I'd imagine that it is a liability thing regarding the updates. They probably didnt want to entice anyone to stay while simultaneously issuing an order to seek shelter
A totally valid point... but of course they kept a playlist blasting in the stands the entire time as well so who knows why. Kudos to no repeats in songs for over three hours though.

The music alone made me go back to my seat. I still have "It's Tricky" stuck in my head

We were told it was a new NCAA regulation that was adopted from the NFL for player safety as the caps were being thrown at players on the sidelines and the field.
LOL
Yeah you can really throw one of those thnigs a long way.
That has happened a lot at LSU?
If that is true, why was it that the guys selling water in the stands didn't take the caps off?

Multimillion dollar Daktronic Replay Boards and we got about 7:30 minutes of the TAMU/Zona State game for staying in the Stadium
It would have been cool to throw up a weather radar on the screen also...
I thought it was nuts and sad there is no speaker system(at least in the upper south endzone) concourse to even understand any of Borne's announcements.
On an unrelated gripe... just a little ventilation in the bathrooms would go along way to lessen the horrendous odor suffocating you while you take a piss.

How is there not a contingency plan or date set for each game?
This.
In an organization with a multi-million dollar budget, run by people with 6 and 7 figure incomes, the bullshite you got last night in unacceptable.
The fact that there is apparently zero contingency plan for every weekend is unacceptable.

Did you stop to think that they did not present other game action, scores, weather updates etc inside the stadium because they didn't want you to have a reason to stay IN the stadium when you were already asked to please leave?
You're kidding right? Another person who didn't read what I wrote. Borne told fans to take shelter from lightning. They never said to clear the stadium. Beyond that, the part about over 90% of the TV's not working in the SEZ Upper Section...did you read that part? That's something people who are sheltering could've used informationally for radar and weather information.
Yeah that's right. I noticed that when I mentioned game/event status, weather info updates, etc, you didn't touch that. Seriously, throw out the lack of scores and highlights and/or TV replays on the Daktronics. Weather and game info or radar/weather updates are extremely helpful when you talk about the public safety/liability perspective.
If that's your angle in response, then you still agree with me. Which is ironic since it seems you want to disagree.
Try again.

Yet we NEVER saw scores on the LED ribbons.
I don't know where you were sitting but the SEZ Upper LED strip was constantly running scores when the TV feed was on... All evening. I did not see any scores on the East or West LED strip.
Additionally the scores were running on the TV feed at bottom of the screen.

There seemed to be some confusion with the in/out policy stated via the stadium announcer.. I decided I wanted to go out and see a friend about 30-45 before the cancellation... I asked if I needed to scan my ticket for re-entry and was told that there was no re-entry anymore.. I said well they announced there was and the guy says they changed that, mind you, this was one of the event staffers employed through lsu and not some rent a cop type.. I then asked about the people already out there who may want to come in and he said that if they left in the window where it was stated over the loud speaker then they could come back in.. I looked at him with laughter at his absurd answer and he didn't even realize how stupid he sounded.

One question, why couldn't they sell you a $5.50 bottle of water with the cap on? There were signs at the concession stand saying it was an sec & Tiger Stadium rule?
You can buy almost 3 gal of gasoline for what they want for 1 liter of water and they wont give you the cap... I told them to stick it. Next game I will bring my own. I cant believe it has come to having to sneak WATER into the stadium!

The fact that they had a weather delay screen saver instead of the major sec games is horrendous. LSU is if not the worst one of the worst venues for fan experience in game. Other stadium show highlights of other games and the stats. All we have is commercials.

Where in my post did I express unhappiness with the game being cancelled?

So you failed at the simple task of reading what I said properly. Then you double down by failing to do so again.
Should I ask-for the third time now-to re read what I wrote and find where I said I disagree with the game being canceled, the reasoning behind the cancellation, or anything other than being unhappy with the specific instances I referenced? References which were flat out unambiguous and extremely simple to discern, and indicative of a failure to implement the changes, improvements and investments they've repeatedly flooded the airwaves and social media with?
I was incredibly clear, and you respond that the game cancellation has to do with the players best interests. Where did I ever say I'm unhappy with the game's cancellation or the thoughts re: player safety? Where did I question why?
The answer-since you're so stupid you can't speak to what I said and are instead making shite up and running with it even when I call your dumbass out on it-is that I didn't, pumpkin.
Seriously, to paraphrase from another person I once knew: Just what kind of idiot are you?

EUD they had the escalator going up after the 5th lightning strike. Had to take my toddler to the other side through 10k people to hope to take the elevator down.
I swear that TS is now being run and managed by the same degenerate team that runs the river center and hires all their degenerate friends. There isn't an ounce of intelligent thought put into any decision making.

Oh. So not only do you suck Jolly Green Giant-sized Hog at reading comprehension and critical thinking, but you're so prideful you have to get the last word no matter how stupid you make yourself look?
I'll play along. But I'll raise your mirror jpg with a gif which is a microcosm for your skills and your English Teachers' reactions to them. Whom are softly weeping somewhere no doubt.
Think realllllll hard and then answer this question: In this image, which person most accurately portrays you?

Remember in the 90s when LSU was proud of its shitty conditions 9f the visiting teams locker rooms and flooding sidelines? They fixed all that and now are proud of the shite conditions they provide the fans.
