It sucks, but sometimes this is just the way the cookie crumbles.
But technically they ARE basing it on attendence. You have your hosts and then the 2-4 are as local as possible to boost ATTENDANCE. Some regionals don't look that way because they have to break up conference members and sometimes there is just nowhere else to send someone (ex: not make JSU a 3 seed just to keep 'em local - that kind of thing). They are trying to boost attendance with what they set up. SO, if they're gonna do that...fine, but pay attention to make sure the venue can handle it.

I wasn't expecting them to give us half of their tickets and take away their homefield advantage- they earned it. I just thought it was a little ridiculous when there was talk about not setting aside ANY tickets for visiting fans. How would family get into the games? In every other college sporting event I've ever been to, the home team gives visitors a small allotment of tickets for visiting fans and family. We did this last year in our regional as well.
But guess what? The rumors were wrong, and ULL apparently has set aside some tickets for each visiting school- so I have no complaints.

the problem is the system is outdated. Stop selling entire weekend passes that get gobbled up by the host fans that only play in 25-33% of the games. Sell individual games and have them open up immediately as they are known and fans need to buy them asap or something anything would be better that what is going on right now.

Don't have a chainsaw. Sorry. You'll have to bring it.

The NCAA requires that hosting schools provide 200 tickets for each regional participant school. Usually, parents of players gobble those up pretty quickly.
Buying tournament booklets is standard operating proceedure. Single game tickets, if available, go on sale day of game.
It is likely the stadium will be sold out before booklets can go on sale to the general public.
However, the only time you'll have an issue is if you're playing the Cajuns. Otherwise, tickets will be easy to come by.
I've been to Dudy Noble before. The left field lounge (now the whole outfield lounge LOL) is a great tradition.

Ditto. We have a "cooking club" that regularly feeds opposing teams and fans. For the regional, there will be more tailgating and general partying going on.
* We do sell a nice variety of beer at home games. With this being a ncaa run event though, not sure if it will be available

Can't y'all just cut down all the pine trees and let us rednecks build a giant tailgate for the weekend? you'll make enough money to buy 4,000 more pine trees

If we could invade the track we could take advantage of that.

I we paid admission, would they let us stand around the OF wall? That's good money they'd be turning away.
Shit they could set up vendors (especially if beer sales are allowed) and make a KILLING

I went to the San Diego messageboard. They are a nice friendly bunch. Yet I had to laugh when one guy posted that Lafayette "has decent Cajun food." That is about like saying that Parish has decent French food.
The Plantation has never won an SEC regular season Championship in ANY men's sport with an integrated team. That defines irrelevance.
