shite, they probably would, but that's because living in Alabama and being a Tide fans means you absolutely have jack shite going for you thus really screwy priorities. Like I said before, they're also the fanabase most likely to murder their coach. Screw that.

Didn't mean to upset you, Joe. It's just that I think you're a useless queef.

Too bad they didn't line up some kickass act like One Republic to draw a crowd.


ETA: For the person who downvoted this, I typed it in sarcasm font but TD messed up the formatting.

Good for you for staying until the end.

I was at the game last week after having minor surgery. I was on pain meds. As I am healing, I'm hurting more now than I was last week. Tomorrow is questionable for a number of reasons.

Last week, pain meds and all, I stayed until the band cheered "LSU Tigers, Fight Fight Fight!"

I bet if this was same situation at bama, they would sell their stadium out. I hate saying that but it's true. 38,000 is piss poor and is embarrassing. It will look very bad on us on TV.




You're the worst kind of "fan".

You can say that, but every year more places where you could previously park for free are blocked off, you have to pay increasing prices for parking on top of increasing ticket prices, it gets more difficult to get to campus for a number of people and it becomes a hassle that some don't feel like dealing with. Yes, some LSU fans are very bandwagon and crappy, but LSU has a lot of great ones too.

Just ask the Syracuse fans and media up there that couldn't quit talking about LSU selling their whole allotment and taking over the town when we played them.


I been having season tix for 16 years , I tailgate every week there's a game .....from the first year until now I'm about a half mile further from the stadium , I don't like it but I make due ....

As far as Syracuse , I don't have to ask their fans ,,,, I was there ..

We really have no way to estimate the quality of this crowd as it's such a rare occurrence. I would love to be there, but I made plans prior. I'm sure that's a big reason why tickets aren't selling. It isn't a lack of desire to attend, it's the fact that most LSU fans make plans months in advance around football season for the few weekends when there isn't a home game.

You want a full stadium, play it at night. This. I bought tickets and am going, but I certainly don't judge anyone that isn't going to shift plans they've likely had for months based on this being an away game. At least Joe is doing us a solid and letting us bring in a water bottle!


I agree that playing at night would have gotten more of the local BR crowd to buy. I think the afternoon kick was chosen to give people within a 3 hour drive the opportunity to go to the game without getting a hotel. However, it looks like that isn't panning out like they hoped. A night game would have been the better choice, if they could have made it work with TV.

That should go without saying, and it's fricking pathetic that this shite has to be brought up.

You're a fricking genius! This is par for the course...we average under 50K fans, these days, because of the les miles offense.
