The easy solution to this is that all season tickets have to be at game 15 minutes before it starts or they can resell or give those tickets away


Sure, not like people have to go home from work, fight Baton Rouge traffic...

Ridiculous! I'm late for the game and they sell my tickets? You would drive our baseball program into insolvency.

All those numbers are tickets sold. Arkansas isn’t averaging 10000 butts in the seats either.

State did NOT sell 13K season ticket packages to ALL games. Many of their packages are to just weekend series.

I watched a State game earlier this season (midweek game) and there could not have been 500 people in attendance if that.

Early in the year, Ben McDonald said he was told St. sold over 13k season tickets. Maybe it was for SEC weekends. Would not doubt it.

call it semantics i guess.
but i always considered “season tickets” to be tickets for every single home game of the season.

There are always tickets for sale for LSU homes games on some LSU site. There are tickets on Stub Hub but for what they cost you have to wanting to go bad.

Are we counting tickets sold or people in seats?


They’re counting the same way they’ve been counting for the past 25 years

It’s got to be tickets sold, because I’m not seeing no where near a crowded ballpark


It’s definitely tickets sold, but she’ll be rocking this weekend. I know a good bit of people making it. Thinking about driving down.

5K top crowd


I know it’s not a sell out but do people not realize that 5k for a regular season college baseball game is a lot of people.

Nowhere near that many in the seats. Bunch of no-chest wussies saying it's too cold or it's Mardi gras, etc.

So Mississipi State is reporting actual attendance while everyone else is reporting tickets sold. I find that hard to believe.

It really sucks that a lot of those ticket holders only show up for a few big series and regionals , but won’t give upon their tickets, so fans who would go can


What world are you living in? Tickets have been available for every game this year.
And have been for pretty much every regular season home game for years. If you are actually looking

Schools report tickets sold because that is what matters to them. If someone doesn’t show up then that’s on them. The money has already been spent for that seat and income is what matters to Athletic Departments. This isn’t Rocket Science.
