Welcome to the AAOLA home page
Once again this year, a generous benefactor has given the AAOLA FOUR 2009 LSU Football season tickets to raffle. That's four tickets to each 2009 home game -- a retail value of approximately $2,500, but to LSU fans ... just about priceless.
The raffle tickets are only $20 each, and the winner will receive seats 1-4 in the Upper West Deck, Section 617 for every 2009 LSU home football game. The drawing will be held on Friday, September 4, at 3 p.m. You do not have to be present to win.
So how do you get hold of some chances to win? Buy your tickets online using our secure shopping cart service through AuctionPay. You can also call the office at (225) 761-8230 (toll free 1-866-390-8736), e-mail Karen Kennedy, or check with a board member you know (click on Who we are).
