sports boards. If our tickets are going for $9.99 this program has sunk far below what I could have possibly imagined. I'm not happy at all about that MSU loss but damn this is beyond alarming for a school I care very much for.

Well it shouldn't be a surprise considering the situation.
Shitty OOC schedule
Bad loss last week
LSU has made the game day experience a cluster fck
They over built with the last expansion
Economy is not great in La

It all adds up. You had to see this coming with the thousands of season tickets people were trying to dump BEFORE the season started.

Hey Ash there is no reason to be a dick but I do agree it's painfully obvious an epic size protest is going on.

Sir I cannot argue with a single word you just noted. However I can't go to a movie for $9.99. How far this program has sunk with so many fans is beyond comprehension.

I've been getting TXT messages from LSU for 2 weeks offering north EZ "best available" seats in sections 233 or 234 for $35.

Uppers gonna be empty Saturday night.

Well our team better get to winning or the president, AD and coaching staff will all be gone. Money talks and the BS walks. When that wallet starts hurting heads start rolling.

I scooped up a pair in the north end zone for 29 a piece. They have stuff even cheaper in other parts of the stadium. Tickets are everywhere. No one cares anymore I guess

I had someone use my tickets one time that I didn't know personally, and their behavior caused the season ticket holder behind me to leave.

Not a big deal

I just don't need the hassle.

You people aren't real tiger fans, it shouldn't matter what their record is or who the coach is, if you get a chance you go. There are many of us who live too far away to go, but would love to go. Suck it up and go enjoy the game.

Hell last week we didn't have power or potable water but I went to a sports bar to watch the game. I was disappointed with the game but I watch the tigers whenever I can. Most of you don't remember the lean years of the 80's and 90's.

GO TO THE GAME AND ENJOY IT. I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO!!!!!!

My uncle had six tickets he was going to donate to the Boys & Girls club. He was on the way when he stopped to get a cup of coffee at the Circle K. The tickets were sitting on the passenger seat.

When he came out of the store the window was broke out. Sure enough, there were now 12 tickets sitting in the passenger seat.
