Malone Stadium ran out of food and drinks BEFORE halftime last night. The only thing available during the second half was funnel cakes.

I guess they're used to crowds like this, not 31,000.

I really hope this can become a regular thing for them. If they can finish strong this year, maybe they can stay somewhat respectable. I was thinking last night that the field looks way better than it ever has and their uniforms looked cool too. Little stupid things like that can help sway some of the recruits that fly under the radar but are very respectable like Browning

Yeah Cocks...I finally found one concession stand that had canned cokes just after halftime on the second level. Pretty terrible. Hopefully they learn from this and have it overstocked next time, if anything. But, I too hope this type of support continues...

Yeah, I was there, they ran out before half. We didnt understand why they just didnt take a truck and go 2 miles over and buy drinks to re-sell. It would have taken about 30 min tops and at least by mid-half you would have been back in business.

Concessions wasnt prepared at all ashame, lost a lot of money there.

That is crazy, I mean they knew how many tickets were sold. They should have been more prepared

The crowd was also not ready for a great game. I was so frustrated last night when people would not yell or get loud on big downs, and I just about blew a gasket whe the crowd would get loud on ULM's third down chances.

They need to learn how to cheer and when.

to be fair, more than half of them have never been to a ULM football game and probably won't ever go to another one

90% of those people were baptists that were probably cheering for Baylor anyway.

At least they don't tarp off sections like Tech and still don't even fill up.

I went to get drinks before halftime but they didn't have change and the only drinks left were Dr. Pepper. They took $5 for two drinks since they had no change. They were totally unprepared.

I had a great time there last night but my biggest complaint was trying to exchange my online ticket for a real ticket. Then they decide to let everybody just turn in their online receipts.

Sounds like a lot of growing pains. I am sure there is some beeauracratic bullshite that got in the way of proper planning.
