We have already seen a reduction in number of tailgaters the past 2-3 yrs.
We have seen a reduction in the number of people attending games and tailgating the past few years. But traffic congestion is at an all time high.
LSU has dropped the ball again.
LSU vs. Florida was a perfect example of LSU killing the fan experience. A great matchup and only 75K or so in attendance. The announcers made numerous comments regarding the empty seats. However, many decade long season ticket holders were stuck in traffic for many hours and turned around and went home. There was absolutely no parking and traffic coordination for that game and what their was it was contradicting so people went around in circles.
It's gotten to the point that season ticket holders cant even give tickets away to the smaller games.
LSU fans want to tailgate and LSU is killing that off slowly.

My experience at this game is what turned me into a major Alleva detractor...that's why I refer to him as "Neville Chamberlin" ...we needed Winston Churchill's "ACTION THIS DAY"...not, "we hired a consultant"...
now, as far as tailgating is concerned...when I was at LSU, tailgating as we know it now didn't exist, but there was more than adequate parking and public transport to/from Tiger Stadium...
My personal thought about the central campus area is that tailgaiters should be able to reserve their area...but pay for it...
Parade Ground, I'd subdivide and rent out and get somebody to keep it policed at all times...
Per game paid parking should be open until an hour before kickoff...
