Wow.
So you're blaming LSU for long TV timeouts. Let's not blame the network at all.
Crappy WiFi service. Jesus what the hell do you need WiFi for?

Bathrooms are horrendous
There are often no paper towels past the 1st quarter, for big games sometimes they're all gone by the start of the game.
Ridiculously long tv timeouts, that extend the game to a ridiculous length.
No game highlights from other games that are going on.....funny, but folks like to know what's going on in other games.
Show more stats on the "jumbotron"....once a quarter is no where near enough.
Show more scores on the "jumbotron"....the ribbon board can't even get the scores right, on Saturday it had the wrong score the GA game until late in the 4th quarter.
Crap Wi-Fi service....sorry, but this is 2013 and people like their phones.
Jesus...you might as well just stay home, man.

Just stay home. Going to sporting events clearly isn't your scene.

No, I'm blaming LSU for not keeping folks entertained during the long timeouts. UGA did it right and showed the Oklahoma-Notre Dame during the tv timeouts, which made things a lot more palatable. Believe it or not, only about 40-50% folks in the stadium are hardcore fans.....

So I can check in on other games going on during long arse tv timeouts....again something that could be remedied by using the big screen more effectively.

..Several years ago, we were harassed by a female Gestapo gate worker. She was rude not only to us, but to others also. I got her name paid a visit to the Athletic Department the following Monday. They were very interested in what I had to say. Listened and participated in the conversation. Thanked me for coming by. Said they had received complaints from others about the workers at the same gate as I used. I got a letter a week or so later thanking me for bringing my concerns to their attention and that the matter was taken care of.
So, yes. If you have concerns, contact the Athletic Department and voice them. They cannot fix what they do no know about. In my case, the system worked.

Yea, because I have season tickets to LSU Football...go to most road games, Saints, and Pelicans tickets. Sat through 100% of the Auburn game in the rain. Yea....I hate not watching the games on tv.
But since you went there, clearly I'm not the only person who is frustrated with the gameday production. Every single LSU fan sitting around me in UGA marveled at how much better their game production was over ours.
I'm not sure why some of you have your heels in dug into the sand at keeping Tiger Stadium stuck in the past. Maybe we should get rid of the Jumbotron and go back to the old scoreboards to appease you folks.

What exactly would you change inside the stadium?
If the student section is going to yell profanity while on tv they have to do something (and it reflects poorly on LSU if they don't censor it).
First off it has become way too commercialized. All the ads, the piped in music, the empty seats, it's not like it was in the late 90's and early 2000's and probably will never be again. If you ever were a part of game there during that time, you would know what I am talking about. Besides the Bama game last year, it is just not the same. I can remember a time when the band never stopped playing songs. Now we have to hear jump around, hell's bells, enter sandman, etc. WHY?? Leave that to Wisconsin and VT.
As for the students, I would take everyone of the id's after the game and not allow them back into another game. It's a total lack of morals and disrespect, which is what our world has come to. Pretty soon TGBFTL will not be able to play anything because the students find a way to put STTDB in every song. I guess that's why we have more piped in music.
I'll be the first to admit. It's just not the same. Not that I don't enjoy going still, but the atmosphere is not like it used to be. When was the last time you remember seeing empty seats at the beginning of a Florida game? Never

Complaining about broken things and screwed up policies isn't bitching. It's being a Customer. How about people stop being apologists for FAILURE. When you have to wait 30 minutes to get into your freakin gate-you call and complain, so they are aware of the problem and can make changes. Pretty simple.
Likewise making suggestions for stadium changes. Feedback from their CUSTOMERS good or bad is critical to giving their CUSTOMERS what they want.

You are at a fricken college football game.
Here are a few things you can do/think about to help you from bitching:
- Talk to the many interesting people around you.
- If you think paper towels will make your hands any more clean than using your shirt then you have another thing coming to you.
- Blame CBS
- Wi-Fi? Really? haha

Apparently I'm not the only person with these gripes or the stands would always be full and we wouldn't have had 50 threads on this yesterday.

Quit blaming Tiger Stadium for this. Put it on yourself and show up to your gate earlier instead of waiting for everyone else to flood the gates at the same time. We get the the gate about 40 min before game time and have no problem getting in.

Gate 12 here. I've never waited more than 5 minutes to get in.

Stay home if you wanna see highlights of the Arkansas game. You seem to be the person that needs to be entertained the whole time you're there. Can you not just sit there during a timeout and relax without shite being blasted in your face the whole time?
this....bigtime. we went to an asssstro's/Yankee game recently at MM park and, to be honest, the atmosphere was more like a game show on steroids for pre-adolescents than a major league ball game. in no uncertain terms, TV/CBS is killing the LSU/Tiger Stadium mystique one miserably fricking hot game at a time. as I've said before, the SEC needs to re-negociate with CBS about protecting and enhancing the traditions that made the LSU/SEC game day traditions so different and special. JMO.
get better, get ready...get even.
