He walks to his car at halftime and watches the game from a drone that he flies around TS in the 3rd and 4th quarter while listening to Hawthorne's call.

I don't get it. There are still about a dozen possible things that could happen in the last 10 seconds.

That's because all of those intentional fouls at the end of games is the worst part of basketball.

When breaking the rules at the end of a game gives you a better chance to win, there is something wrong with the game.

Oh. Well who hasn't done this. That's no secret.

Um, not at all. Not even a hint of a what it is. Anchor this out of principle.

The title leads you to believe there is an included strategy. There is none. Direct violation of TD rules.

I thought it was interesting that this "old school" guy had this mentality. I thought it was only the new generations that were ruining all of the traditions.


No, a buddy of mine has season tickets and a parking pass. Leaves at halftime and skedaddles home to Shenendoah area to catch end of game on TV.

No.
The guy with the secret is the same guy that always has the inside information that nobody else ever has.

I saw the last play and was on the Miss River bridge within 15 minutes. Do what makes sense in your own case, and don't expect 102,321 people to have the same constraints and/or preferences.

If you tailgate a little more after the game ends, how long do you have to wait before the traffic clears?

I was at the fraternity house and Sorority Row took an hour to clear out.

I believe that you started this post just to get a reaction. I live in Montgomery, Al. and I went to one game in TS. If memory serves me right, I saw the student section make an early exit. People, regardless of age, will leave early to avoid the clusterfrick that happens with the traffic woes that happens before and after LSU home games. Last week when the cops directed the traffic after the game, the clusterfrick was worse than ever.

Yes leaving events early was just invented recently.

There really wasn't much to it other than watching the last 2-3 minutes from an exit. The point was that the old guy was trying to coach me on how to leave early. The "secret" was just sarcasm.
