Why does LSU insist on being the worst arena in the nation regarding this issue???

Let's get this fixed...in like 16 hours.

Edit: I thought this was understood but:
1) move media out of prime seating
2) move band to 301 (upper corner)
3) give students courtside again AND baseline.

The media needs to be moved badly. But in LSU's defense, they moved the student section during the Trent days because students completely stopped showing up. Now they're spotty. I understand it's the break, but there were games against Oral Roberts and American that there were probably 30 students there maybe. You don't get great seating until you consistently start bringing it.

There are forty fatties occupying a location that has the potential to be really loud down low.

Well this was our chance. With no up votes it'll never happen.

Go buy a ticket. You expect to get something for free. Bunch of freeloaders. Students came blame the years that they stopped showing up. It doomed the future. Sorry, you will not get your bitch..... I mean wish..

Go watch on TV and study so that one day you can afford to but tickets...

I bought two seats for every game, sir.

I also don't need to study...MY students study. Nice try though

I don't know if I'd necessary call the corner of the arena behind the goal "prime" seating. That's like saying sitting in the end zone of a football game is "prime." That aside, where would put the media? Didn't they used to be on the lower sidelines? Where they are now is much worse

I don't think I've ever seen a band seated in the upper deck

Why? Except for a few occasions here and there, they don't come to the games. Attendance has been better recently, but generally they don't show up in huge numbers.

Many students don't have $55 to spend on a ticket upgrade.

Since the current students have anything to do with that.

Yes, blame the current students for the students that didn't show up 5 years ago when no one at all was going to games

I'd move the band back a section and give the students the whole bleachers.

get the media out those seats forever and sit them in the upper deck; all they do is stare at their lap tops the whole time and updated twitter, facebook, theadvocate, etc. etc. etc. :banghead: :banghead:

Then buy one of the single-game tickets in the lower section. Assuming you are correct that it cost $55 to upgrade, then why would you just not buy a "better" ticket for much less? Tomorrow (along with the earlier UK game) is the most expensive single game ticket of the year at $40. $15 less than the cost of an upgrade

After tomorrow, LSU has 5 home games remaining. The avg. cost for a ticket in the "best" seats is just under $19. Why would you upgrade for $55 when you could simply just buy a "better" seat for less than $20?

They don't. But until the students prove they will consistently show up, why would LSU give them "better" seating? LSU made it to the NCAAT last season. They were nationally ranked heading into this season AND had the consensus future #1 pick. Still, the student attendance was spotty. What is LSU going to do, give you the "good" seats for next year when you won't show up because the team isn't as good or appealing?

Take away the "courtside" seats and put the media there. Boom problem solved

Thought this had been covered, but I'm 99% sure that it must be there if the students stay behind the basket. It's an SEC rule that there must be a 1 section buffer between the students and the opposing team bench. If you look at other arenas with the students near the opposing bench, they have the same configuration.

With that said.... It sucks and needs to be changed
