For me, verizon rocks. Most other family members use AT&T ( bought cheap group data plan) and side-by-side comparison is revealing. Don't even compare download speeds, it ain't close.

Yes, ATT sucks. If you're an LSU fan, I would say U-Verse is the worst thing that you could go with. I made the switch to U-Verse about 2 yrs ago and lost CST, my mobile phones were worthless within a 1/4 mile of Tiger Stadium on game days and customer service...don't even get me started. I just bit the bullet and spent what was necessary to go back to Cox for home and jumped to Verizon for mobile. Verizon is vastly better.

I agree that you shouldn't be making calls during the game, but I've had issues tailgating where we were trying to coordinate things with others near Tiger Stadium and the damn phones wouldn't work. It was a pain.I also like to check scores if there's another game that matters for LSU.

Glad to be rid of ATT.

At&t has 2 repeaters in the stadium one on the southmost light standard and one on the northmost light standard on the east side of the stadium. They are just above the top edge of the upper deck. But yea to many at&t people trying to use the phones.
