would feel sorry for you, but “gold seat” owners complained about “other” fans filling in the unused gold seats in the later innings. So now LSU no longer allows it.

This is kind of fair because having the seats behind home plate full in a regional is fun and good for the program. If you’re gonna leave who cares.

That said there’s no guarantee this guy was one of the complainers. Also doubt LSU’s hand was forced.

I’ll always say it, Priority points are bullshite. If you pay for the seat, you should have rights to It for post season. TAF has a suite and tons of club tickets they don’t sell and just let whoever go for free. They should make it work within their allotment.

Also, I agree with people, you shouldn’t be able to buy 8-10 tickets if you have two seats. It won’t surprise me if there are a ton of empty seats this weekend. The prices on the resale are insane.

Been a season ticket holder since 1988. It’s happened to us several times. It sucks but ain’t shite you can do about it.

Sure there is. First thing I would do is stop buying post season tickets through LSU.

Last Sunday when they had the OSU Regional game with the lightning delay, those same types left and the stadium was as loud if not louder with just the diehards left (who stayed through the delay).

On the flip side is the guy who donated $500,000 to the LSU baseball NIL. He calls and says, hey I wanna sit behind home plate. It happens.


And it should happen and would happen at any program in America.

Why not just give him season tickets with his donation or have a suite for this type of donors. OP has a legit gripe. The opposing team should get an alottment but not in the grandstand. Host team and fans should be rewarded.


A person making enough money to donate $500k isn’t working 9 to 5 job and is probably too busy to use season tickets.

The opposing team gets an allotment of tickets in the grandstand because the NCAA mandates it. LSU has NO choice in the matter.

When you purchased the tickets, were you told this could happen?

You should be pissed, don't let it die. Flood them with e-mails until they choke on them and don't stop.

I agree with that. I thought visitors got 600 tickets. In that map posted it looks like 3 green sections plus 213. I would agree with OP that they are for LSU donors, politicians, etc

Your only recourse is to cease your support. I agree it is BS. I would not give another penny.

You have assigned LSU season tickets seat locations; this is NCAA postseason. Not the same.
