____ing empty ass parking lot. Who's going to pay that kind of money to cook in a gravel lot. Dumb

Everyone who keeps saying "our prices are in line with blah blah blah" needs to read the comments on these posts..

Person after person saying "who in the world can afford to bring their family to these games?"

The only value for UL sports is thru season tickets, and for anyone between 25-40 with a young family, season tickets are about as feasible as saying "I'm sure my kids won't have ANYTHING going on on 8 straight Saturdays"

What comments/posts? You talking Facebook? I don't have FB.

The demographic that has RV spots aren't your typical family in my opinion. I agree traditional tailgating costs should be reduced greatly.

RV spots at Cajun Palms are $150/night with a 3 day/2 night minimum stay if you're spending a Saturday. That's $362 (went do a booking on their website). That is very comparable to a spot at UL with a hookup that allows you to set up on 3 PM Friday and stay until Sunday at 5 PM.

I don't get how people with RVs are blown away by that.

Trying to compare to our peers doesn't take into account that we are in the middle of festival country. We also have parks, concerts, and outdoor activities that cost way less than a tailgate spot inside of a 50+ year old gravel lot. In other words, we have competition around here that other places in our conferences don't outside of Atlanta and Mobile.

I pay $183.3333333 for my RV spot.

You actually pay more than $ 183.3333333 for your RV spot. You have to contribute a minimum $ 1500 to RCAF and you have to purchase at least 2 season tickets. So if you factor that in your RV spot cost is more than you state.

With that said I also have an RV spot and I think $ 400.00 for a single game spot is a bit high. I appreciate that the Administration is trying to protect the RV Tailgaters. If they charge $ 200.00 for a single game what would keep you & I from just buying single game spots rather than making the $ 1150 commitment prior to the start of the season? I "think" that is their logic. Last Saturday there were 36 RVs on Saturday. So 44 empty spots. I say price'em to fill'em. Whatever it takes to get the lot full.

That’s a fair point.

Have a Friday night Fais Do-Do under the oaks where they do the Saturday bands. And promote RV spots as a two night party.

Thanks, would be worthwhile for anyone in an official UL capacity to respond to some of those messages and mention bypassing Ticketmaster fees by purchasing at Cajundome.

I know someone on the forum said we were possibly moving to a new ticket provider, so hopefully that rolls out same time as stadium Reno.

It is insane to me how many people in this town still don’t know Cajun Field will be going through renovation.

Silent phase.
