I prefer the north but both are good. Do you like being close to the band? If not go south

I have three in 421 for guest. I have never sat in them but researched before picking them up.. they tell me they get shade before others around them.. food is better down there than most places..

But main reason I got them.. the “new” board just above the sections down there stick up above anything else in the stadium.. so when the sun start setting there is a swath in that section more toward top and middle to right that will get a shadow from the sign first.. be careful though because there is a gap in the top level seats that allows sun through them until the late evening .. look at the map you will see that gap.. avoid that area cause the sun will not cast a shadow until late..

North all day every day. We sat in the South for a while and I much prefer the NEZ with TGBFTL playing those 4 famous notes.

Stick with SEZ. The student section acts like a bunch of Neanderthals.

The South endzone is better. It's closer to the field. Plus you get the full view of the student section and band in front of you.

South Endzone section 414 this season marks 30 years. Best play, JD to Taylor 2 point conversion to beat the hated gumps. I love the South endzone.

You actually hear the opposing band better in the north end zone than you hear Tiger Band.

NEZ. Band, G.G, students, etc. Magic seems to happen in that part of the field. Hodson to Fuller, Nix to Twillie, Flynn to Byrd just to name a few.

My tickets are in the south but I sometimes sit with family members in the north. I like the atmosphere in the north better because it is right next to the band and the student section 215.
I keep my tickets in the south because I am under the overhang. Shaded and we don’t get rained on.

Had North 244 for many years.

Love the section but hate the heat and mid October sunburns.

Didn't like same seats in South (424? is comparable view). It felt backwards and I only stayed there 1 year. If seated in South upper, it doesn't have access to ground level from your seats. You have to use the ramps.

I like the north better.

Why is that? I always notice when there is empty seats everywhere except the South endzone is still always packed.



Most of us are dedicated blue collar workers that have had the same seats for years.

Ima put this out there, most of us on the eastern sideline higher up are the same (row 49).. I've not been able to move down lower in four seasons.. This was the highest I've ever been in the relocation (2000 out of 8000)... I watched tons of people pick seats here and there leaving tons of singles. LSU relocation system blows. Just corporate and reseller's buying everything on the lower sides and we wonder why it's constantly empty

I wouldn’t select north endzone for this reason because the student section empties out quickly. Not as quickly as east and west lower sidelines though.

I always thought SEZ was the area that consistently stayed the longest and was the loudest.

Some sections in south end zone are shaded for day games. Something to consider.

Give me the north. The huge walkways wrapping the NEZ make it an easy choice. I also love being near the student section and at 57, I'm still not above sliding over and standing amongst them in big games. My daughter was a senior at the time time and I did it for FL, AU and A&M in 2019 and it was magical.
