I could be mistaken, but I think LSU sold all the expansion season tickets before it was begun.

Pathetic Auburn.

Does LSU sell additional tickets for all the seats that are empty in the 2nd half?

And while Alabama has a waiting list for a stadium that holds 15,000 more.


Is that for watching football or listening to the piped in crowd noise?

Has bama sold out their own tickets, last I heard they have not. I wouldn't think they would sell out, given how Saban gets angry when he sees you gumps leave early. Wouldn't want to piss off god and all.



You AU posters should find a way to get rid of this guy before he embarrasses all of you.

Oh and our waiting list for season tickets is over 29,000.
WSJ Article

We have a lot of trashy fans because we have a lot of fans in general. But we also have a lot of loyal, classy fans who spend thousands supporting the university. Hell, I am kind of jealous of AU's ticket problems. I would love to walk up to Bryant Denny today, get a personal tour of all the seats, pick my favorite, pay 500 bucks and walk out with season tickets. The AU family is not as close and loyal as you all seem to think.

I have friends and relatives that have been on the list for years and still don't have access to buy tickets. All of the people on that list still donate through tide pride just to stay on the list...


That is dedication.


Also, I think the reason AU has a hard time selling out their tickets is because it is much harder to watch the games they really care about most (That is the Alabama games in case you aren't from the state) if they are actually at the Auburn games.

Whoooooole lot if insecure gumps in here trying SO hard to prove to everyone that they aren't the trashiest of the trashy. Just accept it gumps and let peace come to you.

We can't help it if your fanbase takes out a HELOC on their double wide to buy season tickets. Don't hold gumps gumping against us.

Again, Bama fans did not start this thread. An AU fan started it to try to bash Bama fans (as usual) and the shite got thrown right back at him when the OP's link referenced your "meet your seat" program to try to sell out your season tickets.

Yeah it's not such a good look. But a lopsided away schedule and the same things that make it harder and harder for everyone to fill their stadiums and it isn't shocking. Congrats Bama on selling all your season tickets so easily. You set the standard for us all

Swoopin,

You're one of the more level headed Auburn fans, so ill direct this question to you:

Do you think it is harder to sell out season tickets due to the fact the average Auburn fan drives from further distances ( Montgomery, ATL, etc.) than do average fans of Alabama ( Tuscaloosa, BHM,etc?)

I have no intention of signing up for tide pride for season tix.

But I know the season ticket holders are the lifeblood of your program. They are the true representatives of your average fan/college community. The fact that we sell out so easily and have a wait list of people paying into tide pride just on the hope that they may get season tix in the future deserves some credit; at least let it off set our dickhead side walkers.

But y'all don't do that. Y'all deflect and say that's not important. The only thing that's important is some jackass from Texas poisoning something that is important to other people. Or some guy getting arrested saying roll tide. Or some arrogant drunk performing an old school fraternity prank on another drunk. Etc.

Let's keep it in perspective.

And auburn leads this charge more than any other. Hell I know auburn fans here in Houston that are otherwise good people until the subject of auburn v Bama comes up. It turns into them beating down everything Bama and building up(very exaggeratedly) everything auburn.

Bama is very much up in your head and it's obvious. Look at tiger N Miami's post history.
