How tone deaf is Joe Alleva when it comes to this corporate tailgating company?

This guy just doesn’t get it. You jack up prices to park around campus and then bring in this bullshite. Give tailgating back to the fans, not to some corporate shills.
Again, the guy doesn’t get it. Making a quick buck will have him losing money in the long term. Another example of his incompetence.
But I shouldn’t be surprised by this point.

How exactly is this service hurting you? Just do what you normally do on game day, and everything will be fine.
I think the whole thing is kinda hokey myself, so I simply won't use their service. If some fans do elect to do this, what difference does it make? There is no feasible way that this can turn into some sort of large scale deal that engulfs the entire campus. It just isn't logistically or physically possible. Let them have their little area to do this. If people want it, great. Doesn't affect me one way or the other.

He’s not tone deaf. He just DGAF. He knows he’s already completely lost the fan base. The only way to save his job is increasing TAFs revenue and making that other higher up douche, Alexander happy.
By starting this policy he achieves both.

The Board of Supergarbage needs to be called out here personally every day until Alleva is replaced. Boycott their businesses, take action.

Is it just me or does the high top tent look like 1. A circus. 2. A tent shaped like a dunce hat.
Where yat? I’m over here in the dunce field! 3rd circus tent on the left. With the cool personalized sign. Did you get the Boca burgers? You didn’t? Oh well I’ll have the bellhop go grab some for us. Epic tailgate!
This is so silly.

You mean fans like Castpuncher?

I despise Alleva as much as the next guy, but this much ado about nothing. Alabama has a similar setup in a couple lots and it works well for the corporate crowd. I've been invited a couple times by folks I do business with for the LSU games and it's been an ok experience. Would I want to do it every week and look for it to be the experience I have with friends at home games? Nope......but to make a few dollars for the university and get the corporate folks involved, it's pretty good.
All of this is contingent on it being cordoned to an area that currently doesn't really attract organic tailgates if you will.

This is just LSU’s continuing the war on tailgating. They would just get rid of it if they could

Eventually, tailgating will be like parking, you will have to pay for your spot at the start of the year and you will only be able to tailgate in that area. If you are tailgating without a "permit" they will remove you.

He I following the Alabama model. They did the same thing years ago. High priced tailgating. Driving out the “little guy”. Mostly corporate and high dollar fans. It will work, it not for the common fan.

My main problem with the idea is that someone local wasn't chosen. The business should have been kept in state instead of Texas.
There are plenty of Louisiana catering companies and restaurants.

We are trying to keep up and stay on top of programs that pay their coaches 10 million a year while keeping up with the modern athletic facility war. Gotta create revenue wherever possible.

He is an idiot. The only ones dumber than Joe are his boss and those fans that offer support to his decisions by forking over money for all the taxes he’s implementing through drastically higher prices while greatly lessening the experience. Cancel your tickets and stay home until there’s a change in leadership. It’s been liberating.

LSU sports will sell their soul for a dollar.
I'm hearing Joe is in intense negotiations with Hamas and Al Qaeda over who is going to get the "official terrorist organization of LSU football" title.

I will not personally be using this service, nor will it change or disturb our current tailgate. I don’t think it will go over as well for LSU fans as possibly it does with other schools and their fan base.
But, some of these decisions are solely based on how disrespectful our fans are. Go look at campus after a Saturday night game and look at how much garbage is left. This is probably being explored as an extra revenue source and a way to combat the litter issue.

As dumb as this move is relative to people actually using it, I think JA is trying to exhaust all other revenue options before jacking up game ticket prices even more.
He’s attacking the people with deep pockets who don’t want the hassle of setting up tailgates. Although it becomes pointless if the people have to haul their own food and drinks to the tailgate.
