i've seen LSU twice at Vanderbilt and both times I just drove up to the game about 30 minutes prior to kick-off, parked on the street, walked up to the ticket office to buy tickets..then made my way down the 50 yard line by halftime.

oh and leaving was just as easy.

Is Traffic Really Worse at LSU than Other Places?

probably not..

I would imagine it being horrendous at Tulane right now since they just plopped a stadium in the middle of a residential area...with only River Road and Carrollton being the only major avenues in or out...

no, we aren't that bad. someone said it before, just relax and listen to the postgame show

But most people don't leave when we play a competitive team. Simple.

bullshite.

West Virginia, 2010. WVU was ranked 22nd. The game was close throughout. Stadium wasn't anywhere near full in the 4th quarter. The TV commentators even commented on it.

Same year....We are leading Mississippi State 12-7 in the 3rd quarter. Many have already departed the stadium in an SEC game that was within one score.

Traffic or not, people just don't stay for the entire game unless it is Alabama.

I laugh at the excuse that traffic is bad for those who leave at half time. I've been going to TS since 1961, when there were only 68K seats & post game traffic was bad even back then, as there was no "new" bridge, no I-10 & the roads in & round the stadium/campus were pretty much what they are now. People are just more impatient today. I get back to the car, unpack the food & beverages to a smaller degree, turn on the tv for the late game/score board, take my time, and have no problems leaving when I am ready.People left at half time of a 10-0 game did not leave because of traffic. It's simply a habit now.
