What did you guys think? Just curious.

To me there were quite a bit fans that made the trip for a 2-3 team this year. I couldn't tell from the south endzone. I couldn't tell what was below me with the band, etc.

The upper decks had a pretty good amount of blue from what I could see. 6K + some easy, correct?

It was impressive IMO. LSU and BR must be happy with the turnout.

There were probably between 9 and 10k worth of blue wearing fans at the game...6k in direct ticket sales at McNeese, and another 3 to 4 who "beg, borrowed or stole" tickets from LSU ticketholders.

Plus some people who are fans of both wore blue just to be supportive. I saw hundreds of people wearing Blue shirts and LSU hats, or vice-versa...some wore "House Divided" shirts that were half McNeese/half LSU.

We travel well and I thought we were well represented at LSU.

It was a great experience for the players, coaches and fans. I haven't talked to a single solitary McNeese fan who didn't enjoy the trip.

Thanks for the hospitality ;)

It was a very good turnout. And I'm not just referring to the visitor's section of seats. McNeese fans were sprinkled almost everywhere, including a good number of them in the Stadium Club* level where my tickets were for the McNeese game.





















* This is the only way I could work it into a post that my tickets Saturday night were in the Stadium Club..........

saw a group of women walking down Chimes that had one member with an appropriate shirt on. Left to right letters said LSU, from top to bottom letters spelled MSU. They were all from Lake Chuck.

I left early with my young daughter in the 3rd qtr. Saw way to many McNeese fans leaving as well.

Keep in mind that it was 16-10 at the time and that they would probably never get a chance to play LSU in Tiger Stadium again.

Nice people but that was strange to me.
