I liked things before NIL ... and yes to the heat and concessions and all the things. But it's what we do. I could see us picking the games that we go to and give the other tickets to friends but I hate to give them up completely.

Our kids have little kids and one day may want the tickets. I know not my problem but it's where our kids grew up.

To the OP: I am a retired boomer. I’ve “only” had my tickets 20 years but I’m with you. I live in Metairie. Love night games in Tiger Stadium but leaving at 9am…tailgating…then the 45 minutes to get on the interstate after the game (yes, I stay till the end) puts me home at midnight or later. Not worried about the shitty food, I eat before the game. But the long lines for drinks or bathroom…
Was nice watching games the last 2 Saturdays.

Our family has had season tickets since the 80’s. My uncle was the first, followed by my father in 2000. Then I took over my uncles in ‘12. My dad is getting rid of his that he’s had since ‘00 because of the age thing making it harder to deal but he was tapped out after yesterday. Product in the stadium and traffic make it easier to deal with when the product on the field is exceptional but just isn’t the same. I won’t be selling anytime soon but will be curious how things improve moving forward from bathrooms, concessions, traffic etc.

I don't blame you - not to mention the $1000 tickets.

Had a similar feeling last night on my drive home but for a different reason. Really find it hard to sit by 5’4, 150lb fans or on the other end, total fat asses that can’t walk and chew gum at the same time complaining about the performance on the field. And I get, you paid a bunch of money, you’re a fanatic, etc. Couldn’t carry any player on LSU’s jock but fans are telling them how to play and crapping on them for bad plays or decisions.

All that will be left soon will be those weed smoking kids from southern and unemployed social media influencers streaming themselves not drinking and walking around doing dumb shite.

It’s also not necessary for you to read or reply but I guess you couldn’t help yourself, a-hole.

If you dont wanna go to a game..dont go! Give up your tickets so someone who wants to be there can enjoy it. I sit in section 419 and have had the same people around me for years..we cheer together, we complain together and we just experience yearly reunions at the games.

These games are not for the weak at heart. The experience is for the die hard fans..some have the chest, some dont..but whatever u do dont try and justify your reasoning and lessen the experience of everyone else who does go.

I ain’t weak at heart, brah.

I was a student at LSU in the 80’s. I saw a lot of good football. Since then I have lived through Curley Hallman, DiNardo, and saw three national championships. I have paid my fricking dues. Call me out if you wish, but people like me have carried this program for decades. And we were carrying it before your sorry shite arse was even born.

So all of you can frick off.
