Student Tickets BS
Posted on 8/29/23 at 1:07 pm

This is coming from a current student who just went through all of this BS. LSU sends out an email last week to all freshmen and transfers stating if you want to be in the pre sale for tickets, you need to sign up for Collegiate Club. As most students did this, everyone had to pay $25-$100, depending on membership, to be able to get the presale. The tickets went on sale at 9am this morning and they were two packages. Gold Package is Grambling, Army, Florida and Purple Package is Arkansas, Auburn, and GA State. Just about all students added both packages to cart and the Texas A&M game. About 5 minutes after everyone purchases tickets, the ticket office sends an emailing stating, “IF YOU ATTEMPT TO PURCHASE BOTH PACKAGES, BOTH PACKAGES WILL BE REMOVED FROM YOUR ACCOUNT AND YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE FOOTBALL TICKETS THIS SEASON.” We have not received a refund after buying both packages because we were not aware that we had to pick one. They then send a survey to each student and made them pick which one they wanted because they fricked it up on their end. Students are now left to either buy $150 tickets in the nosebleeds just to walk down to the student section or wait for another student to sell that certain ticket because of the brain dead ticket office.

That’s messed up. I’d go straight to the ticket office and talk to them about it.

LSU has always fricked over the student section in TS.
It’s always been a joke.

Sounds like they are correcting the issue, aren’t they? If they are sending a survey out to choose one of the packages, doesn’t it sound like they are going to get the one they choose?

The point is students cannot go to all home games. Would you rather watch Georgia State or Florida Mickey?

I remember tickets costing $80 for the whole season in 2010s. WTF do you mean?
Posted on 8/29/23 at 1:28 pm to El Es You Tigah
The point is they didn’t inform the students that was the case.

They’ve been doing the package deal for freshmen and transfers for a while now. Had to apply for a group of games my freshman year (fall ‘08) and didn’t get any tickets. I was still able to buy a student ticket from other students who got tickets who either couldn’t or didn’t want to go to the game that weekend. This isn’t anything new…

I remember going to every game for the season for free. That was '74-'80

Only freshman cannot. It’s been this way for years to allow upperclassmen the chance to go to all the games. I was a freshman in 2007 and there was a lottery for freshmen.

I seriously doubt that. If students were informed of the date to apply for tickets, I find it very hard to believe it wasn’t mentioned in that email that there were different packages.

when did they start making you choose packages? didnt use to be that way

When I went to school there you got in with an ID and I recall the student section going further over into the west seats. Like 106 and maybe 105 or part of it. But that was 1980 so my memory could be faulty on the seating.
I also remember a couple of student groups were beginning to complain about the fee every student paid that allowed students to get into football games with just an ID and not buy tickets.

WTF? You can't buy tickets to every game? That is confusing as hell!

Mickey you should apply to be the president of the LSU!! You damn near know everything.
