Spring game attendance doesn't matter at all

It is embarrassing to only see 21,000 when the other SEC schools are putting 60,000 plus in the seats. Why is this?
that is because the schools that draw in a lot of folks to their spring game draw the folks to campus with a lot of other events like baseball games, concerts, etc.
for instance, this was Super Bulldog Weekend at MS State...

Spring game is as useless as Big Cat Drill

Spring games are for the coaches and players, not the fans.

I graduated from LSU in '84 and don't remember anyone ever giving a rat's butt about the Spring Game.
Gumps feel an obligation to go to their spring game just so they can brag about it and so that they're not out-attended by Auburn.

I was at LSU from 85 to 89. I don't remember even having a Spring game in those years. I know the band didn't play in them, since I was in both the marching band and basketball bands and would have gone.

The spring game is pretty useless for the fans. I have been to a few and it nice to see s little football. Coaches are watching for certain things from certain players. That's about it. I actually praise lsu fans for having other things to do. Ohio State had over 100,000 fans for a spring game..... Really???????

I don't think it's all embarrassing

The first one I attended was in 1968 and that was the year before the 9-1 Record in 1969. The team in 1969 was probably the best team that LSU had and especially the Defense. I tried to go every year and the last one I went to was in 2006 the year I moved out of the U.S. If I was still there I would be going to the Spring Games. I enjoyed just getting out and eating somewhere and talking to friends at the game. I always saw someone that I knew. One year and cannot remember the year, I got to sit with Benjy Thibodeaux. Jim Burks was there also who was Shawn's brother.
