re: What is Brant Denny stadium like?

Tide fans do not leave early.

Yes, they do. This doesn't just happen at LSU. I was there in 2019 when we went up big before halftime, and a fairly sizable number of Gumps headed for the exits. They also frequently leave early when Bama is beating up on an outmanned opponent.

Does LSU still have a soul?

Yes, but I do agree that it's not what it once was. Far more people now attend games as a social exercise rather than having any real interest in what's happening on the field. Again, that's not just an LSU problem.

Traffic and horrible concessions don't help the situation, neither does the fact that games sometimes last up to four hours due to dozens of commercials (a 2:30 CBS game is an exercise in agony).

Bars and restaurants near TS... are lacking IMHO....

I definitely agree with you here. Other than The Chimes, there's not much available within walking distance. It's not like UGA, where their campus is adjacent to downtown Athens with lots of restaurants and bars within easy walking distance.

Scott Woodward has done a lot of good things since taking over as AD, but he really needs to do something to improve the overall gameday experience for fans, and I don't mean adding lame emcees and DJs.
