http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/2004-08-24-tickets-cover_x.htm The chart shows how LSU's ticket prices and donor requirements stack up as compared to other top college programs. Notice that, even with the new LSU Vision program, we are still middle-of-the-pack in terms of surcharge and ticket prices. Some schools are asking for donations of $5,000+ for some seats. Look at USC's mandatory Gold section donation. No wonder there are so many empty seats in the Coliseum every Saturday. Like it or not, this is simply the way things are done in college football. I don't see it ending anytime soon.
