The internet was moving slowly, and it was taking them like 30 seconds to scan each ticket with the handheld devices. I honestly thought I was going to end up missing the kickoff. Fix this crap, LSU

That wouldn’t have fixed anything.

It was the LSU staff’s devices struggling with the internet; not my phone

The entrance for Gates 8-10 around 5:45. It was a shitshow.

We had the same issue. Same gate. Wasn't our device as we had our tickets in Google wallet ready to go. It was the ticket attendants handheld scanner. Hed scan the ticket and tit would take a bit for it to register that the scan worked. Thats slow process can back up the lines quick.

Yep. That’s exactly what happened.

We go in about an hour before the game starts. Basically just walk right in.

Always has if you are an ATT customer. This past off season LSU put a huge pile of money on fixing the internet and it worked for me great. I could actually use ESPN and TD live during the game!

It didn’t matter. I had s hand held ticket snd they couldn’t scan it. It was their devices .
Plus the lines were so long and not moving. So it didn’t matter what median you had you were stuck in the long line.

I’d hope so, they spent $45 million on getting better service in there

Two ideas:

1) have Elon Musk add free Starlink to ALL of LSU’s campus….as part of the Space Port deal

2) have LSU to sign a deal with T-Mobile and have them upgrade the internet for naming rights deal “T-Mobile Tiger Stadium

AT&T spent that $45 million, not LSU.

TAF had AT&T build a new DAS system this year and the service is vastly superior and fast this season. It wasn't the problem with the network. I would suggest finding another gate for entry. If you are on the east sideline, go to Gates 11, 12 or 14. It took me 1 minute to get in at 5:45 p.m. There is always a bottle neck at Gates 8, 9 & 10.

Geez. I have an Android Pixel phone (AT&T) and sit in section 213 north endzone. I was able to listen to the radio broadcast while watching highlights of other games. I think some people have a chronic complaining issue. Connectivity is MUCH improved. I'd be lucky to send a text message during the game in the past.

However. Connectivity on campus is not improved, especially where there are crowds of people. I think the main improvements are in the stadium. I experience slowness where the team steps off the bus when everyone was there.

That's not that new, is it? I don't find this season any worse than last for me. Also Verizon.
