MIZZOU was awesome. Really great fans who were very welcoming and gracious before and after the game.

Still amazed at "the bracelet" which got your free hotdogs, soft drinks, popcorn. They ran out of hotdogs several times but kept bringing up more each time. Not sure how they finance that.

Easiest travel to and from stadium. We took a free city transit shuttle from the hotel. It stopped at several hotels along the way. Dropped us off less than a block from the stadium and picked us up after the game. We were back at the hotel in less than 30 minutes. The parking garages downtown were all free parking on the weekend and the shuttles ran constantly back and forth. I realize there were only 70,000 people, but never seen anything so efficient.

THe campus was beautiful and immaculately kept. Students were walking everywhere on campus and into the downtown area which connected to the campus. Great atmosphere for a college town. CoMo was a nice little town. Scenic and so clean. Lots of walking, biking, sidewalks, green space. We never saw a sketchy part of town or homeless people.

Great trip.

I sure wish Broome didn't destroy the federally funded streetcar connecting downtown and LSU. Sure would make the hotel > stadium and back a shite ton easier and lighten the load on parking.

But it's Baton Rouge, if it doesn't help only certain people, we can't do it because it's racist.
