He can bring the Bama OL. We'll do a roommate switch.

The "Enslinger" (Danielson) Offense would look like day and night when operating behind 5 competent OL's that know their Reads and Assignments! Ours don't........

It was just the way it worked out. We got there midmorning and got parked in the free, golf course parking across from the stadium (That's another thing that was mindboggling. I'm still amazed that there's free parking available for LSU football games). After that, we concentrated on finding tickets. It took us about an hour and a half to find good tickets, and by then we were starving. As we walked along we saw the Tony Chachere's trailer and thought it was a food truck, but they were giving out fried catfish samples. We were the only people around at the time and we stood around and talked with the Tony Chachere's chef for a bit then noticed the Wendy's over in the corner of the Market. We had a long day in front of us so we decided to get a burger. When we walked around the tailgate area we were not looking for or expecting anyone to invite us to eat although we wouldn't have turned it down.

Thank you, Frankie, but truth be told, LSU is a rent-a-win for Sabama. I feel bad for you guys having to watch your team play against LSU and that infamous Ensminger Offense.

I couldn't have come without tickets it if the wife had wanted to attend. Because it was just me and my buddy, we were willing to take our chances and if we didn't find tickets, take in the atmosphere (a show in itself) and then head to a sports bar, but I've found that you usually get better tickets and end up paying less for them when you scalp rather than buying from outlets like StubHub. Lower level tickets were running about $600 on StubHub, and we ended up paying $450.
