LSU’s allotment of BCS tickets sold out
If you want to go to the national championship game and haven’t put in a request for tickets, you may be out of luck.
LSU’s allotment of 16,000 tickets to the BCS National Championship Game on Jan. 7 against the Ohio State Buckeyes has been promised to season ticketholders, LSU Assistant Athletic Director Brian Broussard said Sunday.
The game will be played in the Louisiana Superdome.
LSU received requests for more than 60,000 tickets from season ticketholders who had until Nov. 19 to place orders. Participating schools receive only 16,000 tickets each.
Beginning Dec. 10, LSU season ticketholders will begin receiving notification if and how many tickets they will receive.
LSU will play Ohio State on Jan. 7 in the Louisiana Superdome in the premier game of the Bowl Championship series.
LSU’s allotment of tickets to the BCS National Championship Game will be allocated first to players, coaches, LSU students, LSU Athletic Department and University official party. Next, tickets are allocated to football season tickets holders who placed their order by November 19 based on the LSU Priority Point System.
The number of ticket requests from season ticket holders will be measured against the number of tickets available to determine what limits must be imposed. A limited lottery will be conducted for a small portion of the tickets. Advocate wire services
