For starters I would hope in the inner ring of campus it's not as bad, but on the outskirts it's become an epidemic.

I could live with the 2-3 times a tailgate kids coming up and trying to sell me skittles like they somehow had the last bag on earth. But now it's every 10-15 minutes, and that's really not an exaggeration at all.

Anyone else experience this? I'm not sure what LSU can do. I know this is probably way down on their priority list on gameday, but man it's getting out of control.

It has grown but I wouldn't consider it out of control.

A simple "not today" or "not interested" and they move on.

My drunk, aggressive body language on gamedays scares these kids from ever approaching me I think

Some guy stopped us at the top of the hill for USCe game and was trying to con us out of something. He had an old "Farfrommpuken" sticker that he took out of his pocket. It reminded me of the "You're not smiling" squad down in NOLA and get give you a $25 ticket and you get a hat. It's gotten OOC.

People who don't really have any business being on campus bothering other people who don't really have any business being on campus. Fine with me.

It must differ by tailgate area. We're by Memorial Tower and pretty much just a couple of kids selling candy and some buy selling ugly, hand made jewelry.
