I am not happy .... What we have at lsu for tailgating is something great. and All parking in a few years will require some sort of payment!

So they arent going to start charging for other sports as well are they? There is no way in hell I pay to walk to a baseball game.

A few bad tailgaters have ruined it for many


dude, let it go.

There is trash all over campus and no one area is to blame as you would have others to believe.

when 100-150k people congregate in one spot to have a eat and drink all day party that is what happens.
It gets picked up by noon the next day.
Let it go.

Have you heard anything about only issuing trailer permits to 5x8 trailers and nothing larger because only 5x8 and smaller is allowed?

someone just told me that. I'm guessing BS because most of the big time TAF donors have large utility trailers all decked out for tailgating.

I think the rule is 20' in length for a travel trailer as nothing larger would fit into a parking spot.

So I could shell out $400 and get a pass, and a reserved spot before the season and not worry about it.
Or I could spend $40/game or $280/$320 a year depending on the # of home games, and have to worry about buying a pass every Friday/Saturday, and not be guaranteed of where I park.
It is definitely worth getting a parking pass, but the waiting list is very looooooooong. They rarely have any turnover with them.

It isn't them. LSU Law sets up on Highland directly across from the Law Center.


Isn't this the Parade Grounds?

Here is where I see this failing the most. A lot of companies own season tickets that they give out to suppliers as a favor. My old company gave out four tickets every home gave to purchasing guys from the plants. But now that won't go over as easy. You are basically handing a guy a ticket that guarantees he's already $40 in just to go to the game. That's more of a problem than a favor.
