*****Scam***** Is it ever worth it to sign up for away football tickets?

Signed up for some away football tickets for Mizzou. Ended up paying face value for some upper deck tickets ($80 each for section 301) when the actual going value will be much less for that game. Couldn’t have been that hard for LSU to find lower bowl seats?

That's a lot of words to say "I'm poor"

Teams are only required to provide a finite amount of lower bowl tickets for visiting fans. If you knew when you requested tickets for that game that the secondary market would be cheaper than face value, why wouldn't you just do that from the beginning instead of going through the LSU ticket office?

The host school determines the seating locations for the visitors. Generally the lower seats are used for the band, students, players and coaches families, etc. The remainder are generally located in the upper deck.

It's borderline common knowledge that aftermarket day of tickets are the way to go for sporting events. There are exceptions but 99% of the time, even for the biggest events, this will give you the most flexibility and bang for your buck. People who lack an ability to 1) wait and/or 2)operate technology close to show time, pay the convenience tax.
To OPs side, LSU should offer the option to defer tickets in a certain section. Wouldn't be difficult but they also wouldn't sell through their alloted upper deck tickets.
Ruling is for OP. Trusted broker should not put ownership of shite on clients. No longer patron them for your business.

You’ll have to decide if face value upper deck tickets are a better deal than slightly cheaper lower bowl tickets with a 20% service fee up-charge.

I don't think you know what a scam is.
I don't think you know what face value is.
I don't think you understand how away game tickets are allotted to visiting teams.
Perhaps you are just a dumbass maybe?

Never worth it unless you're in the top 5% of priority points or love sitting in the worst seats in the house

This is 100% true.

Looks like you got stung Lee.

9/10 if I am going to an away game I just go through Stub Hub. Yes, you may pay a little more but you can sit where YOU Choose!

For games like that it’s always better to get tickets the week of the game. For bigger games (Bama) it’s better to buy face value. Learn economics and you’ll see which games the face value is too big.

How exactly is that a scam? Sounds like you want the security of knowing you have tickets but want to pay the price that taking a risk and waiting will produce. What an entitled mentality

Are you really this clueless? LSU sell away tickets based on what the other University gives them, they have zero control over where they are.
Is your name Karen by any chance?
