Folks, this has already been discussed. The season ticket price is based on adding the face value of each individual home game ticket. In 2016 there were 6 scheduled home games.
As a result of the LSU fiasco, in 2017 there are 7 home games. Adding that home game (which the face value will be a higher amount than average) is...wait for it... a 16% increase in the # of home games.
There are plenty of things to b!tch about, but this isn't one of them. There was no increase in ticket prices, there was an increase in home games.
