Changes Coming to Young Ragin Cajuns Club

[UL_Cajuns]

It’s my understanding the family five packs are going away.

I sure hope not. I have been buying the family 5 pack for 6 years now and wanted to continue to be a season ticket holder.

I foresee more admin blaming the fans and community for not showing up. I wouldn't mind being priced out if the stands were full for all sports, but they aren't.

We have also discussed not renewing but it looks like we will hang in at least one more year.

We are priced out of our seats and my couch is much better seating than the east side.

Our older fans have kept this program afloat for a long time now. It just takes one look around at our sporting events (particularly football and basketball) to realize we have an age problem. The younger generations are heavily underrepresented. Some of this is societal trends. Less interest in sports for some. Travel ball occupying the majority of free time for others who still have an interest in sports. A big piece though is a failure to connect by the university to several decades worth of graduates and shoulda, coulda, woulda been supporters. That failure has been on display the last 10 years or so more than ever. The basic costs of attendance have risen while the atmosphere, concessions, and overall experience have tanked in quality. What’s one more straw on the camel’s back though, right?

I could be totally wrong but did you buy them last year? I didnt see that as an option when I was looking to renew my football tickets. I had been buying the family 5 pack since at least 2010 or so.

I just wish they’d up the price of the YRCC membership and keep the same benefits. Even doubling the price would still be a good value for families who attend a lot of games.

If I have to buy a season ticket so my kids can go to all the games, what is the point of even getting YRCC?

Absolutely amazing. Attendance is struggling across the board -- even in the vaunted diamond sports we're drawing 100s and not 1000s of actual butts in seats -- and these morons decide to axe several more ways for fans to save money.

Kids club - gone
Family 5 pack - gone
$2 nattys - gone

At this point I hope these geniuses end up selling 20% of capacity in season tickets across all sports, and those fans are smart enough to just split them with friends and family

Yes they were available last year. I Bought a family 5 pack. They put all the family 5 pack season tickets on east side closer to the visiting section near the hill. It was and always has been a great family deal.

I am curious where they will put the family 5 packs this year. Only difference in 2024 was they assigned your seats randomly instead in the past we could pick in section A or G

Either way. It’s not like we sell out games so if wanted to we just moved around and Sat where we wanted

[R1Letterman]

What is the student ID policy now for games, and how about for softball?

Why is YRCC changing?

The demand for season tickets across Louisiana Athletics is on the rise:



· Softball - Reserved seating is sold out along with several hundred GA season tickets.

· Baseball - All premium seating, supreme rice, and chairback seating is sold out with limited bleacher back seats remaining on a single game basis.

· Football - The demand for tickets in Our Lady of Lourdes Stadium is anticipated to increase.

With these growing demands, Louisiana Athletics is committed to providing all YRCC members and ticket buyers with a positive game experience. The new benefits will ensure every ticket request can be accommodated.

The above was emailed out to current members. There are zero holes in this logic, and I can’t understand why the community isn’t lining up in the street to support UL athletics. Although if you listen to these geniuses instead of using your eyes, apparently the community already is.

Zero holes in the logic but its not based on reality.

While there are zero holes in the logic, it ignores the historical aspect that has only grown.

There are big holes in the stands where the YRCC members can enhance unused voids.... Which is what I think you are saying.
