Never sold my tickets but you can blame LSU for getting rid of their ticket exchange and going with stub hub as the official site to sell tickets. One has no control who they sell to. LSU use to threaten to take your tickets if they found you sold them on the net for profit. Now they promote it because they get a fee.


I actually 100% agree with this. How it’s legal for LSU to profit off ticket scalping is beyond me.

, but LSU fans like yourself had just as much an opportunity to buy some tickets as the UGA fans.


Well said.

Do you own season tickets? Were you at the game? If you answered no to either, STFU.

I was at the game in the east upper seatbacks. We had red all around us but jus a few rows up mostly P&G. Lower level was almost all purple from my vantage point. It’s been stated in one of the dozens of other threads like this, a lot of what you are seeing is an optical effect related to the color purple, the sun, other red objects and the photo angle.

I was in East lower bowl and we were giving the UGA fans heck. They left early & disappointed and we stayed till the end. I didn't see that much red in 301 row 48 lower bowl. They were few and far between and we drowned them out & gave em hell.

My take on this is, think of all the money those folks in red spent in the City of Baton Rouge and/or surrounding areas.

I used to have seats in 403 (the section described by the OP). I changed to another section because I sat right next to the other teams fans. They bought these seats from their university.

For the large section of red sitting in the top section, those were purchased from fans that were too miserable during the Auburn game last year. That game was sunny and 95 for the 2:30pm start. Many of the fans in the upper section spent significant time receiving medical attention from the heat. I don’t blame them at all for selling their tickets.

Feel better getting that off your chest? It’s not we haven’t had four or five hundred such threads on this topic. I was there with a buddy in my season tickets, because my wife was sick. We started tailgating at 8 and stayed though the end of the game and watched and took some photos of the celebration on the field and the scoreboard. But as far as your judgmental take on what someone else should or can do with their tickets, and to the others who have posted similar diatribes, when you start paying for my season tickets, then you can tell me what I should do with them. Until the, as far as your opinion on this, you know what they say about opinions.....

On I’m on the west 50 yd line lower, with a perfect view of the east. It was not 50/50 on the east.

. I do what I feel is most needed at the time with my own property, and really dgaf who it bothers.

We have two cheap tix in 414. We only give them to diehard fans when we cant go. We don't sell them for $ and never to give to strangers. But I don't care what people do with their property/rights.

I put ranch on the fanciest steaks because they usually also have great homemade ranch. You don't owe people shite for explanation.

Look at the gegapixel on Facebook. Ultra high def. it is maybe 25 percent on the east.

To my family's defense, we were offered 6000 for 2 Bama tickets. Didn't sell Georgia though. Got offered 3800.

"Fans" were selling their tickets for $500. Pathetic losers!

That’s because it’s horseshite. The ultra high def on FB shows maybe 25 percent red on east. Far less than that on west. Those pics posted here are wildly misleading.

I know. I haven't been arguing otherwise. The picture is legitimate, but once you really look at the sections, you'll see the red just sticks out more in the wide view.

Nope. LSU allotted the standard 6k tickets to UGA. There weee more than double that number in attendance. We travel well but UGA travelled very well for this game.
