I always tend to leave a game early so I can get to my car and listen to it until I can get back to a house or bar to catch the snaps.

I don't get into chest bumping contests with who stays the longest. My fundamental objective is to not miss a snap, whether in stadium, tube, or radio. That said, I left right at half time and caught the 2nd half kickoff from a tailgate and finished there. Boo me, I'm a bad fan.

The frat section emptied really early and was the most obvious part in the stadium.

I stay to the end of every game because I'm more interested in the game itself than the party that surrounds it. However, I know that's not the case for everyone who comes to games so I don't get all butthurt about it.

Exactly. I wanna get completely drunk and don't want to fight crowds and traffic to do so. So, I balance it out and do my best to support the team until it's pretty much decided then I go beat up on my liver with a good seat at the bar or tailgate.

I like to walk down early and catch the last few minutes right behind the opposing teams bench.

I thought the would have more of an effect on most of the East side. But it looked like most people wanted to hang around to enjoy the win. I didn't see many people leave until the 4th quarter.

I guess it wasn't past their bedtime; so, they decided to hang around.

Buy some broke dick. Then you won't feel so insecure about it. May meet a nice girl there, marry her, spit out kids, and maybe, just maybe, you'll have real things to worry and annoyed about.

This is what I do.

Unless LSU is losing, then I'd stay no matter what. Gotta hope for another Troy game.

Who cares when they left? If LSU goes up big, pulls in the reigns, and decides to run out the clock then guess what: The team is willfully not playing to its full potential. If the team is ok with doing that then we should be ok with fans not playing up to their full potential.

That's an interesting way to describe it.

I have Never drank DURING an LSU game, so I don't understand puting getting F'd up ahead of cheering for the greatest team in the world, but as they say, admitting you have a problem is the first step!

Is there ever a time where we don't complain about our fans. The stands weren't full at the start of the game and they weren't full at the end. Who cares? We still sounded loud and awesome on TV.

True. That's why I tailgate after the game for about 2 hours. Then leaving campus is easy.

"the majority of people who left early did so early in the 4th quarter."

This.

some left at times during the third, but there was a bigger exodus at points in the early-mid 4th.

I was at the game until the end, and it's Mr. Butthole to you.
