Prices are way too high with the TAF payment on top.


that's why Bama is on top of the college football world along with Clemson.

Alabama fans forego having teeth or essential necessities to go to football games and buy players.

LSU fans are like people who live in California and think they just have too much to do to care about something as meaningless as football.


This is at a fricking spring game:

Sorry but that is NOT a spring game for Bama. The seats are empty. That is just a meet-and-greet for the rednecks.

Can't be true, was told the list is long and that people were just waiting to scoop them up. Multiple posters ask if they can have them. But I bet they never put their money down.

I personally gave my tickets up. Some years it is a good schedule. But I couldn't shell out $200 per game for 6 fricking home games. When I found tickets for visiting friends to games like Auburn for free.

No it’s not, dumbass. You think fan support wins NCs?

They’re on top because they win. They don’t win because of fan support, they win because their coaches and teams are superior. It’s on the coaches and team to do that, not the fans.

Beat Bama and Clemson and win a damn NC or two and watch how fast LSU gets on top.

Idiot.

alabama has the same problem. they are considering reducing their capacity to build a student terrace in the Upper South EZ.

I sat next to two old bammers back at the 2015 LSU-Ala game and they insisted that the LSU game was the first game that year that there were not tons of empty seats. And bama was a top 5 team as usual. In 2017 there were tons of empty seats at the LSU-Ala game in Tuscaloser.

They emailed me last week saying my tix were still available, I simply replied I’d be happy to take them without a donation. They haven’t responded. Haha I didn’t renew because of alleva or king but because the price has become to high for this point in my life.. lat year made it clear when people were giving tickets away for nothing

It does not matter what the product is....

a price increase often results in less sales PERIOD.

Having said that, LSU may generate more revenues w less sales due to higher per unit revenues.

We enjoy going to the games and the whole experience.

That’s why we buy season tickets

I also understand why lots of people don’t buy season tickets

LSU 3 or 4 game ticket packages are cheaper with no fee. There is still plenty of tickets on stub hub and this way you can get tickets to games you want to see.

I’m strongly considering tickets in the south club for the Florida and Arkansas games.

I canceled. It was an insanely difficult decision that I agonized over but it was time. My dad starting taking me as a wee lad in the 1973 season. I received another call this week asking if I had “maybe overlooked “ paying for them .

It really ain’t rocket science.
1) cut down on commercial breaks. No game needs to last 4 hours
2) sell alcohol (already happening)
3) decent food at a reasonable price, not a moldy hamburger for 8 fkn bucks
4) stop selling “premium parking” and taking up good tailgating spots for those dumb pre-packaged charlatan “tailgates”

Make it about the game again and not turning a profit

You forgot about the blatant biased officiating as well.

Every year I’m reminded why it is much better to sit at home and change the channel once the shenanigans start. The aTm game at the end of the season likely lost a few ticket holders.

I didn’t buy the tickets that are in my friends name because:
1) the home schedule sucks, I’m not interested in ga southern etc. I live in Houston and give away half the tix, especially non sec games.
2) I’m sick of the hypocrisy of Collegiate athletics and the refusal to crack down on the cheating, unless it’s ole piss, never a blue blood, too much money at stake..
3) for the price of those tix I can go duck hunting in Canada
4) the debacle of LSU BOS, fking, Joe Alleva

Tiger Stadium will be a tough ticket after LSU kicks the shite out of Texas.

Good point. That is EXACTLY what ended my purchases of NFL and NBA seats.
