What Happened

[Esqueleto]

Purchase up to 4 season tickets, one free parking pass, purchase 5 or more, 2 free passes
Buy single game ticket. Prior to game day, Paking pass is $10
No pre purchase ticket, game day/tailgate parking, $15 to park in lots at Cajun Field...

See how easy that is. 71 do you need a job? You could do wonders for this athletic department.

But DID participate.

What’s rich is the audacity of people to think that because some people would rather watch a sporting event on TV verses in person, that those people are somehow to be looked down on.

The audacity of people to think that others wouldn't look down on people that claim to be Cajun fanatics but rather choose their comfort over real support is breath taking.

We don't have a parking problem.
We have a perception problem.
And perception is reality.

It is absolutely bad marketing to have an empty parking lot next to the stadium.

But and however, bad marketing isn't a detergent for those that already know the market.

Turbine, you need to "clean" up your post!

I didn’t know you go to games. I have missed 4 home games since the 90s. Don’t think I have ever ran into you at one. Message me next year I’ll tell you where we tailgate. I always got a cold beer.

That beer is gonna get awfully warm

I know. I’m just saying your list is reason why very few are not going to games. People like you who haven’t been in a stadium in 20 years or so. Not everyone is a recluse that sits on his patio every Saturday. If it were the majority of people, stadiums would be empty all over the country. Most people still like to get out and socialize, the university just needs to figure out how to make Cajun field the in place to be here in Lafayette.

While I have absolutely no obligation to do so, I’m going to squelch these BS attendance in person accusations . . .

Commencing in mid 80’s when I moved back to Lafayette and took employment here for a period of about 5 or 6 years I had USL football season tickets. I regularly attended 5 or 6 home games a year. During that period I generally attended 1, maybe 2 tiger games a year if there were tickets available that did not conflict with my USL games . . .

In the late 80’s early 90’s I became a pretty avid duck hunter. In fact, I began guiding at a lodge in Little Cheniere on the weekends . . . Starting around that time, I usually attended a couple of Cajuns football games a year if I could get them in after the early teal season and before the big duck season. During that time until the mid 2000’s I attended no tiger games . . . starting the mid 2000’s (around the time Tim Tibow was at Florida) I attended 1 tiger game a year some years with the parents of one of my boy’s friends who had 6 tiger season tickets where he and his parents and a friend and his parents were invited to go to games together. I was good friends with the parents so I got first choice on the game . . . I did that for five years or so. To show how little interest I had in tiger games, one of the games we attended it was hot so I wore a shirt in my closet that I thought would be light and most comfortable . . . well the color of that shirt was royal blue and the tigers were playing Florida . . . Needless to say, I was harassed in a friendly manner all day long . . . Since then, I have not been to a tiger football game.

Around the time when Andrew Toney was a Cajun, I had basketball season tickets for a period of 5 or 6 years. I went to every home game during that period.

When the Tigue was renovated, I took the opportunity to acquire 4 season tickets in the grand stand which I still have. Absent conflict, I attend all those games and if I have a conflict I have several sets of friends that share my tickets for free. My tickets are used for every game. I used to have access to 6 tiger baseball tickets in the first row behind home plate. So on weekends before I got my Cajuns tickets I went to some tiger baseball games . . .

The point being that I have degrees from both universities but I have always been a Cajuns fan first and tiger fan if no conflict and convenient . . . I have not been to a tiger game in any sport in 5 or so years . . . I attend Cajun games every year . . .

I pretty much watch on TV every football game, men and women basketball game, baseball game and softball game that I am unable to attend live . . .

You had season tickets when Andrew Toney played? I was in 3rd, 4th, & 5th grade. I knew you were a little older than me but not that much to be out of school buying season tickets.
