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

Nationwide ban on HDTVs.

Solve the post game traffic issues period. Many people leave because they don’t want to fight the traffic issues.

Some are obvious some may not be

1. Need a coach who will emphasize attendance and staying and be willing to call out the fan base.

2. University and TAF need to fully admit it’s a problem and run a campaign about it.

3. Emphasize ritual and tradition. Give moments space to breathe and actually feel important. Don’t blast hip hop and EDM all pre-game, turn it off so the tiger band can play a song, then go back to blasting EDM. The sound system was a mistake. It takes away from what Fighting Tiger football is about. Go back to the cheerleaders leading chants. Encourage it using the video boards.

4. Nostalgia. Stop trying to make Tiger Stadium a night club. People should feel that it’s the same place their dad and grandpa came to watch football. Play old clips, show old teams, embrace the history. If they’re going to call it the “cathedral of college football,” actually show some reverence and respect.

5. Actually give people the chance to cheer and lead the experience. Everything about tiger stadium is too over produced. There’s no breathing room for the crowd. No autonomy to lead chants. The entire experience is corporate and feels like it’s trying to silence the voice of the crowd.

6. This goes hand in hand with #4 but lean into the AWE of tiger stadium instead of using it like a billboard. Yes, you need ads. You need cash. We know. But the field logos took it a step too far.

The Hurricane Said -

Reconfigure seating, add additional clubs, get better cell coverage. The concourses suck, bathrooms and concessions are a joke.

Your Exactly right , the Stadium needs to be Upgraded,

I'll add Chairback seating (Goods ones, Not cheap closeouts you get on the Cheap)

Redo the Concourses

Add some Purple and Gold (TS seems Cold, add some color to certain areas of the Stadium)

Cell Coverage is Bad

Once again the Sound is Weak , Re-Placement of Speakers are Needed... There are several other SEC stadiums that sound a lot better

Bathrooms are always on the list , because nothing is really done

But really, who cares?

Play Neck.

Yall took the "atmosphere" out of TS because the pearl clutchers think we aren't "classy."

I have said this many times that today’s society has an attention deficit. The fans can’t sit in one place for 3 1/2 hours without wanting to do something else.

Free bourbon in the 4th quarter

1) Give away an expensive purse late in the 4th quarter of every game to a female fan who danced the entire game. It's like a house party--more dancing women means a better party.

2) Last hour of the game is happy hour with half off beer.

3) Encourage shaming people who leave early.

3) Improve traffic flow after the game.

They foolishly built the seating to 100,000. There are not 100,000 people who want to sit through a four hour LSU game. Also, it created such traffic problems that folks are afraid to stay.

They should redo the stadium for about 70,000 seated very comfortably and fix the concessions so that it’s equivalent to the food at Walk Ons.
