You're dumb. There's a reason that the players go to the student section to get the crowd hyped.

This is sort of a silly statement.

both are "silly" statements .. YA ..

sure .. if LSU didn't exist .. the AD wouldn't .. But the current AD doesn't depend financially on the current non-athlete student body at all and would fare financially far better if those seats were available for general public sale ..

You're older than me, tool.

If you honestly think non-athlete students "make" the football program, then there's no helping you. The student section contributes nothing to the football team except noise often littered with profane chants.

So you're a fricking 15 year old arguing for no student tickets??

Sounds like you're an LSU reject..

Just go back to your crappy big east football troll. we get it, you don't like the student section. You know who cares? No one. The AD isn't going to wake up tomorrow and say "Oh wow bddwolfpack is right, students suck, let's take away all their tickets"

I'm gonna stop, ignorance is something that can't be argued out of someone.

Right? Since LSU's acceptance requirements are so rigorous

I was accepted to the honors college but decided I wanted to play a sport in college

Try watching the actual football game for a change and not dicking around for three hours

There are plenty of people who would love to be in the stadium to actually see the Tigers play

If those are student tickets and we can't fill it up for UF and Auburn then it's time to take some seats away from the students. All year long that section has been empty.



Why do we have to go through this every fricking game?

You are seriously one whiny bitch. The student section is the loudest in the stadium by far and because they do a few chants then all of a sudden they aren't paying attention for 3 hours? Seriously, shut the frick up.

Maybe not yet.

Take them away, and then your have no future donors.

It's absurd to think someone would even say "take away all student tickets"

They obviously didn't go to LSU

true. but you might see those alumni dollars shrink if the students didn't have access to the games while they are still in school. might not have any interest in the athletic program.

When would you have had them "be loud" when you didn't think they were sufficiently so today?

God, don't tell me you're turning into one of these unbearably boorish superfans.

Were you sitting in it today? It was like the last play of last year's Tennessee game for all 4 quarters. Everyone there was so pumped because we played well from start to finish. Me and my friends all thought it was the loudest we could remember it being over the past 2 years we had tickets.

Of course not.

It's the minority that will be large donors though. Those will be alumni.
