Stadium looks embarrassing on TV with wide swaths of empty seats


I’m not embarrassed, why do empty seats make you feel shame?

Last night I attended my first game in about 4 years. It took us 1 hour and 22 minutes to get out of the parking lot (I noted the time when we got into the vehicle). From that point it took us 48 minutes to get to the interstate. We did not leave until the final play

I park at the churches on Dalrymple. Admit that’s a long walk from Tiger Stadium, but the traffic flowed well last night going north from Dalrymple. Home in Central in 40 minutes

I love lsu football and going to games. I once went on a more than decade stretch of going to every game home and away. Every game. I’ve had season tickets for more than 20 years. I now bring all of my kids.

All that being said, I’m looking forward to watching games at home next week more than I look forward to going to campus for a game.

The experience has changed (both in the stadium and at home).

I think with LSU specifically it’s a traffic flow issue.


Have you ever tried to get in and out of Tuscaloosa on a gameday? One way out. Traffic is horrible.

Not attending is one thing, but making the effort to get there then leaving early is another.

I always hangout in stadium for a few minutes, walk to car, then just sit there listening to post game. It’s less stressful and I only get home a few minutes later

Most people that complain about the attendance at LSU games don't even go to the games.
