Looking for advice

Hello , I’m looking for some help and hospitality from fellow college football fans. I am a school counselor and football coach in Eastern Washington ( far from Seattle geography and many other ways as well ??). Think farm lands and open spaces with hunting and fishing… my bucket list included a trip to watch an SEC game in person and see first hand the fun and excitement. My daughter and son in law got stationed at an Air Force base in Louisiana, and have an uncle that played football at LSU in the early 60’s, and had access to season tickets that have been in the family for over 70 years so LSU vs bama seemed like a no brainer. I’m so excited to head down there next week but only have a few days to take it all in. The kids are driving out for the game and my wife and I are flying in Wednesday to New Orleans and headed to Baton Rouge Friday mid day.
What are must see and do things for us ? Any especially fun tailgating places to go through ?
Thanks for any help you have and we can’t wait for this experience

Definitely go see mike’s cage and watch the tiger walk down victory hill. Other than that walk around and socialize. Should meet lot’s of great people. Good luck. Geaux Tigers

Where Washington gear. You will be greated and invited to every tailgate you walk by.

You picked a hell of a game to be your first experience with SEC football.
The link posted above is a good start.
When in New Orleans, grab dinner at Jacques Imo's.

Wear a shirt identifying your home state/ school of choice. Usually a sure way to get invited in random tailgates.

See Mike the Tiger. The Tiger Walk for sure. Bounce around to as many tailgaters as you can and enjoy the taste and smells of drinks and Cajun food. I also recommend Chimes for sure. Enjoy.

LSU fans love to show off their cooking and are happy to share with folks who come on a bucket list trip. Avoid the parade grounds - that’s the frats - go and stop at the tailgates and introduce yourself and I promise you will be offered plenty of food and drink.
Make sure you watch the band and the team march down the hill, visit Mike the Tiger and get in line for the stadium 1 hr prior to kick off. It will be a long line and you want to make sure you see all of the pregame festivities. Calling Baton Rouge, and the band’s pregame on the field.
You have never seen anything like what you’re about to witness! Your ears will be ringing for days after! Enjoy!

You picked the biggest game at LSU since 2019. I hope you and your family have a great time.

Is your wife holding a rod wrapped in foil out in the field for you to post this?
All seriousness, it’s LSU/Bama at night in Death Valley. You’ll never forget it.
