Students leaving the student section before the game is over has been a perennial problem. I don't think there is a solution for it. The student section used to be way larger than it is today and remember that the university exist for the students. There will have to be an incentive for the students to want to attend the games and to stay for the entire game.

Fans will get excited if we have a chance for a national title.
There are too many regulations on parking and tailgating and the price of everything is high.
There was a time when the game was not on tv. Now every game is on tv and my restroom is only 40 feet away and my soft drink only cost about 50 cents. My sofa is lot more comfortable.

With all that said a game in Tiger Stadium can be a life changing experience. I still remember as a small child seeing Charlie Macs' last game in Tiger Stadium.

LSU can do what Bama does for the student section where during the 4th quarter they show a QR code they can scan to get points. The more points they have the higher priority they have when it comes to getting tickets to any sporting event.

This is the correct answer. Product has been diluted. Cellphones didn't exist either.

IMHO, this is the main thing. If we are in the hunt, unless blowing someone out, people show up.

People know the taste of success now and won’t pay for everything that comes with a gameday, both money and time, if there’s no shot at a natty.
