Gumps will take out a second mortgage on their double wides and sell their first born's soul to Satan for football tickets. You should know this by now. Remember the story in the Times Picayune about the Gump who raided his retirement account for the funds to buy tickets to the 2011 BCSCG? They may not have food on the table, but they'll have tickets to see the Tide play.

If it's a ticket next to me I understand. Otherwise I don't care if ISIS buys my ticket.

As we speak I have sold four seats right next to me for $1,500 and I'm just hoping the people who show up aren't wearing Crimson and White with that stupid "A" somewhere on their clothing


4 years ago for the bama game we sold 4 of our 9 tickets. Got just over $2000 for them and was worried I'd be shipping them to alabama. Nope , was very relieved when they shipped to Breaux bridge area.

The grand slam of the deal was that no one showed up to sit in the seats. We were able to spread out from our other 5 seats and enjoy the game.

I can only quess the company that bought them did so for a client. The client probably didn't understand how bad traffic is and waited too late to head towards Baton Rouge.

Fixed it for you. HRC is so corrupt and just lies about all the pay for play scandals. If she makes it to the Presidency, there may as well be a For Sale sign on the White House lawn.

Yea however being a good capitalist and Republican money is the driving force. Remember Alabama has a lot of "old" monies.

No, the person selling the tickets is solely responsible!

I don't understand why so many people are selling their tickets. We finally got rid of Miles, so this will probably be our best chance to beat the Gumps for a while. Add in the fact that it's a night game and the weather is supposed to be awesome. It doesn't make sense that the market is flooded with tickets, many of which will likely end up in the hands of Gumps. I just don't get it.

LSU fans love to make a quick buck instead of supporting the team. That's why Alabama had more fans than LSU in the Superdome on 1/9.

For this game, I'm actually hoping they come and watch the crimson turds get beat down. They need to witness order being restored.

There are plenty of "it's my ticket and I'll leave when I want fans". Those are the same people who sell their tickets to Bama fans. They are also the same people who claim that Tiger fans are the best in the country and wear LSU gear 7 days straight in Destin while bragging about how crazy TS is on a Saturday night after a few. Pathetic.

You'd have never known by the crowd on 1/9 that the game was being played only an hour from Baton Rouge. It looked like a freaking Gump home game. After the pathetic LSU fan turnout at the 2011 SECCG, I assumed that everyone was saving their money for BCS tickets. Boy, was I wrong.

People who say stuff like this shouldn't be allowed to complain about the teams performance. Just sit there, be a casual fan, and accept what happens. You are helping 0

...And you saw what happened in Cleveland last night.

40% Cubs fans?

Essentially a neutral field.

I know a few people who sell their Alabama tickets if they can find a gump stupid enough to pay the price they want.

Typically, that one game ticket sale is used to pay for the entire season.
