re: How can all these poor countries afford World Cup tickets

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m shocked that all of these South American fans can afford tickets/hotels to absolutely pack these stadiums out.
Same reason BR’s median household income is $49k but LSU fans are known for traveling for their sporting events.

re: US vs Bosnia Nets 24.4 Million Viewers, Peaking At 31 Million

I understand they can track an official watch party, but how can they tell who’s throwing a house party or not?
Nielsen has surveyors that wear a digital device that tracks viewership based on sound.
They also take data from digital providers like YoutubeTV. So if your account watched all 3 group stage games on multiple TVs but didn’t watch the first knockout round, they can say with near certainty that you and your family watched it - just elsewhere.

Which means there were minimal watch parties for that game whereas the soccer game’s actual “eyeballs” is likely well undercounted due to the amount group viewings
Nielsen factors this into ratings. And it’s easier to track now.

Y'all used those numbers as support for claiming that hockey was a bigger deal in the US than soccer.
I wasn’t part of the conversation but I wouldn’t be bragging about 3.7 million more in this scenario.

550 down about 550,000 to go.
I know nothing about the migratory bird act but all I know is those birds don’t migrate.

Your 43 homicides for Baton Rouge is East Baton Rouge Parish.
EBR has 102,000 more people than Orleans (which is entirely New Orleans city limits)
re: Is it true someone is going to develop WEB golf course into more neighborhoods?
Posted by CapitalTiger on 7/2/26 at 9:45 am to loogaroo
I’ve always said BREC should sell the 5 holes across College to a developer and use the money to convert Webb into a high-end 9 hole course and practice facility.

Profit margins are irrelevant if proper cash flow isn’t sustained.

I have a pretty good knowledge of athletic department staff. Can you name an employee that isn’t listed?
If you’re working off a gotcha, coaches that have been fired but still paying on contract are not employees. They were terminated.

But, it's still literally incorrect that EVERY Athletic Department employee is listed on the website.
Maybe someone that started recently but they list everyone by department including the entire custodial staff.

re: When you were at LSU, what was the #1 preferred company choice for people in your major?

Enterprise. Gave us the tools to be our own boss. Excellent corporate structure.

It doesn’t have an upper level on one side? I could’ve sworn that it used to.
All the "upper" areas are suites/club.

So Ole Miss is sticking all of the visiting fans in the upper deck? I thought that the SEC mandates a certain percentage of visitors seats must be in the lower level. If they can do this, why can’t LSU?
Vaught-Hemmingway does not have an upper deck.

I understand this on a vertical plane or when describing turning a screwdriver as it mimics the motion of the hands. But if you're on a horizontal plane, wouldn't moving from 8 to 6 (i.e. counterclockwise) be heading right?

Recent research shows humans have an innate, global bias to drift to the left and walk in a counterclockwise (anticlockwise) direction when wandering aimlessly or when lost.
Wouldn't a counter-clockwise direction mean drifting to the right?

frick this, after this season I'm giving up my tickets. I'm tired of trying to compete with the big money baws out there.
~15 year TAF donor here. $100/yr until 3 years ago when point multipliers changed and I bumped to $1,000. This year my bonus was a little larger than expected so I pledged $2,500 to bump up to 4 away tickets allocated in first round knowing the demand was there. I’ve actually only paid half the pledge and will do the other half before the 10/31 deadline.
Got 4 for Ole Miss and 4 for Kentucky as requested.
Hardly big money

You mentioned travel plans being a concern for this delay.

How difficult is it to get ALL ticket offices to agree to send data by a certain date to avoid ALL confusion...do they not all meet numerous times/yr. ?
I highly doubt they are meeting as 16 offices together more than once a year.

Even if it's Ole MS dragging their feet, what about all the other ticket orders from other opponents....why are they not filled in a timely manner,why broadcast specific dates/confirmations ?
I'm with you on timelines and communicating any delays or issues.
