-Get to campus early. You are going to want to tailgate for as long as possible. By 9:30am you should already be on your third Guinness.
-Introduce yourself and make friends. LSU fans love to host guests and will go out of their way to make sure you have a great time. Telling them it's your first LSU game will get you fed and boozed all day. Tell them you came all the way from Europe for it and you'll be treated like a golden god.
-Stay the whole game even if it's a rout. Too many people break this rule nowadays.
-Plan to get wild after the game. Not sure how old you are, but Baton Rouge has a number of places that cater to partygoers of all ages. Be mindful of parking. Only park somewhere if you know your car won't be towed if you leave it overnight
-See and do everything. You won't remember any of it anyway.

Be ready to be told by every single American you meet that they have Irish blood.
Americans are proud of their Irish ancestry

Probably so...when it comes to drinking, every European I've ever talked to considers American beer to be water lol.
LSU has a tradition of Saturday night games at home, so almost every game in Tiger Stadium is a 6 or 7pm kickoff. Only time its usually earlier in the day is when CBS picks the LSU game for their 2:30 game because CBS has first pick of TV rights for SEC games in their 2:30 time slot. Unless the Florida game gets rescheduled for Nov 19, expect any game vs South Alabama to be an evening kickoff. But I'd still recommend getting out there early...9-10 in the morning to have a full day of tailgate experience and have enough time to get a good buzz because once you're inside the stadium, they don't sell beer.
Like someone else mentioned, strike up a conversation with some tailgaters and mention that you're an LSU fan from Ireland attending your first game and you'll likely be welcomed into that tailgate party as an honored guest with all the food and beer you want.
