Constan Announcements


Been awhile since I been to a game but I loved the guys advertisement voice back in the day.
And since some of you talking about sitting in the shade here’s an ad you may remember if you went to the games in the 90’s:

“When the heat is on - drink 10K and Kentwood spring water - A PROUD SPONSOR OF LSU ATHLETICS”

Oh and don’t forget the weather forecast:

“Chance of rain - NEVER”

No matter what, I always miss being in Tiger Stadium on game day.

I’d agree with you if it didn’t impact others and the program. The large numbers who are no showing and not giving or selling their tickets, are being selfish and hurting the team and Tiger Stadium’s ability to intimidate opponents. A penalty/incentive to prevent this is a justified and necessary step the LSU Athletic department should implement.

When season tickets are initially purchased have a sliding scale for a end of the year charge for tickets not used at the games.??? From $0 (all games attended) and x amount for games missed. Maybe have the initial tickets purchase price a little lower initially.

Death Valley is living on past seasons as the greatest atmosphere in college football, it's not the same as it used to be unfortunately.

Typically the Bama game is the one game on the home schedule that brings back the Tiger Stadium of old.

It's my money and my tickets.

Worry about your own seats, Kevin.

Just sayn’
Keeneland race track in Lexington KY has an attendance requirement for all box seats. When the actual ticket owner can’t go the box still has to have bodies in the seats. If not your excluded from purchasing the next year. Consequently all the boxes are full at every race. My wife and I were fortunate to fill seats for the Rockefeller family box.
Something like this could be done. This plan would also allow new blood in the stadium. Just need the will to get it done

LSU Athletics can also set some sort of penalty for non use that increases the cost of renewal for the following season.


All they care about is the money they generate off of tickets. Do you have season tickets and a TAF fee?

Pretty fricking sad you can find tickets for $125 for a top ten night game matchup. Who gives a shite if it’s going to rain. We need to trim the fat on some of this worthless fan base
