1. Eliminate parking passes except for RVs. That crap is an absolute cancer for your everyday fan. Those things are harder to get than tickets.

2. Concessions suck. Do better. I rather they hire that TikTok Cracker dude to just make one meal a game and offer that with soda/peanuts/candy.

3. This one I'm not sure about since its been 2019 since I been to a game...let fans take beer to the seats. I remember them making you stand in a designated area. I don't drink but that seems absurd.

Feel free to add more. Apparently the suggestion box is open for play calling, it must be open for other things.

1. Agree
2. Food is ONE thing La can brag about, do better LSU
3. People get their alcohol in regardless.

I'll add:

4. Get the damn chants back and band involved. Eff that piped in shite.

5. Tailgating shouldn't be restricted except around Oaks.

6. Stop the vaxx BS

7. Halftime seat availability to people that leave.

This sounds absurd but I won't go anymore without a parking pass. Last time somebody backed into my vehicle at the free lot behind the baseball stadium. Is what it is.

Most of the times I've been to games we just parked where we found a spot. One game I literally had to park on the median at the Winn-Dixie on Burbank and walk.. holy shite.

Anyway, one time I went with my buddy who had a parking pass. We got to the assigned lot and the lady said, "It's full."

Like.. wtf.. Do they give out more passes than they have spots for in certain lots?

They really need to release all the tailgate spots that are closed. I’m fine with parking passes but every free spot next to Nicholson should be jam packed with tailgaters.

And good God I’m not sure if LSU’s concessions could get worse. I’m not asking for lobster and caviar but at least a warm hot dog or burger in a non-stale bun.

LSU should be doing everything they can to make each home game the biggest party possible. Free concerts on the parade grounds or in front of the PMAC, lots and lots of lots where anyone can set up and party, open up campus. frick all these gates and restrictions.

Encourage student tailgating but supply ample trash cans and even trash bags. Quit with enforcing MIP’s. Let the campus be incredible for all of it.

I love my in-law’s parking pass, but if I have to give it up so that campus could be like it was in 05-13, let’s do it.

Yeah I parked in the lsu bus free parking lot and walked past those huge lots off Nicholson. About 1pm, only 1/5 of the spots were used with a few tailgates.

Let's say I want to tailgate ok campus without a parking pass these days? It takes an act of god to do. I need to haul tailgate supplies 2 miles or start working on the setup on Friday. Fine when I was 30, now I'm 40 with a family and I cannot do that.

Now you all showing that the chief bitchers dont even go to the games...

Concert in front PMAC every game
Parade Grounds wide open for student parties again.

Tailgating is not restricted but parking is. One small area reserved for paid catered tailgates.

If you do this, then all the lots around the stadium will be converted to employee parking.

And then all the lots around THOSE will be snapped up by the fools that set up shop at 5:00pm Thursday afternoon.

Doesn't matter whether there are parking passes or not: you're still not parking anywhere near the stadium.

I go to every game, tailgating is de-facto restricted by the free parking restriction. From skip bertman to Burbank along Nicholson was an absolute madhouse. But people would park there and tailgate. No one is going to tailgate if you can’t park with your setup. Eliminate the parking, eliminate the tailgating. Now they push all the free parking into lots, the majority of which over a mile away from the stadium.

I’ll also note that there are less portable toilets and less trash cans on campus.

Great! Fans that actually want to be there and have fun!

Again, I understand the reason for parking passes. Typical LSU, though, they want to squeeze every penny out so they eliminate free parking semi-near the stadium.

They cut them in half. The lines on Saturday were ridiculous and it campus wasn't even crowded.

And... I went to get the overnight sticker for my trailer on Friday and the place was closed. I called the ticket office and they said they sold out. I told them that it was impossible they sold out. I've never had a problem getting a trailer sticker even for much more crowded games. She says "it's a really big game sir." Give me a break.

I swear LSU is trying to keep people off of campus. This is very likely my last year to have season tickets.

because the animals trash the place. It's not that hard to throw your trash in the nearest trash can.

Agree with the Band and the chants. There is no reason Auburn's (or any visitor's) band should be winning in the "pep rally" department. I'd watch Auburn's band fire up and watch LSU just sit and watch. The old days, LSU would fire right back and drown them out.

Agree, but there may be some "safety/liability" issues. In any case the institution does not give two shakes of Ed Orgeron's A$$ about the fans, students, go down the list. It is 100% about how much money they can squeeze out of people. That's it.
