This may be the worst delayed time out of the whole season to talk about upping the price.

Bad timing all around.

- wants to raise prices yet again

- LSU shits the bed at Ole Miss

- they want what, $40 or $50 for the game on PPV this weekend?

The only way this doesn't go through is if they catch Alleva using the tradition fund to pay for hookers and crack. This is a done deal, it just will happen around the holidays or some other time when no one is looking.

That's terrible.

I can't express in words the joy it gives me to know I don't have to write a check for LSU football season tix in 2014.

More supply with less demand does not equate to higher prices

They didn't cancel the vote, but as the OP stated they delayed it until December. Or until the Tigers miraculously save this season.

Usually these things are vetted before press releases and putting it on the Board agenda are they not?? Not sure of anything that gets that far down the line without almost certainty it will pass. Wonder if this was a surprise to Alleva?? And a bad sign.


What?

They'll just wait until the sunshine pumpers take back over and then run the price hike through.

Since you did not answer i will take it as you have never had season tix. I know you have never had a parking pass as we have been through that already.

I think I got it:

Dear Tiger Fans,

If you dumb rednecks would carpool and leave earlier for games we wouldn't have any traffic problems.

We may have to increase parking prices again because you're too stupid to carpool like I suggested.

We may have crapped the bed in Oxford but as long as we're making money and you dumb hicks keep buying tickets no matter what, I could really care less. The LSU football program is about profit not championships.

Don't worry though, I've paid a consulting group to observe your stupid behavior on gamedays and I'm awaiting a report that could advise how I could squeeze even more money out of you.

As always, we welcome your comments. Unfortunately we cannot answer every e-mail we receive, but please be assured they are all read.

Geaux Tigers!
