When LSU went there in '95 you would have thought we were in the national championship game.

I went to the Grantland Rice Bowl in Tiger Stadium many, many moons ago.

Raising Cane's Tiger Bowl or Gordon/attorneys as the sponsor? Watch some Az St vs Pitt or whoever non-playoff game in Tiger Stadium.
Bring back the Grantland Rice Bowl

Traction could be both the sponsor and the host.

I mean it's as good or better than Shreveport

Could take the teams to Top Golf, Main Event, Perkins Rowe, The Shaw Center, BR ZOO, The Battleship

I kind of like it

I think a bowl game in Tiger Stadium would be pretty cool for some of those smaller Group of 5 teams. AAC vs Sunbelt or even Mountain West if they want to travel south for the Winter. But I just looked at the bowl tie ends. I'm not sure if the smaller conferences have enough bowl eligible teams to fill these as it is. So maybe we could swing big and get a Big 12 vs ACC game. Currently B12 vs ACC is tied to Pop Tart Bowl. They could also get paired in Servpro first responders bowl, but so can the AAC too. This year the #6 Big12 is tied to Independence bowl vs Army according to the site I saw. That would be TCU. I think a #7 Big12 (Texas Tech) vs #6 ACC (Georgia Tech) would be pretty cool to see in Tiger Stadium if I was bored. It would have to be a day game.

Hell yea. In 2012, my buddy and I drove to San Diego to watch louisiana tech play TCU. While there, we met a local guy in the stands who really knew nothing of the teams but would come to random games like that to just see different teams and people and enjoy a random sporting event.

Next day, we went to the MASSIVE San Diego zoo, and guess who was there but our local friendly Cali pot enthusiast lol. Super cool and friendly guy. Just enjoying some local events.

Hell yes I would consider seeing a random pair of teams and meeting non Louisianans.

I have zero desire to watch college football outside of LSU, and that has started to take its toll as well.
