The ticket price increase would generate about a quarter-million dollars for the athletic department. (A season ticket price increase baseball is on Friday's agenda, too. It would raise grandstand ticket prices 9 percent to 39 percent and generate nearly $1 million in added funds. LSU won the NCAA title last year.)

For gymnastics at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center, lower-level seating ticket prices would jump 25 percent, prime mid-level seating would jump 23 percent and upper-level seating is jumping 39 percent. The mandatory foundation fees will make more ticket prices higher.

Percentages are stupid when you are talking increases. They are reporting percentages so that it’s a headline grabber.

Gym seats are going from $65 for season tickets to $100. That’s not some crazy high number. Last year there were 6 home events. That means tickets are now ~$17 each when they were -$11 each last year.

So if they increase ticket prices when LSU wins a natty will they lower them if they fail to make the postseason??

Raising baseball tickets up to 39% might be tough to sell in a year we might not even make the post season

Gymnastics tickets are dirt cheap so an increase there is pretty reasonable

Gymnastics is already a steal even with a price jump. Kind of poor timing to do that ri baseball fans
