Thread: FB Season Ticket Sales?

  1. #1

    UL Football FB Season Ticket Sales?

    Does anyone know how many season tickets were sold this year ?

    I really think to increase attendance we need to have a better tailgating experience. I know we have the Baseball Stadium and I think that is an awesome place to tailgate. I wish we had an area designated for tailgating like Tulsa, or Tulane or the Saints

    With vendors, a stage, chairs, and face painting for the kids, where people can gather and hang out. Which we have all that but it needs to be better organized. Like Tulanes Tailgate villiage.
    Need a Championship Square like the Saints.

    We can have a better and more organized tailgating for the average fan.

    Those are great ideas.

    What a great place to start.

    No I don't know how many season tickets were sold this year

    Glad someone finally asked. If you’ve noticed the tenor to my posts have been more snarky lately, it’s mostly because of this. I’ve been in touch with at least three people at the administrator level and at least two people at the RCAF executive level.

    The best answer I could get was “ticket sales are flat.” The administration seems very eager to keep this fact quiet.

    Coming off of historically successful seasons, hiring a local and former fan favorite starting QB and touring major gifts and stadium renovation… can’t sell tickets for a team with the nation’s longest winning streak.

    Total failure and/or lack of care by the promotional arm of this university. We have always been bad at telling our story. This is like 2014 all over again, but this time, we had a top 25 and outright league champion football team. And we did it in Lafayette.

    Embarrassing and unacceptable, if true.

    We need something to fix this problem I really think we have alienated the common fan and we need to try to bring them back. We really need to do something like this. To me it wouldn’t take that much work from the University and over time you can improve it. Here is an example

    The common fan and the common donor.

    Also got word that apparently, several items that were recommended in the fan survey for stadium changes and additions are on the chopping block. If we want what we thought we were investing in, people need to start speaking up and paying close attention to the next step, and that’s the Archeticts that just announced they’ve been hired to do the work.

    Well we need to focus on Promotional and Fan Interaction!! We are the Ragin Cajuns this should be like second nature instead we are mediocre when it comes to this.

    I have said this for years. All of Inside the fences of cajun field TG spots are sold out and there is no where for the common borderline fan to go who is just trying it out. Here is what my thoughts have been. Its time to expand in the other direction. I have always said make that big field across from Bourgeois hall a first come first serve basis tail gate area. Say on Friday after 5 you can come out and stake your claim. You could open up parking in Bourgeois and Blackham. maybe even shut down traffic from Johnston to Reinhardt Dr. / The the Cajun Dome. They have got to create growth in the area of tail gating to get new fans out and that is the only direction I can see where serious expansions is possible.
