Losing a home game is almost like a year without Christmas for retailers.
Wait lets not jump off a cliff here.....it ain't that bad for anyone. I mean bars, restaurants, hotels, rental car places, and MSY may feel it cut pretty deep but not as bad as if Santa shut down

I just know what I hear. The value of an LSU home game is in the millions to BR area businesses. The impact is, in fact, felt all the way to NOLA.
Before anyone and everyone jumps down my throat, I'm all for these types of games. For several reasons, not least being the money LSU makes. It's also huge for recruiting.
There's always two sides to a coin though.
