Ragin Cajun Fan-to-Fan Ticket Exchange

[CajunVic]

Thinking back on all sporting experiences where “free” was attempted as a process to increase participation and was unable to pinpoint one instance of success.

“Free” is not a capitalistic concept. It is more of a government opportunity. Louisiana should never participate in “free.”

Not everyone wants to try hard to get tickets used. I'd much rather list mine than call/text all my friends, families, and coworkers. Life is busy enough.

That's how I see it.

This isn't a university project.

This is organic.

Sharing makes the season ticket buyer more likely to buy next year, because they feel like their money wasn't wasted.

ps Loss leaders do rise under the capalistic umbrella.

pps Letting everyone in for free is dumb.

This in essence creates an everybody gets in free on game day gimmick.

No matter what analysis is used to support this gimmick, it is a revenue killer for Louisiana.

This is the last offer of advice which will be provided on the subject.

“Free” is never good.

It's a revenue grower.

Walkon's let's kids eat free on Tuesday because they know they will get adults through the door for the first time.

Sell someone your ticket or give it away they will buy another for their buddy or spouse.

Then why does Volleyball and WBB offer free?

Holy hyperbole.

Until the administration addresses insanely priced Ticketmaster fees (barrier to entry) and tries to solve attendance problems outside of promoting one game per program per season, it's hard for me to take your revenue killer point seriously.

If Dr. Maggard is saying athletics needs 8-9 million dollars in additional revenue per year, I don't think this "gimmick" is going to be the major hurdle to that problem.

They shouldn't.

While it will grow the fan base, the new fan base will not produce a return. (except for Sodexo)

With that show coaching volleyball we ought to be the highest admission in the country.

She is such a doll.

She is a player, just not a Volleyball player.
