I would take improved traffic over the price of a ticket or free stuff. The traffic issue is problem No. 1 with everyone.

How do some of you even enjoy going to home games if you are so preoccupied by people leaving early?

This might end up being a very dumb question so fire away: Could LSU ever do something where fans that stay until the end of the game earn a chance to be one of 500 seats to be refunded for their ticket?


Seriously, its very simple.

First thing, is LSU has spent Mega Millions on Stadium renovations (mainly for more seating and Suite boxes). But with all that money, nothing else was updated, i.e New concession stands, New bathrooms with AC, GET RID OF CONTRA FLOW...Bring back the REFILL COKE...

Beat the clock.. Beer prices drop by $2 every quarter.

$8 in the 1st, $6 in the 2nd and $4 in the 3rd.

No beer sales in the 4th.

You are definitely a Democrat or big spending GOP voter.

no such thing as a dumb question

Holy shite, that's dumb

To the OP - It can't be that difficult to improve the traffic issue. Call in some experts. The buses are a must.

The traffic issue isn't so bad if you don't park in a place where you know you will be stuck in traffic. There are routes away from the stadium that don't have awful traffic

Should movie theaters pay patrons to stay until all the credits have rolled off the screen?

Supply a quality product and fans will stay longer.

Also, alleviate the traffic problem!

Why is it such a big deal that fans have to stay and watch till the very end? I can tell you that sitting in traffic for hours after watching football for almost 4 hours is horrible. Instead of spending money on all the crap that goes on inside of TS, LSU should spend money on the traffic that happens after the games. All the commercials during a game is rediculous.

A few years ago, we would tailgate for every game in touchdown village. Besides the mess that people leave at your spot for you to clean up, LSU is effectively pricing out the everyday person. Only a couple seasons ago, you could get good tailgating spots for free by showing up early. Now, it's all $40 paid or parking pass lots. Or you can park pretty far away for free. I personally don't mind, but the people I go to the game with would rather stay at home, cook, and drink rather than spend the money and effort to get out there. Losing a 5 hour buzz while listening to the hits of Casablanca at halftime does the trick also.
