Save your money.. I graduated in 2014, I have three on the Eastern Sidelines.. Just take what you can get and relocate whenever you find an opening during your time slot. I haven't truly been able to move to a better spot in the last few years. No matter how much you spend, people with a lot more money will jump you.

I have tickets in section 243 and have had them since the 2023 season. I donate way less than many but more than most and have yet to be able to relocate to a better spot for my four tickets. It pisses me off every year when my relocation slot arrives and I see all the good spots taken a day before. People must be donating $10,000 or more a year tog et the good sections and I’ll never do that. I’d rather that money go to a massive family vacation instead of season tickets but everyone has their own priorities. I just renewed yesterday for I think $3,600. That and the little I donate throughout the year is about as much as I want to allocate to football tickets, too much more than that and I let them go. Having young kids and bringing them on vacation is more important in my opinion.

Once you get season tickets BUY THE SEATBACKS. So much more comfortable and your space is defined.

Those things are ridiculously uncomfortable. Don’t do that.

I gave $100 a year to TAF for about 10 years and stayed on the waiting list every year until LSU gave me a call and offered me season tickets. I got two seats in the NEZ right by a group of friends that have sat there over 20 years. Meanwhile I bought two seats (Season tix) second hand on the East side on the 35. These are primo seats so I did not give them up and the lady I purchase from is happy to sale them to me.

If you just graduated, why are you hanging around the area?

You'll have a higher "Quality of Life" and better job opportunities in Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Charlotte or Tampa.

Believe me, I had to go through this "LSU Sports Withdrawal" after moving out of the Hole, but it's over quickly if you relocate to an area with lots of things to do!

I guess I just have a bony arse, the metal bleachers kill me. Not that I sit much.
I also have rods and screws in my lower back. I enjoy leaning back against a backrest rather than just sitting straight up

I have a bony arse too but what I don’t like about the chair backs is with my wallet in my back pocket, I don’t have room in those things to sit comfortably because the hard plastic edge is right on the sides of my arse and it’s painful. Plus the seats slide back and forth the entire time. I’m buying good quality 16” ones and will just bring them in each game.
