So a football game tickets like this one coming up: you don’t want to go. What do you do with them? I generally offer to give them to folks with little kids.

Do people actually get face value for such?

I’m always amused by the folks that are hell bent trying to sell them on their social media or around work for face value. No ones buying them you cheap frick.

When I used to have tickets, this is what I did. It's not worth the time to post and deal with crap for $10 to $15 a ticket. Family, friends, or people saw at the stadium with kids got them for free.

I used to be one of those kids.

I get vendors calling me all the time offering tickets now and I still don't go.

I bought them at face value as a freshman because I didn’t know any better.

If I remember right, the face value on those is only $20...I don't waste time trying to sell them. I don't sell tickets at a loss, so in this case I would offer to bring some extra kids with me or just let the tickets go unused.

You could go and throw them down right in front of the stadium and no one would pick them up.

Try and give them away for free, which is even difficult.

Fave value is $25 a ticket.
Depends on how hard you’re up for cash.

When I had season tickets (20-25 years) I would sell ALL my tickets for face value. So, if you bought the Arkansas state tickets for face value, you would be given the option to buy the LSU or Florida ticket for face value too.

If you want a garbage ticket for free, then don’t get mad if I ask you to pay double for the Iron Bowl.

LSU has an option to donate to military. I have done this with tickets in the past.

And people in this thread are exactly why it’s hilarious when everyone says our home field advantage means anything anymore. Troy players and fans talked for weeks about what a joke that was.
