re: Vandal coming to Baton Rouge

Where are you staying and how are you getting to the game? You need to figure that out.

If I were you (and I'm from the west) I'd stay in downtown BR at the Hilton or Hotel Indigo. If you want to get into the tailgating then you should rent a car and get their early. By early, I mean 7-9 AM for a night game. You won't be alone.

Eat and drink around Tiger Stadium on game day. See the other recs for the rest of your visit. Unfortunately it's not crawfish season, but plenty to eat.

Do wear your Vandal gear in full force. People are very hospitable to non threatening OOC opponents and respect that you made the trip. Expect some tiger baiting but it's all in good fun. If you're Alabama or Florida it's a much different story.
