Group of us, all LSU grads, are driving over from Gulfport for the game. We're not leaving until Les sings.

Well there is this too:

This is what you paid for! You pay 600 to 2000 dollars per seat depending on where you sit in TS as a season ticket holder. We paid for 2 games this year, OM and Bama, in hindsight Miss St. was a big money game too.
So you're paying 200-600 dollars for this game, like was said here, get your money's worth,
But more than anything

Jamal Adams, Clifton Garrett, Dupre, etc. chose to come here over other big name programs and did so thinking that a badass rocking TS was part of the deal

Let's show them we still got it!

Don't give up on them this weekend, channel your inner UGA from 03 with chants and support after other team scores!

After the game was over, went back to the tailgate and had a bite to eat and watched the end of the FSU DAME game. Stayed 30 minutes and was home in Prarieville in 20 minutes after leaving the tailgate via Stanford and I-10. Try it you will like it.

To everyone that panics when they see people heading to the "exits" in the first half, or at halftime, keep this in mind. Sometimes people just have to go to the bathroom, or they want a corn dog from the concession stand. Not everyone walking down the steps is leaving. Even at halftime, many of them return to their seats.

I do realize that we have way too many people leaving early, but I also think that people exaggerate the claims of the "mass exodus" in the second quarter.

i go back to tailgate

get better views of game, better food, better drinks, more comfortable seats, no dirty stares by parent police for cursing, and cleaner restrooms

have a blast and watch game until the end

eat, drink, and watch more football

then work my way towards a final destination

I just don't get it. All offseason, people wanted football season to get here, but now that it's here, they leave early. Distance prevents me from attending too many games (including this one), but when I'm there, I never leave early. Saturday nights in Death Valley are too special to cut short.

You're right. I don't think the majority here bashing these threads even attend the games anyway. And those who want to leave early have the right.

With that said, we can't bash a man for wanting everyone to rally up though. I think the 100 threads on this subject all have good intentions, but let's maybe get a one thread sticky.

$10 profit on each ticket?

Congrats on being poor, I guess . . . .

As an out of state alum, I get back to BR for a couple of games a year. So I value every second in Tiger Stadium...win or lose...all the way to the players singing the Alma Mater. When watching on TV, I must admit, it's embarrassing when you see the stadium half empty in the middle of the 3 rd quarter.

I'm calling bullshite on this. It only took us 20 to get to the mall after the game. I left on the last drive.

Last week, I stayed the entire game 0:00...hardly any traffic on the way home

I hope this week traffic is backed up for hours and we are all in our cars honking the horns in celebration of a Victory

I've had the same experience, stayed through the alma mater and not much traffic once I left. Staying until the end of the game is the new leaving early.
