Does the Athletic department listen to the fans and boosters?

Do they have a council to help the AD collect information, prioritize, raise funds to make changes?
all this talk about fan experience at the game and traffic,that's not the LSU standard.
why can't LSU address these issues?
If they're committed to being #1 or Elite, then obviously they need to be listening closely...
What's the process to get in the AD's ear and then help him get things done?

I am sure most stadiums that hold 100k have similar problems...especially with traffic

Honestly, no they don't give a rats arse about a guy that sits in Section 409 Row 38 with 2 seats.
They are worried about the company that spends 40k on Club Tickets.

What do you want from a fan experience standpoint?
As far as traffic, LSU can probably only do so much. BRPD handles traffic. Given that LSU home games are probably the single largest "tourism" days for the city one would think the city leadership would prioritize making such events as desirable to attend as possible.
However, the mayor could not care less about the games/events and there is no desire from the top down to place emphasis on the traffic situation.

It's been discussed. They try to make traffic better but it will never get fixed because it's not possible. You have a 100,000 person stadium with a limited amount of exits. Unless you want to build new bridges and redesign roadways, it is what it is.

I think the biggest issue with traffic’s is the stadium has increased in size several times over the years , but the infrastructure hasn’t expanded at all. I know the incompetence of BRPD also plays a role but we have too many 2 lane roads getting off campus

Write him a check with a bunch of zeros in it

It’s all about the people that write big checks. They are taken care of in every sense of the word during LSU events. Everyone else is just an after thought.

Went to at least 7 games at Neyland when living in ATL and never experienced the BS post game traffic of Tiger Stadium. Super easy to get out of and to hit the interstate. People can talk about streets not being adequate but much of it is incompetence.

I have been going since the 80's and it was 80k capacity. The traffic has always sucked. only infrastructure improvement that i know of since then is burbank was 4 laned past W. Lee. Now there are a lot more people at the games and living south of campus.

What would you propose then? Move the interstate closer to the stadium?

how big is knoxville? how many people stay in boats? all i am saying is the traffic hasn't gotten much worse than it was 40 yrs ago and capacity has increased by 20k. BR has terrible roads and infrastructure...not really LSU fault.

Why can't they even do easy things?
Show more replays on the video boards.
Show scores of other games on those narrow message boards rather than only ads.
If I watch on TV, I get lots of replays and scores. Why not when I go to the game? This shite was better 20 years ago.

The more money you contribute the more they listen to you.

They don’t GAF what we think.

People on this site constantly complain about how we are behind on NIL and then they complain that our AD is a whore for money.
Can y'all make up your mind?

You have to know where the best place to park is based on where you have to go after the game. It’s not that difficult. I have no issues leaving these games unless there’s actual accidents on the interstate or highways.

So I guess the Nuss Bus has 4 flat tires?
