This is such BS for the avg fan..

So I have a lot more money in my pocket to spend due to tax break but oh no I cant spend that on LSU season tickets because I won't get that 140 to 150 dollars back on 850 in TAF fees...

The real fact is that fans are not renewing because

1. Alleva
2. Orgeron
3. Another season with no coaching search
4. Broken promises
5. Concessions were god awful last year
6. Traffic
7. If you cant make a game you can no longer even give away tickets
8. HDTV
9. Tailgating isn't what it used to be.
10. All of the above put together

All of the above would come before not getting couple hundred back months later.

True but this season is actually a really good home schedule for once. It was the only temptation I had at keeping my seats. But the really bad OOC schedule at home year in and year out attributes to #7 as well.

Normally yeah and I'm very very sick of the neutral site money grabs, but this year's home schedule with Bama and Georgia isn't bad at all.

I haven’t either but it’s there if you log in to your account.

ETA: Maybe not. I thought I noticed it a couple days ago but can’t find it now.

My invoice shows up in my account.

I don't want to interrupt the regularly scheduled O bashing or anything, but companies and donors are no longer allowed to deduct their donations to TAF. I'd bet it has impacted more than just the LSU program.

Back to the regularly scheduled O bashing


That's a big deal.

Miami at home or any decent team AT HOME OOC.

When was the last top 25 matchup in Tiger Stadium OOC?

West Virginia? 8 seasons ago?

Instead we get Furman and Troy State and we are supposed to be excited about fricking Syracuse.

If you like the neutral site games and think they are profitable then they need to start factoring in what its doing to season ticket sales.

Texas is eventually coming but I would bet money it never happens or ends up at a neutral site. Just like we were to play Oklahoma by now
