Masters.

Not close.

Going to the Masters is a borderline religious experience and is sport perfection.

Going to (and getting away from) Tiger Stadium on a game day is a nightmare from Hell.

LSU football is best viewed from the tv at home.

I can’t believe you gave up your season tickets for one Masters tournament.


why not? You can buy them on the cheap for any home game right outside the stadium.

The Masters doesn’t have a halftime that you can leave early at though....

Yes...and then I'd leave the Masters early if Tiger was sucking.

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.

seriously, I'd love to see proof of this. If you have a link, please let me know. I've thought for years that anyone can get a front row seat, as long as you're the first one there and put your chair down - and no one will bother it.

A "chair fee" would be news to me.

As much as I would like to go to the Masters there is no way I would give up my season tickets.

Some guys say they would give anything to go to Augusta. Say you have LSU football season tickets would you give them up to buy expensive masters tix?

for just one round one year or getting actual tickets to the Masters not through their lottery but every year? If you gave me the choice of being able to buy masters tickets every year to give up my season tickets, then I would do that all day. If you said I had to give up my LSU season tickets to go to one round of the Masters, then no. It's not difficult (expensive, not difficult) to go to the Masters if you want to. It's effectively impossible currently to get yearly passes to the Masters because you can't currently apply and haven't been able to for years.

It's a fact. Don't need a link. I was first one there my second day, on Sunday...literally ran when gates opened...and there were already 10-12 rows of chairs around the 18th. I asked how that was possible since I was first there. That's what I was told by multiple people. Correct...no one fcks with your chairs. I spent most of my time on the 7th green.

I am hopelessly obsessed with LSU Football. No brainer for me...Tiger Stadium every frickin time. Golf, like soccer and women's basketball, does nothing for me. I'd rather take a nap. Just my personal preference.

I guess it’s different if you love golf. Understandable

I’d trade all 4 days at the Masters for NEZ tix to a good LSU game.

Thank God I don’t have to make that decision this year. I ended up winning 4 Wednesday tickets this year. Taking my bil and his wife to it. When BIL was graduating high school, his father asked him if he wanted to go to the Masters or Cancun. He chose Cancun like we all would’ve, thinking he would go later in life with Dad. Year and a half later his father died. When I called him yesterday and told him we were going, he literally cried. The Masters is a bucket list item. Two sporting events I wanted to see in my life in person, LSU wins National championship, saw that when they beat Oklahoma and Augusta National. Finally get to see it next April

I love LSU football more than anything but hearing a grown man cry says all I need to know.

What a story man. I went last year with my uncle and it was like a religious experience. It was the best sporting event I have ever been to and I just went to a practice round. I gave up my LSU season tix so I could take my dad this year.

Quite frankly depends on the situation. I have been blessed to attend 10 times now in my life time and will continue to go every other year for the rest of my life .seeing tiger win in 97 my first time ever as a high school kid was special! However when tiger stadium is right on a Saturday night and the tigers are victorious It triumphs all things, that being said it would be one hell of a choice

It’s a fact you’re not allowed to run at Augusta National...
There is no secret chair fee by Augusta National either. Someone lied to you. The big money is at Berckman’s place.
