In regards to Lafayette regional tickets...

[HailHud]

Ohhhh dibs on the lawn behind the pine trees behind LF. We could set up about 100 maroon tents there!! Junction 2.0 y'all

Lol. I'm pretty sure that is a private residence behind LF. In years past, people would sit on the rooftops of those houses, but haven't seen that happen in a while

Don't put ANYTHING out of the realm of possibility with us.

WOAH!!! That changes EVERYTHING!!! How much for us to rent out this guy's house for the weekend and turn his backyard into the "Bulldawg Army of Tailgating Tents And Other Awesome Stuff"? For $10,000 this guy will let us tear up his shit right? I get master bedroom fukers for having the idea. What's the local hot tub supplier's name and #?

What is the economic situation of your fanbase? Since MSU is fair game for this topic from the national media I will give it right back to you. Will your fans be able to pass up the money that could be made from their tickets?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ates_by_income Um, your state is dead LAST in income per capita... there was an article in People magazine years ago that listed Lafayette as 'Boomtown USA'..lol It stated that almost everyone had a private maid and butler and we had landing pads for helicopters at McDonalds ..lol...Anyway.. yeah, lots and lots of oil money here... so, we don't need yours... good luck in the tourney!.....

I can tell with your extra oil money you bought yourself a bunch of extra periods…………right? Care to link that article from People magazine so we can get educated correctly? ...

[cajun2bag]

Y'all are bitching like you DESERVE tickets. Seriously, we're playing on the road - what did you really expect??? For them to open up 3/4 of the seats to a visiting team's fanbase so that fanbase could ruin their home advantage?

At least we have 1 person on here that has a brain.............quit bitching

If that's the case, I do wish you and your fellow Ragin Cajun fans would have taken some of your wealth and bought a larger stadium.

If you guys keep it up don't come you won't get tickets. The fact is we don't have a SEC park but we are number 10 in attendance ahead of Florida and Alabama. We earned the right to host you did not. I have six tickets that won't be going to customers for the first game that will be up for sale. So stop acting like elitist and come down be respectful and you will have a chance at tickets.

^^ I find this extremely ironic with his screen name and all^^

[curmudgeon]

Did I just witness an argument where someone from Louisiana taunted Mississippi as a whole for low income?

[Ole Colony]

My screen name has nothing to do with sports. Ole Colony Rd. is the name of the street my mother lives on. My Toyota Land Cruiser was parked there and that is what my club called me when trying to buy my truck.

He is correct. 3% unemployment and the oil, gas business is booming, obviously. Lots of $60,000 pick-ups and the girls drive Range Rovers, Mercedes, BMW. I moved here two years ago and there is plenty of $$$ here. The season tickets are mostly controlled by a small bunch with very, very deep pockets.

[CajunJuice]

I will have 4 tickets to sell for Miss State vs. SDSU on Friday afternoon game. I'll most likely head out to the park and just sell them out there to someone walking up. But if someone is interested in purchasing them from me ahead of time let me know. I'll sell you all non-cajun game tickets.

Guess they figure house boats out rank trailers next.

We got a new sign at the Waffle House.

Yes, your team earned the right to host, and the right to have a home-field advantage, including a decided edge in fans at attendance. However, that does not mean the 3 teams that earned a right to be in a regional should have almost no opportunity to bring a decent amount of their fans as well.

I don't know how we do it in Starkville, but it seems to me just 200 tickets per team is too few. Keep in mind, it's not just the host that earned something by getting to this regional. While I understand the logistical challenge that comes with not knowing in advance when and who each team will play beyond the first 2 games, why not come up with a workable plan that makes it possible to sell weekend tickets to your fans that are tied just to games ULL is in. Give ULL a clear-cut advantage in those games, but perhaps more along the lines of 75% to ULL fans with 25% being offered to whichever team they are playing. You make the tickets valid only to games your team is playing in, regardless of when the games are played. Same goes for all teams. Visiting teams get allotted 25% of the seating for any games their team appears in. For those games that don't involve ULL, take the remaining 50% of tickets and offer them first to the fans of the scheduled teams who have their "25% guaranteed seating", perhaps on a 50-50 basis for the first hour available, then open them up for everybody if any remain unsold. You clear the stadium between games, but with such a small stadium, that isn't that big of a hastle.

That way, visiting team fans can come to your place secure in the knowledge they will have at least a decent chance to get into a game. It also allows for at least a modest amount of visiting team fans to watch any games versus ULL, while still giving ULL a decided advantage in #'s. And, of course, visitors would then also know they'd likely be able to catch a game that does not include ULL without having to hope ULL fans will sell their tickets when it's time.

[blacklistedbully]

Also, is there not some practical, safe place & way to put in some temporary seating?

Obviously you haven't looked at the pictures of their stadium.

No there is not.
Guys we are spoiled with our home stadium and being sent to larger regionals in the past. ULL earned their ability to host and the NCAA decided to send us there instead of Miami or FSU.
It is what it is. Best case scenario ULL loses and the tickets come open for any fans who make the trip.

[Ole Colony]

The 200 is NCAA rule not ours. You can blame coach Hud for the lack of seats. The park was supposed to be remodel last summer. The football stadium is getting the work now and baseball became phrase two. The only standing room is between the patio boxes which run along the brick walls and the bullpens.
