I've been parking on W Roosevelt by that little softball/baseball field for free at the football games for years without any issues. Got broken into last night. They knew what they were doing. They were good. They hit a whole line of cars on the W Roosevelt side of that little field by those old apartments. Cops said this is the second week in a row. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

I park over that way myself, due to the rain I found a different spot, so I got lucky. I hate to hear that and I hope the POS get caught. Thanks for the heads up.

Is that the same road the guy warned of last week and left laptops luggage and shite in his car?

Been over that way for years. You never hear anyone on that side complaining about the traffic after games. I've never had an issue. Unfortunately, that seems to be changing.

Can't wait for investors to buy that shite property up and push the trash out.

I have parked there for years without a problem. Don't leave anything of value in sight and don't drive a Rolls Royce and you'll be fine.

I lived in those shite apartments back in the 80's. It sucked even back in those days. Constant car burglaries and an occasional residential break in as well. It was incredibly cheap and convenient but, the area sucked.

I agree with someone said. A developer should buy that area and redevelop it. It would be a gold mine due to the proximity to LSU.

Serious question are any other schools in the SEC bordered by ghettos?

You must have a miserable life. I'm simply warning anyone that parks there so it won't happen to them. It's not like I'm the only "dumbass" who parks there. Been parking there for years with zero issues. Get a life and get a heart.

IF, you've parked there for yrs. w/o a problem....you've just been extremely fortunate, something was just bound to happen sooner or later !! That area is sooooo sketchy I would not leave a Ford Maverick parked there !
People should become more aware of their surroundings...cops are virtual NO SHOWS in that area !

I had been parking over there for years until they broke my glass during the Alabama game last year. I filed a report with the BPD. They know who is doing it, the officer said it's the same set of guys doing it every game north of campus. The officer said they are targeting out of state tags and anyone who has anything valuable in their vehicles north of campus. He said park on campus or south of campus to avoid this. What's makes me mad is you know who is doing it, then arrest them, then they get out again and break into cars over and over. What a judicial system we have.
