When I moved back from L.A. to NOLA I
Bought season tickets and had them through the Super Bowl. But they just became too expensive for me to justify eventually.
But I’ll always have the 2009 season. I’m mildly optimistic that the team will get back to respectability…
Given my physical condition I can’t really get full use of tickets these days. I’ll be a reliable tv fan

How often does that happen? Maybe in years past when it was broken down to two big payments. I’m sure plenty backed out then.
If you were changing your mind about tix, I’m thinking you were doing it after the 1st or 2nd of 4 payments.

I bought season tickets in section 117 last month. What’s the best option for parking for that section?

No shite? I was going to call the lsu ticket office instead. Gawrsh, I sure am lucky you give such swell advice.

You mean other than the 18 years you bought them…

Honestly, I feel like season tickets are soon going to become a relic of the past. Between the season ticket price points, out of control concession prices and the general ease of watching the game with a better angle at home, with your own bathroom and own snacks and couch/recliner, the appeal of going to games has gone way down, both for college and NFL.
The appeal to season tickets used to be knowing the people around you. You became almost like family. My dad had Saints season tickets when I was younger, up through 2013. When my dad finally gave them up for health reasons (he had mobility issues and it was just becoming too hard to go every week, he went to some games up until 2018), he had people around us calling to make sure he was okay, as they were concerned there were different people in our seats. It was hard breaking to them we no longer had season tickets.
Even though our season tickets were in the nosebleed terrace level, the people around you were like family.
But nowadays, my guess is easily 50% of season tickets, if not more, are either brokers or Saints "fans" who sell their tickets for part of the season, if not the entire season.
Look at the outrage over the Steelers game being in Paris. Saints fans on here being mad they can't sell their tickets and make it a de facto Steelers home game.
There's no family atmosphere anymore with season tickets. Most likely, the people around you are going to change each game. My mentality now is watch on TV and go to 1 - 2 Saints home games a year and make a nice weekend out of it. Stay in the French Quarter, do some sports gambling at Caesars and splurge on premium lower level seats. To me that's the way more people are going now.
The only benefit to season tickets anymore is having priority for any playoff games. But I feel for ticket offices for teams in general now. The value of season tickets just isn't there anymore.

Two reasons this happened:
1) Three years with Stat Season Leading QBs of Dalton, Carr, and more Carr.
Saints Fans got a deserving taste of sustained success. And then got a long string of games that stopped mattering at all to the rest of the league most Sundays.
You can’t get mad at Fans for losing engagement when even the NFL decided to give the Saints zero home primetime games last year.
People in New Orleans like special events. Monday Night Football, Sunday Night Football, and Playoff Games in the Dome are special events. Season Tickets guaranteed you access.
2) Gayle is cheap and her business people are uncreative and lazy. What have they done nice for the 25k to 28k non-corporate season ticket holders that sustain the home attendance each year?
Look at the Gifts that the Patriots give their Season Ticket Holders each year. Last year was a bad arse custom letterman looking jacket.
You tell me that the Saints couldn’t go half with a corporate sponsor and create a nice $25 (wholesale cost) windbreaker that was exclusive to Season Tickets holders each year?
They have put zero effort into building loyalty to Season Tickets Holders and by doing that it weakens the emotional attachment of “status” of being one and makes it much easier to give it up.

+1. I would have probably renewed last year if Carr would have retired before the first payment deadline.
I disliked him and his brothers so much that I didn’t want to feel like even a penny of my wages were going directly to him.

I’ve had mine for 20+ years, had a buddy that has both Saints and pelicans tix. He said they always give way better gifts to the Pels fans. I told him it’s probably b/c they only have to give out a few hundred gifts to the Pels tix holders.
