Since 1991 after I got out of the Navy. Went tailgating bought a ticket to the game from the box office. Sat in the north end zone called LSU on the following Monday morning and purchased the rest of the games for the year and the rest was history.

I don't know when my Grandfather started buying them (probably the 1930's or 1940's) but I heard there wasn't a bridge across the Mississippi River and they had to wait in line to take a ferry.

Since 1990.

Started with 2 on the Upper West Side, 50 yard line and eventually added 4 more. The crazy part is I haven't lived in Louisiana since 1986, but I wanted good seats would I could make it back.

Grandmother was the original season ticket holder, and purchased 11 seats in the first year the south end was enclosed 1953. I began going to the games with my dad in 1957 at age 6. In 1983 she transferred the tickets to me. We still have 10 seats, but we've split them up to the family members who use them. I still have 4.

My Aunt and Uncle were sitting in the seats I sit in now when Billy Cannon made his famous run. She transfered 5 tickets to me when she turned 93 years old. I've personally been rocking the south endzone since the 80's!!!

The upcoming season will make 30 years of sitting in section 303. Seen some very bad and some great days that I had almost given up on. Be thankful for the Tigers of the last few years.

My parents first got their seats in SW lower in the early 60's. My brother and I had "youth" tickets in the SWUpper. My brother now has those seats in the lower and I have since bought more in SEUpper . I've had those since the early 90's.
