dude its all about the kids. No one cares that much. You want a good football team? Well you need good players. They like the rap music.


Those “kids” you’re talking about are getting paid to play.

No…. The music being blared over the loudspeakers should 100% be for the people paying to be there.

If they can figure out how to deal with traffic after the game, most people who leave early would stay for the end.

If everyone else has a gun, I guess I’ll start bringing mine. Better to have and not need.

I can handle to piped in music, concessions etc. if it weren’t for the amount of and length of commercial breaks. It’s out of control.
_________________________________________________________

40, been going to games for 23 years. It's the same it's been since the mid 2000s. I agree with this comment. The TV breaks get me, that's it. The band still gets it's time to shine.

I don't have the concession issues you guys have; I don't dislike the bathrooms. I mean it's a burger, it's a bowl of jambalaya, it's a dog...if I want Michelin, I go to a Michelin.

Maybe because I'm from Baton Rouge and know my way around, I don't really have issues with traffic. I park north of Highland, and go to government street mostly every time, without much of a hitch. There's been the occasional WTF traffic (Florida with Tebow, LSUvSU) moments, but I don't really see it how you guys do.

Regarding the music and weed. I think you parents need to really grab your kids' phones and listen to what they all are listening to. Vapes are more common than anything, which is a gateway to weed I'm sure. That's what your high school kids and college kids are doing. They smoke weed. Get over it.

God forbid you have daughters. Those "thugs" that you're talking about. They like them. A lot. They hook up with them too. A lot. I can't tell you what to do, but I'd stop calling them all the names that you do aside of people, because your daughters probably see husbands. LOL. Trust the home training that you've taught them. Allow them to fall and make their mistakes.

I've been saying it across the zillions of common threads about it, there should definitely be more decorum. There definitely should be more sense of urgency from a safety standpoint...but guys, the tailgate at Highland and Stadium has been going on now, during homecoming for the past decade atleast, if not closer to 15 years. Hopefully those in charge see this as a time to reset safety standards, and figure out a better policy to attack the high school aged kids (parade grounds massive congregations & highland rd loiterers alike) who are just on campus hanging out looking to start a ruckus. That's our issue. Not the kids who are enrolled.

Reflective of a general coarsening and deterioration of society and culture,
with resultant loss of law and order.

If you're spending time on a football Saturday at Stadium & Highland, you're doing it wrong.

They’ve made the PA music an annoyance.

A few seasons ago when it was LSU v Southern to play music over the bands was criminal.

Oh no not rap music. They should only play gospel or Alan Jackson on 3rd down.


Students and Fans use to be entertained by the LSU Band. All this music and shite is obnoxious.

Is this from personal experience? Sorry that happened to you


Sounds like you enjoy shitty atmospheres too. Maybe you need to elevate your standards a little bit

College football needs the band playing 90% of the time

The band is playing often. They’re just drowned out by the piped in music. The in game entertainment staff needs to just figure out how to balance it.

No one is one the corner.

Can see it fine from the Ag Center and walking around campus.
