those aren't people without tickets on campus. that would explain why the stadium is 1/3 empty for many games. still not thousands of people on campus anymore without tickets. student areas of tailgating i'll concede, but not the full campus as was the case a couple of years ago. walk around ceba, a couple years ago you had to stake out a tailgating spot even if you have been there for years. Not this past season. you can go there at 3pm for a night game and set up a tailgate if you want. people use to line ceba drive with tailgates. only 2 consistantly there this year. ours was one of them. where i park up on the hill between ceba and highland, 2 years ago full early every game. had to park there before 9am for a night game. when i bring my gear back there before the game usually 5:30 dozens of empty parking places and no tailgating as it was before. anyone who thinks there are thousands of people on campus without tickets anymore is fooling themselves.

what games had 1/3 not show up? leaving early isn't the same thing

This past year may have been the least amount of fans over the past decade tailgaiting without going to the game (probably due to all the early/day games), but there are always thousands of fans that don't go to any SEC game. Previous years, there were probably at least 10,000 on average games and close to 30,000 on the games of the year. I remember the UF game a few years back that I couldn't believe how many people were on campus and I've been attending LSU games for 30 years.
As far as it being harder to park, adding a few thousand Club level seats is not goint to make the situation much worse, but the guy who said he waits 10 minutes after the game is over for parking to clear out, has obviously never been to a home game. I usually wait at least an hour and still have to fight traffic to leave campus.
