Did you apply for them? You had to do that back in November. I’m a first year season ticket holder and I received some. But I had to apply.

“New but loyal season ticket holder”, WTF does that mean? I’ve had season tix since the mid ‘90s, didn’t get my requested 2 for the Natty...but The politicians of LA got to buy their four tickets each at face value, such BS

How is that possible. Unless you inherited your tickets or have never donated to TAF? And new as in I’ve had season tickets for 3 years but have donated for 8 years. I imagine a lot of people in my point range are in the same boat. Consistently getting season tickets and plan to do so, just don’t have a decade plus worth of season tickets under their belt. There’s about 10000 TAF members based on the website. 8400 and some change got natty tickets. Like I said I’ve only had tickets for 3 years but those 8 years of donations have gotten me into the 6000s and thus, tickets. Did you apply for tickets?

ETA: the politicians tickets come from a separate pot not available to season ticket holders. They come straight from the Sugar Bowl host committee tickets. 90% of LSUs tickets went to season ticket holders. I assume then 350 to the band, 500 to students, then some 1000+ to family of players and AD staff.

Yes I applied. Looks like it really came down to TAF donations, not season ticket loyalty.

Applied for the tickets, my parents had the season tickets for about 15 years, and I took them over for the last five or so, all still under the same account number. I’ve donated to TAF for the past five years or so, mainly to access the PMAC pregame to see the band (as a GBFTL alumni).

I agree, though I missed the cutoff, only been a season ticket holder for 2 seasons now.

I screwed up by not paying attention to the priority breakdown, I have 2 kids that are students, I should have had them sign up for tickets, still pissed at myself for that.

Oh well,
