My parents are coming in town for their first ever LSU game! They've been to campus before and they're from Louisiana, so it's not like LSU is an entirely new thing to them. But its their first tailgate/game ever. Any things I should specifically bring them to do? Was thinking about bringing them to see the band march down the hill (dad played trumpet in high school, figured he would like that) and see the team. What else?

Take them down sorority row since it is homecoming. Maybe watch the parade too.

If they like live music there will be a band playing at the tiger village outside the P Mac. I'd take them to Mike's cage if they haven't seen that

The pros hit the stadium after band marches down the hill. Watch that, then find your gate.

I hate it when out of towners miss the pre game. It's my favorite part of stadium experience.

Mike doesn't live in a freaking Cage! More like "Solitary Confinement Habitat."

I'd recommend parking at the Chevron at Roosevelt and Highland. Only $25 for the whole day and the nice folks will keep a keen eye on your car while you're away.

1. Have them help you fill piss balloons.

2. Stroll down sorority row for homecoming.

3. Walk through the Parade Grounds and past Indian Mounds.

4. Shop next to Mike's cage to load up on purple and gold swag.

5. Visit Mike the Tiger.

6. Stand in a place that allows you to see the team and band march down Victory Hill.

7. Have your parents helps sneak bourbon into the stadium by using your mom's purse and a convenient pack of feminine products that can lie on top of the flasks.

8. Get into the stadium in time to witness Pregame.

9. Throw the piss balloons at will.

Extra credit:

10. Have your mom and dad join in as you berate a small child in WKU gear who is eating an ice cream cone to the point where said child cries.

11. Find the concession stand where Ray Lewis works.
