Just kidding about that Saints game.

Probably realistically like this one.



This is a second half shot, it was more packed in the first half. People left early to go prepare for the hurricane.

Why will there not be a packed house? Do that many people travel in or need weeks to plan a trip to a game?

I would expect people within 2 hours in all directions of LA would be raving about "getting back a home game" after losing the McNeese game. Even more, this is an SEC game.

Many people travel in from hours away. Many people make plans for away weekends. USCe is bad. It will be 90 degrees at kickoff. LSU fans aren't as hardcore as they think they are.

I'm thinking around 60k. I got my usually season ticket seats. My dad talked to some of the folks who sit around us. They are all going. It may just be a speck of us in our section though,

Looking at the seats still available on the LSU site I would say 50 to 55,000.

There are more people from out of town that attend games than you think. I for one have 10 tickets. We planned on a fishing trip during the away weekend. Just can't make it in. I know many people in our section live in Texas or lake Charles and it makes it tough to plan another trip down so close to the game.

88 degrees, $75 tickets, limited staff (bathroom attendants, parking attendants, traffic details, limited concessions and people already made other plans (weddings, parties, vacations, etc.)

If it doesn't get at least close to 80k it will show how terrible our fanbase really is.

Aleva has already said they are only staffing the game with 75% of their moral staff and won't upper two of the upper decks unless there is a need so LSU isn't preparing for 80K, if you as fan are expecting more than that you are setting yourself up for disappointment

That was a weird day. Somewhere, I do have a picture of myself drinking a beer in Tiger Stadium though.

How on earth will it show anything other than that around 50% of our fans come from outside BR. Yall saying it will show how bad our fans are please tell me how?

Why would we have sold out games every week, or a waiting list years long to get tickets. Then we don't sell out a game in 3 days.
