LSU officials reportedly said the actual attendance was ~82,000.

Have you ever been to a game before? Is this a serious question?
Been going to LSU games since the Bert Jones days.
Were any of you people at the game AND not in the Student Section? If you can answer yes to both questions then surely you know what I'm talking about.

Yeah, they decide in August which game will have empty seats and coordinate it as such.
Go troll elsewhere.

Oh, and were you somewhat sober at the game. So that means you need to answer "Yes" three times to qualify for discussion on this topic.

There were a decent amount of empty seats in the gold seats in the East Upper. The first SEC home game is always the Gold Game. Regardless of opponent, time, or television carrier.

I'm pretty sure the stadium was full, or I was way to drunk

I have a friend who is "close to the program" and his job is to count everyone who comes in to TS for every game. He said he only counted 22,471 that actually attended this game.

It started out full. And i was dead sober since I had to work till 5 and had to rush to the game after. There was definitely some empty seats in the East side lower that i could see from the west side in the 4th.

Yes. SEZ 414 R6.
I really didn't notice that many empty seats other then just to the east of the NEZ scoreboard near the top. I didn't pay that much attention to the upper west side, and can't see the upper east from my seat. But I did see people outside while walking to the stadium with tickets for sale. Not the ones who buy and sell, it was fans on their way to the stadium.

You are full of shite. No where near a full house. OP is right.. tons of empty seats and I couldn't believe it either.

Find something else to bitch about please.

Maybe they are to expensive? So lets add more seats and jack the price up more because our economy is awsome!!!
I still beleive there were more than 82000 seats

Not sure if serious.

That's the number of tickets sold.
LSU's never had an actual crowd larger than 90,000 fwiw.

I was in 414 and didn't see that many empty seats. There were none around me for sure. Under the north endzone scoreboard was all I noticed but that's nothing new.
No way there were only 82k there. There may have been some empty seats, but not 10k. No way
And now that I think about it, i don't recall seeing ANYONE selling tickets outside either
