All the time as if they don't have very similar issues where they are from... I live in the south now and it's hilarious how southerners in the church will knock Utah as if everything is perfect wherever they are from

I got one ticket for myself. My two brothers (both CBers) also got one.

For sell?

LSU has infiltrated CB!

Utahns can't say the word "sale", so it bleeds over into written form.

It's both. Come on dude. Many Utahns say 'sell' and 'sale' exactly the same.

Agreed. It's not just sell vs sale though. It's all words that end in ale or ail

I hear (and hate) "melk" for milk and "pellow" for pillow. Drives me nuts.

or Lay-en for Layton. Another strange one I heard from my mom, "Wiltson"...

Southern accents are way better than hearing "acrosst" all the time

Not too shocking that the university four hours away

I bought tickets, just passed on the $350 seats

6/28/17 9:34pm

Ya I'm not paying $350 to watch BYU play unless it's a playoff game.

6/28/17 9:44pm

Alot of fans by directly thru the venue for a better price.

BYU Grounds

bought the $100 variety. Not through BYU either

The game isn't in AZ, it's not like we're filling the south w/members.

Yeah, the church isn't exactly flourishing in the SE US.

Texas = SW not SE

I don't know for sure, but I bet Houston is closer to Atlanta than El Paso

mobomanjoe

6/29/17 6:38am

Texas is somehow simultaneously the south, the west, SE, SW, and the Midwest

Texas is what it wants to be.

Texas is viewed as a SW state, but Houston isn't viewed as a SW city.

LifelongAP

There are about a half million members in the surrounding states.

Lip Gallagher

Haven't bought. Not interested in sitting by myself at the game.

BYU will be very well supported in this game. It's essentially a road game for us and a home game for LSU, but

Sit with 30,000 of your closest BYU friends.

Bought my tickets but not through BYU.

Bumpus Hound

6/28/17 10:11pm

There will be more byu fans there than the UofH game. We will be fine.

BlackBart

6/28/17 10:23pm

I'm guessing 18,000 or more. That's excellent

cougarmanguy

I bought 15 tix through Cougar Club. Road openers I've been to ...

4 hours from campus vs 25. BYU sold a lot of tickets. No shame

Mayor of Cougartown

6/28/17 11:54pm

And LSU travels pretty dang well. I remember when LSU played I wanna say Wiscy

Ty10s_WinGames

6/29/17 7:43am

Agreed and they are probably the third most popular college team in Houston area

BlackBart

6/29/17 7:44am

I concur with this, though it seems that Houston (U of H) is up-and-coming with

Ty10s_WinGames

Totally agree. Just moved from Houston after 12 years and there are a lot of

BlackBart

I bought 10 ... they came today!

Wasn't there some guy yesterday asking why we have a reputation for being cheap?

zerome4sooners

6/29/17 5:05am

I just picked up 4 for the ECU game and tailgate... anyone else going?

Pretorian

6/29/17 8:08am

I'll be at LSU with 7 others and at ECU with 40.

GastonCoug

6/29/17 3:00pm

40! Dude you win

Pretorian

6/29/17 3:13pm

Bought tix for my fam of 5 two days ago. Curious...how much were yours?

zerome4sooners

6/29/17 4:31pm

I have little boys so we did the game + tailgate deal for $55 a piece... seats

Pretorian

6/29/17 4:45pm

Not too bad. I got my seats off stub hub for $50 each. No tailgate party.

zerome4sooners

Humble brag?

Yeah, I don't get it. I pay on gross and always have funds left over.
