re: WBRZ Gameday Traffic Story for those who are Interested.

Here is the thesis:
LSU greatly reduced parking areas.
There are less spots.
People arrive Early for tailgating.
All the spots are taken.
Many of these people don't go into the game at any point-they just tailgate. (cool)
The lots fill up earlier than in previous years causing massive traffic jams.
Many people continue to drive past lots to seek new lots.
Many people can't find a spot and arrive late, or get frustrated and turn around.

I will confirm with my personal anecdote that this year for the first time I personally have dropped off a vehicle the night before and/or arrived at 7 am to secure a spot.
