Grandma and Grandpa, families with young kids etc...i can understand leaving early. But STUDENTS?!? WTF?!?

I remember when i was a student we got there early and stayed late - most games till the end....and it was a blast. That WAS the tiger stadium experience. Whenever the panned the stadium in the past, you could tell where the student section was bc it was always packed. Not any more. And dont give me the BS "traffic" excuse. Most of you dont live that far from campus and are too drunk to care about traffic anyway. All you spoiled, entitled millenials - step up! Put away your phones and daddy's credit card and show some Got damn school spirit!

Shut up, its not just the students


If LSU wants the stands more full they need to put a better product on the field

Why should i piss away a lot of money to watch a shite show? I will always support LSU but I am not wasting my money to be miserable

you do realize that most if the Greeks weren't there because of the administration shitting all over them for the last 2 weeks, right?

as for the non-greeks, this was nothing new.

I'm not a student anymore but I wouldn't stay for this shite show. I don't approve of our AD, coach, and some of his staff (Grimes). What other effective ways can I show it than by not going to games or leaving when my eyes start bleeding from watching the pointless penalties and poor execution.

Get over it, Grandpa.

So the students are responsible for 65k+ butts in the seats........??

(the other 80 degrees of the stands pretty bare by end of the 3rd Q...)......

Uh, the student section was by far the most full section at the beginning of the game yesterday.

As far as leaving early, that's an epidemic in every section. Not sure why you're singling out the students.

I had student tickets for a long time (02-10). At the beginning, we always went 30-45 minutes early, and either stayed until the end, or left in the 4th during blowouts.

Differences between then and now:

-We got season tickets for all home games relatively cheaply
-The games were exciting and fun
-The players were much more excited
-The band fired everyone up all game long
-You weren't seen as leper for getting drunk in the stadium
-We used to be able to give other people our tickets
-Electric on offense
-Blowing people up all game on defense

And I hate sounding cliché, but our cell phones weren't as advanced back then. I got to see the transition over the years. Make the games more fun, and the students will come and stay

I don't blame the students. Even they have better things to do then watch that crap. I would imagine when LSU gets serious about football again, so will the fans.

I normally shite on the students because I love hearing Neck, but I have to back them this time.

They are literally the only section that stands and is loud.
The rest of the stadium was sitting down early in the 1st Quarter on a third down play.
And the rest of the stadium was noticeably empty to begin the game.


Look in the mirror this time. Quit the blame game and everyone show up, stay and be loud.

This. And there would have been even more students of the Greeks weren't pissed. There were tons of open seats all around the middle of the lower bowl. All of those corporate owned seats.

Tiger stadium will never be like it was in the 80's... NEVER....

But having the ability to watch every game on TV makes a difference... plus a bunch of those fans that leave early just go watch it in the parking lot anyway... I know of people that have tickets to every game and choose to sit at their RV and just watch it there....

They don't get it. One of the best times of their lives and they would prefer to leave early to go play video games and Snapchat, etc. Today's generation is soft.

I am not sure when you where a student but this has been going on for a long time. I was at the earthquake game and 30% of the stadium had already left when the remaining crowd made history.

There were a shite load of kids left in the SEZ chanting LSU to shout down the Syracuse fans.

There is no excuse for the students. They are the Univerisy.

Many of us were once in the same shoes they fill. Even more so that have filled those same seats when we were not good at all.

We did not leave then because we had respect for our school.

Stadium needs some good wifi. You know how hard it is to post snaps during a game?

Seriously, these kids lose their connectivity and they start losing their minds.

You idiots are the worst

Blah blah back in my day we packed the stadium an hour before the game and stayed an hour after it was over! Get the frick over yourself and stop patting yourself on the back. Maybe if we don’t hire a shrimp boat captain as a coach and get skull fricked by Miss State the crowd would be more involved. Maybe if we aren’t in a close game with Syracuse in the 4th quarter, fans would be more involved

You ever stop to think that maybe the problem is the program and not the fans?
