BATON ROUGE -- LSU has announced a new plan that will affect the price of football tickets and reserved parking for games at Tiger Stadium for the 2007 season.
The new ticket plan, which will increase the cost of tickets $4 for some games and $9 for others, is subject to approval of the LSU Board of Supervisors. Also, a Tradition Fund contribution will be required to purchase parking passes, with various levels based on the location of the lots.
Under the new pricing plan that will be effective with the 2007 season, tickets for games against non-conference opponents will cost $40 each, and tickets for games against Southeastern Conference opponents, plus non-conference opponents designated as “premier games,” will cost $45 each.
“This ticket plan is critical for LSU to properly manage its athletic budget, to maintain a superior coaching staff, to continue our facility enhancement plan and to provide quality service to our customers and our student-athletes,” said LSU athletic director Skip Bertman. “Ticket price increases are inevitable for athletics programs such as this one that must pay its own way with the use of no state tax dollars.”
