I'd imagine more LSU fans travel to Omaha (even if they don't go to the game) than any other college baseball program. Seems like it might be enough to make a significant difference with regards to tax revenue from hotels, etc.

Or is roughly all about the same as any bigger school?

No there isn't. There is a bar that LSU fans tend to congregate at.

I think you know the answer to this question, which is why you asked it.

Yes. Omaha loves LSU. I wish I could go. They literally go out of their way to welcome and show LSU fans a good time. You could go to Omaha with no place to stay and get invites with no problems. Just wear your LSU gear and be nice.

There was an awesome article by the people in Omaha when LSU made it there in 2009.

Anybody have it?

I thought I heard them say on the game broadcast last night (somewhat tongue in cheek) that LSU will have more fans in Omaha than all 7 other schools combined.

I wonder if 49ers & ravens fans talk about how much new orleans loves them and how they have their own bars because waitresses wear their jerseys.
