I've been to 7 other SEC football stadiums for game and every single one of them shits on the food Tiger Stadium has.


Ole miss football has this figured out. It's fast, good, and not overly priced. Even give you a cup for unlimited drink refills

only fat people and children need to eat during the game, or maybe diabetics. just get some popcorn or peanuts.

Add this to the MASTER LIST of yet another thing that Scott Woodward hasn't done jack shite about. He has done nothing since stepping on campus. NOTHING in any area of LSU Athletics.

Fans at Tiger Stadium should be raving about the quality of food instead of complaining how bad it is and about poor service. We live in Louisiana for goodness sakes! People in Mississippi love chicken on a stick but geez, how basic is that. Our menu doesn't have to be extensive but it should be excellent and things that are authentically Cajun/Louisiana based.
Scott Woodward should get Dickie Brennan, John Folse, and John Besh or others to be part of a team to redesign the menu, script the execution and then train people to oversee the game day experience. Out of state visitors to TS should be going home and telling everyone how great they dined in TS.

Apologize this is long:

I used to work for concessions. It's not necessarily Aramark. The Concessions Manager Larry Wallace is incompetent and does not know what he's doing. The manager that was supposed to have the job was forced to leave because the powers at be at LSU liked Larry even though he was fired from Compass Group, the last company contracted with LSU Concessions for getting drunk on the job and stealing liquor. They still wanted him back because he was Concessions Manager at FIU under Aramark. They do things at the last minute and when you make suggestions, they force you to quit or make your life miserable because "they've done it for x number of years and know what's best" even when you make suggestions. They are currently on their 5th human resource manager since switching to Aramark. No one wants to work for Larry.

Volunteer groups don't want to work because he steals their money and lies to them saying they did it. I've seen them personally change inventory numbers to take money away from volunteer groups. I wasn't allowed back and was never formally fired. The last HR manager told me Larry and Tammy Rowe didn't want me back because I was "difficult to work with". I learned how they were stealing from groups and tried helping them to keep their money. They knew this and "got rid of me" because I knew their game.

I went back to volunteer with one of the groups only to tell the group leader that I couldn't work with them without giving an explanation as to why. I was nor escorted to leave or anything. Just that I wasnt allowed to volunteer.

Larry Wallace and Tammy Rowe should have been fired years ago and are only there now because of people inside the athletic department keeping them. Either fire them now or get another partner and fire them then. Either way, nothing will change with them in charge. They will always change managers and workers but they make the decisions.

Aramark is a garbage company that gets contracts because they are able to come in as the lowest bidder. They are over custodial and food services for EBR Schools. That should say enough about them.

Plan ahead and eat before you go. As an adult, surely you can go more than four hours without eating.


Kids must love it when you take them to a game. Oh wait, clearly you haven’t had that experience. When you finally get that experience you might also get some relief from trying to prove everyone wrong. It’s a freeing thing. The fact that you think the answer to bad food experience at LSU is to simply not eat is telling (or planning ahead presumably at least six hours because that’s a minimum for most going into a game and before they can leave the stadium and get to a decent restaurant or home).

Well now you’re bringing kids into the mix and changing the argument. However, I’ve brought my oldest daughter to a handful of games as a 3 year old, I just to go to concessions when it’s not busy, like right at kick off for both halves when everyone has finished getting their things.

Idk maybe we have different strategies as to when you go.


But if bad food that is overpriced is solely the problem, like in the OP, then don’t eat it. OP didn’t say anything about kids and neither did your first response.

What are the alternatives if you are there for four hours and hungry? They won’t let you bring food in.


Stop moving the goal posts and maybe you should calm down a little too.
