i am honestly sorry I rolled my tickets over last year. Wish I'd have let them go. Been going on those tickets since I was 6 years old, and I'm in my 60's now. It's just that the LSUBLM has turned me totally against giving another dime to that school. Not even following the baseball team, and I've had those tickets for 30 years now.
Pretty strong words there, but I understand where you are coming from. I rolled mine over from 2020 so I’m committed to 2021. But after this season, I’m probably done. I’ve had my tickets since 1980.

I’m a new season ticket holder and beyond excited. Won’t be able to make them all but it’ll be fun to give my 2 away to people who otherwise wouldn’t be able to go.

I let mine go after 25 years. Seeing how the university is now run, I have had enough. I will still watch the Tigers on Saturdays, but none of my money will go to the university. Last year was my first time not to tailgate since the mid-80's. I will probably miss it this year, but I am standing my ground. I will still buy the drinks and food to support local businesses. Sports is my way to let the issues of the day go. If I can't do that, then I will find other things to do. Got into hiking lately and really enjoy. Don't know why, but hiking in the mountains with some steep climbs is calming. BR area had a couple of ok trails.
A good day is hiking a good distance in the morning, cooking on the grill, and watching the Tigers on TV.

We bowed out after 2018. Tired of parking hassles, tailgating changes, what LSU has become has solidified that choice. Still get many many emails seeking us to "rejoin" - not a chance. 1993 through 2018. But as of now I am done with LSU athletics in any form.

I dropped my tickets after having them since the 90's and I've been going since the 80's. It's cheaper to buy a la carte. Fees getting too high for crappy games and a couple of other reasons.
I unfortunately don't think enough season ticket holders will drop their tickets for LSU to make a change.

I love LSU and I’ve been a lifelong supporter, but I refuse to give money to an organization that is as poorly run as LSU is right now. I’m not going to be an enabler. I dropped my season ticks and am not looking back.

We held on until the end of the 2019 season. We felt that it was the appropriate time, after being a part of such a magical season. We got out before LSU went full bat shite crazy woke. They weren’t getting our money when they lit up Tiger Stadium in honor of a POS criminal or when they put Mike the Tiger’s face on BLM ads.

Ironic that you make this declaration on an LSU sports forum.

You gave up your tix, because LSU students protested police brutality? That seems bizarre to me.

Now that the NCAA has passed the one time transfer rule college football will be changed forever. You'll see kids jumping from school to school. No loyalty..me, me, me. I hardly watched any games last season and I will probably watch even less this coming season. I gave up my season tickets four years ago and have never regretted it. More time for family and golf and less time for woke, BLM and other political BS.

Let my 2 go in the North End Zone... I love LSU, and have for many, many years, but can't support the school/program right now with all the BS and incompetence.

Let's see. Reasons for giving up season tix listed on TD:
1. TAF and fees increasing making in-person games very expensive.
2. Tailgating being more controlled/limited.
3. LSU administration botching (covering up?) a sex scandal.
4. LSU supporting BLM and being "more woke".
I agree with #1, #2, and #3. My guess is every one of you people whining about #4 is an old white male. You're a dying breed, and Tiger stadium will be a more enjoyable experience without you.

Students protesting has nothing to do with it. LSU outwardly throwing their support behind a domestic terrorist oganization, lighting up the video boards inside the stadium with BLM does. Lighting the football stadium in the colors of a criminal's high school does. Floyd wasn't any hero, and he wasn't a martyr. He was a common criminal who died as a result of drug use at the time of his arrest, while an officer performing a maneuver the way he was trained to restrain him because of his refusal to follow instructions. That is the reason I don't care to spend any more money supporting LSU any longer.

Same here. I bought 3 tickets. I’ve been a LSU fan for all of my life and proud to say that I’m a season ticket holder. Sure there is a lot going on in this world with politics, Covid and social unrest. The world is certainly not perfect, but when I’m watching LSU nothing else matters.

I let mine go in the Club after 25 years. Woody can get his money from BLM and the SJWs. I won’t go back.

He was murdered by a rogue cop, the drug overdose was debunked, why didn't they let the ff render aid, because they were trying to kill him,
'wokes'='anti-wokes' in my book, whiny bitches all of them.
