re: Full LSU Band Going to Ireland - Who Pays For Trip?Posted by LouisianaLonghorn on 7/24/13 at 5:51 pm to Jet12

We're doing a TON of extra stuff to pay for it. Playing at the Saints season opener, doing two Tigeramas in the same day, and plenty of other things, I'm sure.
I don't begrudge our band a fun trip to Ireland, but I do wish that they would go to more than one road game each year. I assume that the Cowboy Classic counts as their road trip for this season.

Yup. We'll have about 1/3 of the band at the rest of the games

When was the last time that the full band went to more than one road game during the regular season?

True road game? Not sure that has ever happened.
For the neutral site games and bowls the AD using the revenue from that game towards taking the band (They may even demand the Cowboy's Classic pay for the bands).
Traditionally, it has been 1 full band away trip, and 100 member pep bands for the other 3. That extends into the 90's.

The band pays for it out of their budget. My parents are going on the trip but I'm not.

I don't understand this at all. How much could it cost to bus the entire band to and from Starkville, Oxford, and Tuscaloosa? Good grief.

Apparently a lot. 2 buses vs. 7, 110/4 hotel rooms instead of 325/4...

So the full band can go to Ireland but never to Tuscaloosa - even with the millions football brings in. Bama brings their full band to BR
LSU academic and LSU athletics are two seperate financial entities.
It's one of few programs to require no support from the university. In fact, they cut the university a check every year.
Get over yourself.

The full band went to Auburn last year. If it weren't for the Cowboy Classic I'd have to guess they'd be going to either Georgia or Bama

Band member stipends come directly from the athletic dept which is funded separately from the university
We got four $160 checks during the fall semester in 1990-1991
StanleyB can eat a dick
TGBFTL MELLOs 90-91!
