What are the “high demand” sections that will see an increase in ticket prices?

Three straight years of declining attendance and we have one year with a slight uptick and ole Joe can't help himself.

This university will be a better place the day he's fired.

LSU expanded in 2014. The two years following the expansion we averaged 101,723 and 102,004. Last season we averaged 100,819.

So, we average about 1,000 less fans than we did in 2014 and 2015, but there's increased demand? Joe Alleva is a joke of an AD.

Anything near the 50 yard line..
I'm a season ticket holder in the north endzone....if you just have to sit on the side lines especially near the 50 quit complaining and pay for it...

That’s the question everyone has.

What sections are being considered “premium”?

LSU has not spoken on this as far as I know.

LOL!!! You think the north end zone isn’t going up? I’m in South end zone, section 412 and, best I can tell, my tradition fund is going from 260 to 320 per seat.
I believe all lower bowl seats will see the increase, as well as all seats that have a tradition fund required. Others may decease but, that will not last any significant number of years.
I don’t doubt the next announcement will be an increase in tradition fund for parking passes also. I don’t believe they’ll miss that opportunity this year!
Oh, and just let us, by some chance, win another natty, then see what happens.....to ticket cost I mean.

I'm in 244 and my TF is $310. So I'm sure mine is going up as well.

The pricing tiers are actually a good idea. It’s already done in other sports around the country.

If it’s done correctly, you’ll see more asses in seats in upper levels. You’ll have some people not priced out of going to the games. The expensive seats will get a little bit pricier, but those seats will sell themselves if people bail on season ticket renewals.

EVERY ticket in the lower bowl will be more expensive in 2019. You can bet on that.

They have to increase ticket and TAF prices in that they're not filling the stadium anymore. It's been overbuilt and now all the season ticket holders have to pay for all those empty seats in the upper decks. One full stadium per year doesn't pay for it all. Those lost sales are now being pushed down across the faithful

I’ll stick with my corner south endzone seats. Great view, the SEZ always seems to be the loudest section, and seems like the SEZ fans stay the longest compared to the assholes on the sidelines.

I watch from home and have a better experience.

These prices have gotten ridiculous.

Found this. Season tickets cost by themselves (without tradition fund, etc.) appear to be increasing over the next TWO years...

Oh well.........I am still going. And pay that!

If you ever give them up.......they are gone. I have been in the same 6 seats in section 209 since the 70's. And my dad before that since the early 60's.

Cant dream of sitting anywhere else. I will be there until I die.
