Because this is Louisiana and typically it's 90+ at that time. It shouldn't be this year, but it has been in previous years. Miserable experience for everyone involved and most leave shortly after the game starts. I went a couple years ago and my wife and kids had to go down at halftime because they were burned to a crisp.


I've missed 1 spring game in the past 6 years. Heat was never a problem and it's not hard to put sunscreen on when you know you'll be out in the sun for more than a couple hours.

Yeah, I leave every spring game early, but never because of the heat. Rather, because of boredom.

i can understand leaving because of boredom, but heat? Is it really 105 out there or something? Besides this year, it's usually hot all the time.

No. I remember a couple years ago it was pretty hot. Definitely not 90+. Nothing that drinking some water and putting on sunscreen can't easily combat. Won't even be 80 this year.

Not THAT hot. It's April. The main issue in April in S. Louisiana is rain and pollen.
