SEC Gym Tickets, Travel Plans Announced

Would you like to join the Travelin' Tigers in Nashville this weekend?

LSU Head Coach D-D Breaux has announced tickets are available in the LSU section of the Sommet Center for Saturday's SEC Gymnastics Championships. Tickets are $15 each and are available by calling the LSU Ticket Office at (225) 578-2184 or toll-free for the Tiger Nation at (800) 960-8587. If you want to sit in the LSU section, it's important that you purchase your tickets through the LSU Ticket Office.

Also, the Tigers' team hotel will be the Doubletree Hotel in downtown Nashville. At last check a few rooms were available. And don't forget to check out Southwest Airlines travel deals into Nashville. They offer a direct flight from New Orleans, and other locales, to Nashville for very reasonable prices.

Why Is It Important You Travel With The Tigers?

According to BunnieGene's expert math, the Tigers can finish no lower that 5th when the final RQS standings are released on Monday. As you know, these are the standing which determine the seeding for the NCAA Regionals. Teams finishing in the top 6 will receive #1 seeds to one of six regionals. This means LSU really has nothing to lose at the SEC's - and an SEC title to gain, something the Tigers have done only once in school history.

So, after talking to D-D, her mantra this week in practice has been just that - GEAUX FOR IT! Expect the Tigers to be loose and ready to pull out all the stops in what should be a gymnastics meet for the ages. There is truly nothing to lose.

That's why you need to be there, in the seats, wearing your colors and representing the Purple and Gold Nation with pride. See you Saturday!
