I am trying to figure out the disposition of these tickets. I talked to the LSU ticket office and they were illusive. Here is my question: LSU has THOUSANDS of unpurchased tickets that is posted on LSUTIX.net. Some ENTIRE sections are unsold. See below.



At the same time, seat geek (who sells for AT&T) stadium is not selling any of them.



At what point does LSU offload the 1000's of overpriced tickets that they are holding. I mean, who is going to pay $200 for upper deck tickets. That's just crazy.

The Coach O hire and the handling of the OC situation has many fans upset. Some started voting with their pocket book. Although many on here still purchased season tickets

I'm hoping they do just what they did for BYU last year and drop the price as kickoff approaches.

I'm not paying $300 for a lower bowl ticket to this game. we paid $125 against TCU a few years ago.

Unfortunately my friends and I jumped the gun and will be paying $200 for what ended up being endzone tickets. But oh well

Images are now fixed.

When did the prices go down last year? What site did LSU release their tickets to?

You can thank this new Labor Day weekend, bowl-type hype for those ticket prices. Dallas isn't a destination anymore. I'll be watching from home.

I plan to go but when the prices drop, or I'll find tickets on the streets.

If you go to Stubhub there are some lower bowl tickets for about $200 and then some in the 200 sections for around $200 .

People keep saying to get them on the streets. While I understand where those tickets come from for traditional games, I don't for these neutral site games.

Stub Hub is overpriced and will probably drop over the next 2 weeks. LSU TIX is holding thousands of them hostage and obviously no one is interested.

So at what point does LSU send the rights for those back?

Does LSU lower the price?

That's EXACTLY what I am trying to figure out. You can see from my picture that there are entire sections empty. That's a tremendous amount of my they are squandering.

This is why doing neutral site games every year hurts, its too much money for a game. I will say its nice being indoors on labor day weekend and not in the sweltering heat. I will be there but I understand others not wanting to spend the money on it. Plus we have a decent home schedule this year.

Tickets in sections 431-442 were selling on StubHub for under $100 until a month ago. I purchased 2 for $75 each in 440. I guess those sections were given to corporate sponsors & they were unloading them in the secondary market. I have noticed there are fewer remaining and the prices have increased.

I purchased 3 tickets in section 204 row 15. Realized there was an overhang above us. Contacted American Express and they refunded me the $700 total I paid because I claimed it was an obstructed view. So I’m going for free.

The market will decide. This stadium will fill up but no one is going to give up cheap tickets until a couple days out.
