    Best way to get LSU Tickets?

    Looking to go in November to TA&M game

    fukkin tickets are $250 each on stubhub right now

    might go down after this weekend when they get pounded like smoke in the men's showers but still looking for a better way to get tickets

    anyone....anyone?

    tickets are always cheaper the day of the game and buy them in person. The further out you buy them the more you will pay.

    i used to work for a ticket broker.

    and its been my experience that tickets are the cheapest the closer you get to the game. It just makes sense ya know?

    if its a half hour before kickoff the seller will start worry whether or not he will have to eat the tickets.

    Considering the Alabama vs A&M tickets are around 350 to 400 for the cheapest online, I doubt you will find much better deal than 250. LSU vs A&M has turned into a rivalry, especially since LSU has dominated A&M the past few meetings. A&M fans travel well so Im guessing they will buy the ticket if you don't.

    I like what Big Bear said but that is kind of risky. Idk man probably gonna have to give up a good amount of cash for that game. But it will probably be worth it.

    u gotta remember football is the only sport in this whole area. hornets/pelicans/whatever they wanna call themselves bball doesnt even count. southern louisianians are die hard football fans and if it aint the saints, its LSU. hell i didnt even go to lsu and i have all the gear lol

    grunching here.................. yeah, at the stadium before the game is much better. people who don't know about stubhub.com and/or too lazy etc. (stubhub i think wants the tix in-hand to sell them).... of course, if you live 500 miles away, you might want the tix in hand before the game day. of course, this is one reason the tix are so expensive on stubhub.com (i.e. if i'm taking a client i want the tix in hand before the game day)

    yes. i mean it depends. if you want the full experience of craziness you could go anywhere in the vicinity. be warned that BR is currnetly full of nasty construction and shitloads of traffic. most people in a 200 mile radius commute and work in baton rouge if they work in new orleans (the rest in between is all country/bayou). also 60,000 students go to lsu so add that a good number live on or near campus.

    i recently went out to the fairly new casino out there on the river, the l'auberge. i took i-12 to i-10 to essen lane and that was a mess.

    im just giving you a heads up thats all. yes great experience though, especially when bama, auburn, or any of the big texas schools are in town.

    i should point out that i said buy at the stadium............... it certainly helps to actually know that is good advice (i don't.. just good general advice)... some places have pretty strict ant-scalping laws)

    Stubhub always the most expensive. Buy them before the game in person is the cheapest. Your best online options are to haggle on craigslist or make a behind the scenes offer on ebay. You can sometimes find someone who was given tix or have tickets thru their company who want to unload them quickly for the cash.
