Lebby buying UGA tix and giving them away
- Thread starter retire the banner
- Start date
Athletic department should be getting those tickets into the hands of Boy Scouts and other local groups like they used to in the old days
I know the guy is getting stupid rich off of us as are the players, but I truly appreciate them doing this
This is military appreciation weekend and there are up to 3,500 personnel plus family on an air force base 35 miles away. Shouldn't be hard to fill some empty seats if its that bad.
That's pretty sad, but it's also shocking to me that UGA doesn't have them bought up. The in person product is just having trouble competing.
Good on Lebby and players!
By the way, 7 home games is too many for State fans. In the future, the AD needs to consider saving some cash, on games like Alcorn or NIU, and have a neutral site game for alumni in Dallas or Houston or Atlanta.
Or sell a game to a sec school, atm for example in Dallas to bank some cash on salaries and nil.

We shall see how many are there. I bet a good number. But with that said.... late season, 11am kickoff. Expensive tickets, expensive and few hotels .... they are playoff bound. So other trips to take. All adds up.
Holy Templeton.
Who knew Larry Templeton posts here?
UGA with three injured defensive starters from last week, their best DL is out.
Show up to the damn game Saturday!
I don't mind 7 spread over almost 12 weeks but 4 in a row beginning in late August/early September is just idiotic and its not the first time. Thanks SEC!
It’s not having trouble competing in Austin, College Station, Nashville, Knoxville, Oxford, Athens, Gainesville, Columbia, Auburn, Tuscaloosa, Lexington, or Baton Rouge. Just Starkville
Have you tried giving tickets to our games away? It’s a lot harder than you think. Last time we had tickets offered to my son’s Boy Scout troop I think they had 3 or 4 out of probably 30 take them. Most kids that wanted to go already had parents with tickets
Some of us remember playing in Florida for, I think it was 4 straight years.
Ugh idk, maybe winning 2 sec games since the 2022 egg bowl against the same program
Kindred spirits
But hey, the dude kept MSU operating when there wasn't 4K in the Bulldog club.
But I’m off the fire lebby train for this year, I agreed pre season that if he got 5 I wouldn’t call for his head so I’ll stick to my word
How many did you buy to get in the hands of boy scouts and local groups?
Winning and larger towns. Also none of those have Alabama next door.
Could you imagine the crowds in Oxford, if they haven't won a sec game in over a year, UTn was in Memphis and had 18 NCs? They'd have 20k for games.
I don't hate this but i can assure you the gnashing of teeth and chapped bloody vaginas would be unbearable if we only had 6 home games.
Shut. The Hell. Up.
If Lane goes to Florida and ole miss promotes Golding, they will be set back big time and begin a downward spiral. They would have mid 40’s at most of their games after year 1 of Golding.
we can’t draw crowds simply because we aren’t good and haven’t been for awhile, even when we were respectful Mike Leach’s last year we weren’t fun to watch .
If lebby can really get this going I think he can be close to Mullen if he can just learn how to coach better and get better players
It's my fault. If not for a guys trip this weekend there would be a whopping total of four more tickets sold and we'd make the trip, albeit 2 of those would be wearing red.
I'll will us to victory from afar by getting very drunk and conquering the world of R.I.S.K. I'll take a cowbell, step outside, and ring it a handful of times after we do so.
ETA: We'll be in Atlanta.

This is a bit silly:
Austin: 2M+ metro population and 55k enrollment
College Station: 280k metro population AND ranked #3 in the latest poll (AND 61k enrollment)
Nashville: first time Vandy has been in the top 15 in eons, not to mention the over 2M in the metro
Knoxville: been in the top 10-15 all year, 100k+ stadium for a reason
Oxford: top 10
Athens: top 10
Gainesville: 52k enrollment
Columbia: This is one actual fair comparison - and it looks like also they have PLENTY of tickets left to their clash against #3 ranked A&M next Saturday.
Lexington: Here's a recent video about their disappointing crowds
I think I've made the point. You can't fairly compare our recent football history, enrollment, population, etc. to most of the teams on your list.
CAFB, Meridian Naval Air Station, both should have tickets if they want them.
Hahaha. I saw you sitting alone for N ILL and hollering about a penalty on a fair catch. Hopefully you have a friend tag along for this game. Sincerely.
This game would have been perfect for a 6:00 PM kick.
Probably the same number as you, which is beside the point. I’m talking about the athletic dept. trying to put unsold tickets into the hands of younger fans and potential future students.
Yeah, you can reach out to The Enforcer himself if you need to know more details about his wife's work schedule and his son's soccer schedule.
A LOT of people found out how much less hassle it was to stay home and watch on TV.
ahhh, it has been a long week already. my semi-functional brain is less than semi...
