Depends on if Tiger is in the final group on Sunday or not.

How long have you had the season tickets for?

I gave up 9 season tickets for the wife and I to attend the Ryder Cup in Paris, followed by a cruise that includes Normandy.

We're still gonna do the Bama game though.

The Masters practice rounds are better than the tournament, unless you happen to be fortunate enough to be front row at 18, when something real memorable happens, or maybe 16, like Tiger's famous shot.

Like 5 years. After I went to the masters last year I was like I’ll do anything to come back and bring my dad next year. Dropping my LSU season tickets will cover my masters trip.

Augusta is on my bucket list...but I wouldn't trade a whole season for one day in Augusta.

The Masters is an amazing event.

My perspective is different. My family has had the same tickets since the 50’s. And we’ve expanded. No way would I give them up for a few trips to watch the Masters. I’ve been to both events and quietly, my FIL has positioned himself to be the very first Native American member accepted to Augusta National. If he came to me today and asked me to give up my LSU tickets, I’ll tell him no. You don’t have the LSU history, but what long term benefits your family most? I love the Masters

These days Masters no question (how game day used to be, tougher question)

That’s the point I was trying to make. Especially with the way LSU has made the game day experience so unenjoyable. But I understand the die hards out there that would never even consider giving up their tickets for one day at the masters.

He could go to every LSU game for way less than he does now.

Some games you can't even give tickets away.

I went with my dad in 2016, both sat and Sunday. It was an awesome place for sure, but so many people on the weekend...and as you said very expensive. The package we had was 10k for both days and two nights in the Hilton.

If I ever go back it'll be a practice round.

You better pay that chair fee to get close to front row. I was the first one in the gates when they opened Sunday...trying to get our chairs up front...there were already several rows. Found out people pay big dollars for that.

I would not trade my season tickets for a year for the Masters.

I’d bet my house this is wrong. There’s no chair fee. The Masters isn’t about squeezing every last penny from its fans.

I’m not even a golf fan and I know the answer. LSU season tickets aren’t that hard to find

Bullshite....and yes they have great food prices and beer prices...but I'm 100% correct. You can pay a few hundred and have your chair in place in a pretty good position. I dgaf if you believe that or not.
