Fwiw worth season ticket holder on home side lower section … things have changed since the covid year… idk what but just not the same level.. I figured it was due to coming off championship high into a few years of chaos… home side fills up but visitors side is never full.. especially the top section.. people scattered throughout regardless of seat leave earlier… students leave earlier and earlier .. all the complaints are valid.. food.. seats.. day games(heat)… traffic.. looks loos wanting to “visit” a game …

I guess bring back a consistent top team and the crowd will go back to as was.. but sorta think it is to big.. to expensive and turned into a social event to get a few photos for posting..

Regardless I will be there early and stay late and have fun… but they should react to what is happening in the seats along with the field..

Agreed

Like is said a page or so ago, it has become socially acceptable to leave the LSU game early.

Note to many who don’t know, the section on the West side (LSU sideline) near the student section, but looks like season ticket holders, is the recruiting section. Recruiting not just for football but for all the LSU sports. That section clears out a good bit in the second half as a lot of them go back to the Lawton Room for catered food and watch the game on tv, or many of the other sport recruits leave and head on to other activities.

That area always looks bad on tv, but I don’t know what to do about that.

I think everyone underestimates the number of people LSU pissed off in 2020 that will never be back. Actual Attendance has been falling for a while but took an obvious dive after 2020. For years LSU has been making it more expensive and more of a hassle to attend games but I think 2020 was the last straw for many.

I try to make one game a season and when I go I stay until the clock hits 0:00. But yeah that traffic is demoralizing. They gotta do something better
