I'm debating whether to let my tickets go after this season. It's getting so damn expensive along with the hassles of parking/tailgating.

I, for one, am done after this coming fall. They have drained me dry between tickets and now 4 years of out of state tuition. I'm just tired of the hassle and then being forced to pay for it. My daughter graduates next May and i will enjoy 2016 on my big screen at home. It is just to much.



My newly employed son decided he wanted my tickets.

They have been bestowed upon him. A new generation arises.

I feel your pain. Unfortunately my youngest starts Auburn in fall so I can't bow out yet. But between tickets, parking, that Tailgate Guys tent, and general hassle using the money instead for a really nice week or two at a coast somewhere is starting to call my name!

This is probably going to be my last season too. Can't stand to see Auburn piss money away and then jack up my TUF and ticket prices.

Just hard to justify spending a couple hundred per ticket when you can watch for free at a tailgate/home. I love our tailgate, watching with friends+family, easy access to good food and comfort.

I love/prefer going to games but I don't value the difference between tailgate/home viewing and watching in person at more than 75$/game. WHen people offer quality tickets I will always go though even with the drive

I've got a gameday condo. I'll probably still go to Auburn for the weekends, tailgate, etc., but when game time rolls around I'll watch the game at a tent or head back to the condo... unless someone gives me free tickets - which you run across all the time.

It is fun to go to a game. Some viewing angles at the stadium are not really shown on TV. If TV ever goes to an all 22 broadcast, I would probably just watch every game on TV.

TV tends to focus on the ball and the QB. I like to watch different aspects like route combinations, the box, and sometimes a WR like Duke.

Unfortunately, we fall into this category as well. Between one daughter at Ga Southern, the cost of Auburn tix, and two small grandsons who live with us, just works out better to watch it on our 60" flat screen.

We have friends with an awesome game day condo and we are free to party with them whenever we are in Auburn, and occasionally run across free tix. So we go a couple times a year, but its been a very long time since we purchased season tix.

Those are all very good reasons.

But I'm single, my son is single (no kids/grandkids AS FAR AS I KNOW ), he's a recent graduate, he's newly employed, he's just starting out so he's living at home with me again, so he and I are going to have a lot of fun getting down to Auburn and just having fun tailgating and at the games this year.

I haven't had the chance to sit with him at games for 5 years now. Looking forward to it again.

Love him to death but his eyes only see what he wants them to see once we take the field. It's incredible

2 of the people I tailgate with are like that...Auburn does no wrong, the refs are against us and there is some anti-Auburn conspiracy involving the press, the government and the Illuminati. I swear, it wasn't until after the UGA game that they grudgingly agreed that Chizik had to go

That's the most realistic rendition of JHS I've ever seen
