Cool stories...my dad was at LSU during the late 70's and he used to take my mom to baseball games for a "cheap date"...I think you could get in free with student ID...he said there were zero people in the stands...probably good for a "cheap feel" as well knowing my dad
just to be accurate...my pops was there in the early 70's as well...undergrad, MBA and PHD and he said the baseball stadium was dead the whole time.

I grew up on the same street as the Smith family. Coach Smith sold us our baseball and softball uniforms. He was a kind man.
We went to a game in the late '70's. It was empty, but I met Rudy Macklin.
In 1989 I was bartending, and a few guest said that college baseball will be as popular as college basketball in 20 years. They made a damn strong prediction that was true.
Skip Bertman would come in by himself before or after a game, in the '80's, to enjoy himself, and he was rarely ever bothered by guests. He is one of the most approach sports figures at LSU.
