They still do the tent setup and all. I know they usually have a band playing as well. I've never personally been to walk ons on a game day. Hope yall can get some tix and find a way into the game. If you stay near campus and go to chimes to watch it will be difficult driving away form campus. Since your son will be turning 18 he can get into the college bars but just can't purchase drinks. Not sure if you wanna relive any glory days lol.

Im 50, not dead. We use to set up on parade grounds all the time but lost most of our gear in Harvey and just never restocked it.

Honestly. I have never seen a case where people haven't been able to find tickets day of. We used to have multiple people come weekly, and within 2-3 hours before the game we were always able to find them at, or less, than face value....100% success rate.

If you are willing to pay, you could buy tickets right now. The longer you are willing to wait, the lower the price will become. But there isnt a universe where you WANT to go to this game, have $300 to spend, and don't get two tickets.

You’d have a nice view, Stadium to the east and football ops building to the south. Worst case, have your 18 year old haul the tailgate stuff to/from the truck if you can’t park directly on the first row.

Hope you find tickets though

Tickets are definitely the goal. I don't know whether to bring cash or rely on venmo. Just dont wanna get scammed.

Don't buy tickets from a guy that's also selling T-shirts

We have a parking pass in 108 so we would like to watch the game somewhere close.

Monitor SeatGeak. Safest option, but pay a big fee

Chimes for sure. Walk Ons is not a terrible choice. Or plenty of tail gates will still have TVs going until at least half time. Then beat the traffic and watch the end at a restaurant away from the traffic.

Watch online. LSU’s season is functionally over so there will be tickets available as it gets close.

For watching outside the stadium but on campus... there will be plenty of tailgates left up with people staying to watch games. Given your circumstances, most if not all of those will welcome you. (And if your timing is right, you can likely be offered tickets for face or even free by those who have had a long tailgate day and decide not to go in.) Either way, if you plan on something like this, go to the Victory Hill march then walk around the stadium, north end toward west side to south end, and you will see tickets being sold (and prices drop significantly as game time nears).

For a close place to watch... as already mentioned Chimes and Walk-On's are valid options. Walk-On's has a set up outside that you should be able to get a spot. Your 18 year old may like the Tiger Land setting and the game is on there. And believe it or not, there are plenty of parents that go with their kid there (to watch the game); more than you would think

Always a fear. Don't want to be a TikTok or a meme with kids saying come get your grandpaw

There should be tickets available around the stadium or on Seat Geek before the game. That is what I plan to do.

My problem is I dont know how many I need yet. Seat Geek has a shite-ton of tickets available on it but for some reason the price is twice the Bama game yet probably 3 times the tix for sale.

I agree. We have some friends with a tailgate so gonna do the typical walk around and see if we stumble on something worth the value.
