Recently visited DC, and have some opinions that contradict the guide books. I was thoroughly disappointed with the Smithsonian family of museums. For our national pride, they felt very outdated and needed a breath of fresh air. There are some great exhibits and renovations are underway at just about every museum, but compared to some of the other museums and historical sites we visited, these museums were very unmemorable.

In DC, the best museums were the Newseum, the Spy Museum, and the Holocaust Museum. The Newseum has incredible artifacts including Uni-bomber cabin, shoe bomber get up, 9/11 artifacts and a ton of awesome things to see.

My favorite experience was the Yorktown battlegrounds in nearby Williamsburg. Allow some time to take the guided tour and learn about the specifics, very neat.

It's not that $40-75/ticket is unaffordable, it's that most people don't see that much value in the ticket. Let's be honest, the majority if Louisiana is poor as shite. The fans who would most benefit from these available tickets are the lower middle class people who would take a wife and let's say 2 kids. Even for the $40 tickets, you are looking at $160 in tickets alone, plus concessions for the family. It suddenly becomes a $200 affair for a family of 4 in the upper deck. While everyone on TigerDroppings pulls in 6 figure incomes, the majority of LSU and Baton Rouge specifically doesn't earn enough to easily justify $200 out of the blue for a weekend event.

Those tickets would be gobbled up in a more affluent area of the country with more disposable income, but they are probably still slightly overpriced for what LA can afford.

Great, thanks for the clarification.

LSU Tix is saying upper deck bench seats will be available for $40. I've heard on here that they aren't even opening the upper decks at this time. Can anyone confirm if these seats are going to actually be available, or should I inform my buddy that it will be the $60 endzone or $75 sideline seats only?

Mizzou fans need validation, because not even Mizzou fans like Mizzou fans.
