I went down 400 spots AND i made my annual 100 dollar donation to get my three points. WTF? I usually move up a few spots. Anyone else have that happen this year.

I thought 1 point = $1,000. ????

BTW, my ranking went up about 900.

It's 3 points for each year you give at least $100.

Plus 1 point per $1,000, etc.

I did my usual $100 and combined my wife's points with mine, and I still moved down a few hundred spots.

in order to keep up you need to be giving 5000 a year so you might as well just donate you 100 and then save money until lsu makes it to the champ game buy then you could by any ticket you want. a bonus is when you buy it online or in person you know where you are sitting and with lsu you dont know til you get the tickets

$600 might move you up if your ranking is really high [10000].

I went from 2650 to 3090 when tradition funds were posted for 2009.

if you buy your tickets from a broker agency, you wont get counterfeit tickets. that is where i go. when i bought tickets for the champ game a couple years back it only cost me half of what it would have cost me wasting my money to try to get tickets from lsu plus i got bottom level seats. that is why i give my 100.00 to lsu not expecting anything in return

Last year was the last time I donated $100 for the same reason. I had been giving $100 for several years only to see my ranking drop.

I may be jumping on this bandwagon next year. I already sent my hard earned money in this year and dropped 300+ spots.

I never really paid much attention to my rankings. Been donating for several years but don't have season tix. We go to the games that we want to see, both away and home, along with the bowls. Buy the tix either on ebay or from friends.

Saving money for the Washington trip.

Your current Priority Point total is: 11.5400
Your current Priority Point Ranking is: 6,964*

FRICK...

Dropped over 200 points!

Face it, unless they expand the stadium several thousand of us will never see season tix!
