re: How to get LSU fans to stay a whole game and restore Tiger Stadium to Death Valley?

Cannons and fireworks=no more Mike

I get so tired of hearing that the vet doesn't allow Mike to be brought to the stadium - that's it's not good him, too stressful, inhumane, etc. Who gives a shite what the vet thinks? It shouldn't be his decision. Mike is arguably the most coddled animal in the history of humanity. Why not bring him back but give rid of the ridiculous fireworks? What are seven trips across the street going to do to him? He's a fricking Siberian Bengal tiger.

After all, domesticated animals like to go places. How many of you have a dog who gets excited when it's time for a ride in the car?

First, reduce the seating capacity by improving the quality of our seats. Get rid of benches and have individual chairs that are comfortable. Then improve the stadium experience by playing the traditional songs by the Golden Band from Tigerland instead of the thumping and screeching noise being piped in so loud it’s absolutely annoying. Also, improve the concessions quality and service. Expand restroom capacity. And of course, have a team that is playing for LSU rather at LSU.

Common throughout college football. Watch a home UGA game that isnt verse alabama. Plays empities in the second half, ole miss couldnt fill up their tiny stadium against washington state

Winning with swag unfortunately. look at 2019. LSU manhandled a lot of teams and the stadium was electric. Auburn and Florida were just great games. It’s when lsu has dawg and contention that the crowd seems to stay longer. I grew up in the 70’s/80’s going to games when we were ok, but not contenders and that’s when the stadium was wild. But we hadn’t won anything in a while. The fans had a hunger, desperation. We have become complacent unless it’s bama at night. But when we’re in contention and have some swag it stays filled longer. I’m a defensive fan, but big offensive games definitely keeps people in their seats. Likely why bama has a big crowd. They dominate and have swag.

I recall playing below average teams with Miles and it was boring in there. Exhausting almost and it’s sad to say that. Because we’ve lost that desperation we need excitement to keep the stadium filled.

I do think the music sucks arse. Not sure if that plays a part I people leaving. But the band should be playing far more than they do. Just my opinion as someone who’s gone to games since 76.

This won’t likely be popular, and LSU wouldn’t try it, but tack on a $0.50-1.00 charge for each game ticket and apply it to a $50-100K “Tiger Takeaway” raffle for each game that would be drawn at the 2:00 timeout in the 4th. Must be present to win. I would think that would provide some incentive to stay.

Maybe do what some schools do to get students to stay and that is offer them reward points for staying the whole game. Give people points towards concessions, tiger gear or future tickets if they stay?

WIN!

Literally just fix the traffic

Get rid of the DJ Music and more game day band!

Was told by someone high up in the administration that they reason they play so much piped in music is because they students keep trying to STTDB and they are beyond sick of it.
