Why do ya'll think that majority of the arena stayed seated when video board stated stand until Tigers score their first points? LSU first scored at the 19:16 minute mark of the 1st half.

Probably because it’s a new thing, and they never made an announcement about it. Some people probably didn’t see it.

Gameday operations fails again. It’s pretty laughable at this point.

They made strides today. They tried to let the game flow more, and there was less DJ presence. They waited on the small fry cam until we were up by 25+ in the 2nd half.

The video on the video board right before tip off with the players saying to stand up until we win, was a big hint for everyone to stand up to start the game.

I didn’t see it. A handful of people a few rows ahead of us stood but I didn’t know why.

They sat down when USCe scored.

Sound system is still a garbled mess most of the time.

There were a lot of people with kids who saw their first game tonight. It’s better than during the non conference schedule.

Depends on how you define “new.”

We used to do this all the time in early 2000’s when I was in school. Not sure when it stopped. I would imagine at some point when the students stopped coming to games.

Because we don’t have the same BB program as Duke or Kentucky

Hope this doesn’t become a tradition in football when we host Alabama...

LSUAD seems to think we're all more interested in attending a concert in both Tiger Stadium and the PMAC, rather than watch a football and basketball game.

I don't need to be "Entertained" for every waking second of an LSU Athletic event with blasting music. I'm there to watch the game.

TGBFTL and Bengal Brass playing intermittently are enough music. I'm good...…...

I had to balance my popcorn on my lap and hold my coke.

Maybe students used to but that doesn’t really count. The arena as a whole definitely never did that.

It’s a rip off of what Hornets fans used to do.
