Fewer seats, put party areas at the top of the upper decks, premium seats down low, field club, etc. Make it a better experience and people will stay

People leave because they can have fun at the tailgate during the game and because of traffic.

And double the amount of bathrooms. That is what Steve Balmer did for the new Clippers arena... why have all those people in line for the bathroom when they could be buying stuff or enjoying the game.

It's mostly traffic. If traffic was seamless getting out, that would be a major help.

Either we miss a quarter of football standing in line for the bathroom or to buy nachos. No sense in fixing one if they're not going to fix the other.

I would agree the upper decks need to be revamped similar to the south endzone. Also the first few rows of the sideline, maybe even all around the field, could be turned into party suites. The view from those rows suck anyway and you could get more money from suites.
Then find a way to track attendance and revoke tickets of people who leave early from the visible seats. You want to be at the game but not be engaged? Buy a suite. Otherwise show up and fricking yell.

Traffic is terrible sometimes, but 90% of the time leaving campus from the levee lots is a piece of cake. I don't understand why people pay so much money to park near the stadium, only to sit in traffic for two hours trying to leave it. Walk the mile and a half from the levee lots to the stadium and back. It's much easier.

bullshite.

And those are the type of people who, if they do stay, don't give two shits about the game.

The people who want to get loud and actually care are the ones who stay.

I don't know what people expect to happen in regards to traffic. There are 150k people on campus and one route north and two routes south. Where is everyone gonna go?

Have season tickets in NEZ, it’s easier to walk to pop up concessions in SEZ than deal with the lines, tight concourses and people sitting down trying to charge a phone.

The stadium has way too much dead space that needs to be utilized. The concourses need to be widened, bathrooms and concessions all rebuilt from scratch.

Tennessee just did upgrades, Florida is about to do the same and LSU will just throw another set of Jani King sponsored porto potty’s near the sections.

LSU is bottom tier when it comes to any facility upgrade in comparison to the upper echelon of SEC programs.

Missing the point.
Create higher end areas for those people who are there to be seen. Make more money off them.
Open up regular seats to real fans who show up and show out.

Stadium looks more full even if it isnt. Is louder b/c the concentration of fans are in the stands not nosebleeds.

1000% agree. The old girl ain’t what she used to be. Realistically it should be set up to give 90K people a premium experience .

Its a shame so much money was spent on the SEZ. By time it was finished, the race for biggest stadium was long past. Today, it is about the best, not the biggest. What LSU really needs is a new stadium, built to last for another 50 years, with room for modernization every decade or so.

There needs to be a field level club in the NEZ. You can charge a lot more for this to idiots that want to be seen and it’s terrible views.

Those geriatric fricks aren’t doing that. Combined with the fat and lazy it’s much easier to just bitch about it.

So you would revoke the seats of someone who fell ill from shitty nachos at halftime and left?

People will be mad, but Alabama has done the best at stadium upgrades. It’s a clean look, symmetrical and doesn’t look like Frankenstein from the outside.

LSU never had a master plan and that’s why it looks different on every side. The inside needs to be pressure washed, repainted, move the portals so that they have some flow to them.
