The drinking is part of it, but they can also finish watching the game on TV while tailgating.


The tailgating culture is out of control and I would support severe restrictions on it.

How much the this contribute financially to LSU? I guess there is some from the parking passes. Is it a big part of the intake?

I respect your opinion but I have a severe problem with this line of thinking.

See for a lot of people (myself included) gameday is about more than just the game. Now don't get me wrong, Saturday night in death valley cheering the finest football team in the land on to victory is most definitely the main event, but there is more to the show.

The tailgating, bourbon, food and women just amplify the appeal of a weekend in baton rouge. It's a 3 hour drive I make every single home game. It's a mini vacation for me and while I love my tigers it's the decadence that makes a Towson game worth the expense.

Oh ok..

I pay for a parking pass and don't tailgate, and there are a lot of others like me, perhaps most. Conversely, a lot of tailgaters don't have parking passes, and it doesn't cost anything to set up a tent on a vacant patch of ground. I suspect tailgaters who don't buy game tickets are a net loss to the University, when security, wear and tear on buildings and grounds, etc, are taken into account. If I'm wrong, I'd like someone to show me the figures proving it.


Good for you, man. That parking pass helps pay for the student or faculty parking lot you park in that has been there for 20 years.

It almost sounds like you're pissed about having to pay for a parking pass that is near where people can park and tailgate for free.

What is your issue? Has your parking pass price gone up because prisons are charging more for inmate trash cleanup on Sunday mornings?

What lot are you in?

I'm not happy about stupid fricks that can't seem to put their vehicle between the parking stripes in my lot. If a stupid dipshit can't put their vehicle in one space in a parking pass lot, then they need to buy more than one space or get towed.
