Ordering tix for away fball

[Dinkle]

when do i find out where the seats are i just reserved 6 for LSU

 

[SnakePlissken]

State doesn't even have the physical tickets yet and won't for another month or so.

 

[vhdawg]

...when you open that little envelope in late August, and the tickets fall out of it.

i just want to have the satisfaction of knowing that i'm not sitting in the upper deck at Tiger Stadium

You'll probably be in the SE corner with the rest of us.

VH any horror stories from sitting there

 

[Todd4State]

is to not act like a douche and don't get into a fight if at all possible. Just walk away.

I've been to LSU at night and during the day. They were a lot less rowdy during the day, but that was also a week after we lost to Maine.

Expect to get flipped off a lot. I usually cut off a few people in traffic the week before to prepare myself.

There will be a lot of fans there that will offer you food and beer to, though.

....ignore the idiots and keep walking, and you'll be fine. And wear your colors. Don't be the guy that's scared to wear maroon to LSU.

As far as horror stories, I don't really have any. I did, however, take this photo during the game in 2008:

And for the record I wasn't scared. I was superstitious. You know us baseball people can't help that. I'm planning on wearing what I wore to Auburn in 2007.

I have some horror stories from when I was in the band. Of course, Mrs. Lance had the brilliant idea to march through their tailgating area. That decision is second to the dog pound rock- John Tesh version- that the band does during pre-game as her worst decisions as a band director.

This was 1998, and Jackie had prepared the team very well- we made a run (sarcasm) after we got down 41-0 and scored a TD late. I don't know WTF the team did that week. Anyway, we got flipped off about 10,000 times. A good majority of the time that I have been flipped off in my life was that game. The worst thing was this elderly lady- about 70- mooning us. One of their fans tried to get on our bus- while it was moving no less. I was kind of hoping that he would get on so that we could beat his ***. You had to be careful because they had kids that would try to steal your horn and run up into the stands with it right before halftime. Probably the most appaling thing that I saw was a five year old kid flipping off a State fan and the parents patting the kid on the back telling them "Good boy". Way to raise your kid.

But again, the difference was I was in the band one time- and people on the road treat the band like crap. And we were good in 1998, and it was a night game. In 2004, I was with VH and we had just lost to Maine while they were coming off of a NC, and it was a JP special.

This year I kind of expect something in between my two experiences if it's a day game, and something more like my first experience if it's a night game. Also depends on if we beat Auburn or not. I would rather play them during the day myself because I think we have a better chance of winning that way.

well since i ordered the tix now was that too late and im gonna be in a ****** section or...

 

[vhdawg]

....I used to think that was the case, but I've been led to believe recently that date of order doesn't have anything to do with it.
