It is a shame. I thought that our fans would gobble up tickets. I never expected a full house, but the thought that we can't get at least 50K Tiger fans to come out on a sunny Saturday for a conference game is pretty sad. I understand that some people have prior commitments, but those that don't go will be among the first to complain when LSU gets ridiculed by the media for such a lackluster fan showing.

People thought the Saints games in 2005 in Tiger Stadium had low attendance. And that was a bad Saints team. Looks like the game tomorrow is going to be way below those attendance numbers.

Where else can you get a SEC Sideline ticket for $75 and see Leonard Fournette?

exactly. youre watching the best footballer since Herschell walker out there right on the sideline for $75. Screw LSU fairweather fans or couchfans. I'm not impressed with our fanbase. I was considering shelling out the dough to buy tickets to the florida game but honestly I think i'll stay home and let the fairweather fans go to the florida game.

I think some fans may have been scared off due to the news media. Channel 2 & 9 had video of ticket buyers at the ticket window and zoomed in on the $100.00 tickets. Some may think all tickets are that price.

I'm convinced you are mentally retarded. Please tell me that you're not a father, with children.

I get the fact that you have other plans. I have some I can't break, but how can you complain about these prices? Heck I hope I can find 75 sideline tickets for the Arky game.

We used to be the best fans in college football, but haven't been for a long time. I never thought I'd see the day when LSU fans wouldn't jump at the opportunity for an extra home game to support the Tigers. In recent years, we've gained a terrible reputation for traveling poorly to bowl games outside the state of Louisiana. I guess our fan base has become entitled, spoiled, and lazy over the years.

ill be surprised if the actual attendance breaks 40,000. i know some people who bought extra tickets just in case people wanted to go and don't mind just eating them. I highly doubt the media will say anything bad about the LSU crowd due to the fact we are hosting the game on last minute planning. Anything is better than nothing in this situation

In my day fans would've bought one million tickets to see LSU play the Mickey Mouse Club in Afghanistan.

Hold on chicken little. Obviously you haven't been going to away games so you can keep kicking your pitiful can down the street.

Of course our fans aren't showing up to the Music City bowl . Nobody was excited about that, but other than that our fans have traveled very well to most away games and bowl games worth a shite.

I can't go because I made previous arrangements (assumed game was away) but I bought tickets for a relative to attend with their kid.
