Does the Athletic department listen to the fans and boosters?

Do they have a council to help the AD collect information, prioritize, raise funds to make changes?
all this talk about fan experience at the game and traffic,that's not the LSU standard.
why can't LSU address these issues?
If they're committed to being #1 or Elite, then obviously they need to be listening closely...
What's the process to get in the AD's ear and then help him get things done?

I am sure most stadiums that hold 100k have similar problems...especially with traffic
Posted on 9/11/23 at 3:44 pm to ApexTiger
Honestly, no they don't give a rats arse about a guy that sits in Section 409 Row 38 with 2 seats.
They are worried about the company that spends 40k on Club Tickets.

What do you want from a fan experience standpoint?
As far as traffic, LSU can probably only do so much. BRPD handles traffic. Given that LSU home games are probably the single largest "tourism" days for the city one would think the city leadership would prioritize making such events as desirable to attend as possible.
However, the mayor could not care less about the games/events and there is no desire from the top down to place emphasis on the traffic situation.

It's been discussed. They try to make traffic better but it will never get fixed because it's not possible. You have a 100,000 person stadium with a limited amount of exits. Unless you want to build new bridges and redesign roadways, it is what it is.

Write him a check with a bunch of zeros in it
Scotty is a whore for money

It’s all about the people that write big checks. They are taken care of in every sense of the word during LSU events. Everyone else is just an after thought.

Why can't they even do easy things?
Show more replays on the video boards.
Show scores of other games on those narrow message boards rather than only ads.
If I watch on TV, I get lots of replays and scores. Why not when I go to the game? This shite was better 20 years ago.

The more money you contribute the more they listen to you.

They don’t GAF what we think.

People on this site constantly complain about how we are behind on NIL and then they complain that our AD is a whore for money.
Can y'all make up your mind?

You have to know where the best place to park is based on where you have to go after the game. It’s not that difficult. I have no issues leaving these games unless there’s actual accidents on the interstate or highways.

Fans..........NO
Boosters......YES

This is about bussing in a large majority of fans from outside of the general area that are not interested in tailgating.
If you want to have big tailgates, then leave your vehicle there and lock your shite. Park a separate vehicle at a designated location.
The lanes can ONLY be designated for busses during a certain time before the game and after the game. That’s the only way it works. You could use contra flow much more effectively. Make no mistake, traffic sucks at most SEC venues that I’ve been to where there are big games.
My issue is where the buses pick up and drop off. I’m not familiar with open areas off of campus that could be used for parking.
There are trains and busses that takes us to the Texans games for people who don’t tailgate. Traffic is crap for those that do and we are by a major interstate (610).

Granted, he may ignore our emails; he may truly care and read em. elephino

I sent an email about my traffic experience after the game and someone followed up with me to ask for more information and clarification.
I also did the postgame survey and told them to pay out DJ Mike's contract and move on cause that shite was embarrassing.

If you’re willing to walk a little bit and you know where to park, the traffic isn’t that big of a deal. I’d tell you where to park but if enough people learn where to park then the convenience of it is gone.
I don’t know why you’d be stuck in a traffic after a 72-10 game, but that’s an avoidable scenario.

Traffic a handful of times per year. It's the biggest pussy excuse around.
