If everyone boycotted the concessions for a few games it would get their attention

I get eating before you go into the stadium but going without something to drink for 3.5-4 hours while screaming isn’t really feasible.

LSU refuses to improve the model. They get some kind of massive rebate associated with it I am guessing.

Not having dedicated workers also is problematic. It's a bunch of volunteers sweating their butt off for 2% of the till.

Outside the Suites, the whole thing has been terrible for 30 years I been going to games.

We are in 100. It was fine over there. Bathrooms easy. Now Clemson was a dumpster fire. Like 30 minutes to get a water.

And they will stay that way as long as idiots patronize them. Stay away from concessions and they will be forced to change.

I never complain about the concessions bc I never go to the concession stands. I eat and drink before the game. WHY would you want to stand in line for over priced stuff and miss the game. I don't understand it.

LSU athletics has heard all of us ticket buyers bitch about the concessions for a couple decades now.

They don’t care.

We’re in 419 .. concession stand right by there and 420 was easy to get water in my way in and at a little before halftime.

It was cold and the line was negligible.

I will say what impresses, non concession related, in 28 years (30+ if counting under grad and grad school) I’ve never not had toilet paper in the women’s bathroom. Paper towels for drying hands yes .. but I’ve never not hand toilet paper

It’s not that crazy to want to grab a beer and bag of peanuts during the game. And you miss a quarter of the game.

Nope! We alway thought that until we went to Clemson a couple of weeks ago. A cluster

This is accurate. I moved seats to the lower bowl 10 years ago for this exact reason.

Brought my 7yr old daughter to her first game this weekend. Section 533 in the uppers. It was terrible.

People would wait 20 minutes in line to get to the front and have a teenager tell them they couldn’t sell beer, get in another line. 10 minute waits after purchase for pretzels, burgers, and hot dogs. Warm beer and water.

The dippin dots had no wait so we made a few trips to them. Drunk Florida fans were yelling at the poor volunteers behind the concessions. It was bad, the whole game.

I got in at 530...no lines...food was fresh and pretty tasty as I got the catfish not just a grab and geaux! Also got a refill before kickoff!

I go in early to avoid lines and hopping over people to get to my seat...always have...always will! Makes life wayyyy easier+

Do not and I repeat DO NOT ever waste your hard earned or unearned money on anything at the concessions in the stadium. It’s way overpriced and those bozos even know how to ruin something as simple as nachos with just cheese. The hot dogs are despicable as it’s just a cold stale hot dog bun with a wienie that was put in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Woodward knows the concessions has been dog shite for a long time and doesn’t care apparently. So I make sure to fill up good before I go into the stadium and then we will get something after we leave the stadium usually.

Why are kids from Opelousas working the concession stands? Isn’t that over 100 miles away?

The sale of beer is what’s making matters so bad. To each his own, but I can’t understand the overwhelming urge to buy 12 dollar beer. It also makes it frustrating in the stadium because of the constant up and down. People are constantly leaving their seats to go get more alcohol. Last night, I’m sure that I had to move 20-30 times for folks to go to the concession stand. It didn’t even matter if it was a critical play or not, they were going to get their beer. Now, get off my lawn.

Why the hell do yall put up with this? Simply don’t get in line. Get a drink after the game? What’s the problem here?

If I’m flying in and only get to attend one game per season, I’m not missing a snap! Especially for some damn sprites

It’s right down Hwy 190. 60 miles west. It’s about the same distance as the north shore. Not crazy that they’d be there.

Eat before you go in! You can’t wait 3 frickin’ hours to stuff your pie hole?
