I’m not seeing enough hot women in the stands. If the hot women go the rest will follow.

LSU priced the rabid fan out. Now it’s mostly rich daddy boys with pink polos that show up to the games take a tik tok and Instagram photo and leave.
Lots of affordable ticket plans are available and you can make payments

The taxes and fees basically double the ticket prices…it’s insanity
That being said I bought two in the SW endzone

Game attendance everywhere is done. it’s more expensive, every game is on TV now, everyone has a 65-75 inch or better TV, people would rather watch at home with friends etc.
It’s sad but that’s just the damn truth, no college fans are as passionate as they used to be. Bama fans haven’t even murdered anyone in years

it’s ok we doubled your ticket prices, installed paid tailgates all over campus and completely fricked the parking situation but it’s ok because you can pay over time and you can even buy a beer in the stadium if you wait in line for 45 minutes. This isn’t an LSU problem it’s a greed problem with all professional sports and unfortunately LSU was one of the first to go all in on reducing the experience for the common fan in favor of making as much money as possible. Capitalism at it’s finest but it has its cost and that cost is the game day experience.

Well I have driven down twice from Tennessee this year and both were losses. So I am keeping my arse away from watching the games in person the rest of the year!

11 AM game I was probably one of them. I’ll never go to a game that early but I’ll be there tomorrow. GEAUX TIGERS!!

People act like LSU is the only program dealing with this but pretty much every other major program has the same issues and still packs the stadium, 100k plus. Mannequin Kelly does nothing to inspire the fan base and we are lame as shite now.

Alabama 2018 was bigger and wilder. But Nobody want's to talk about how great the Gameday atmosphere and stadium were b/c we sucked donkey dicks in the game. But that first 3 & Out by Bama was insane in TS.

spoiled fanbase. Title or bust

You don't bite the hand that feeds you,
City of Baton Rouge/EBR Parish/State of Louisiana dysfunctional traffic management doesn't help the situation either..........

The hard core portion of the fan base is getting old. The young whipper snappers are spoiled by expectations.
15 years ago, I would be staying in NOLA tonight, pissing away money at the black Jack table, then waking up hungover and jumping in a limo with 2 hookers, an 8 ball or 2, and a handful of degenerate buddies. Contrast that with today, where I’m inclined to close at least 4 deals before 2:00, then turn on some pregame while sitting my old arse on the couch. I will start pacing the floor at some point in the 2nd quarter. I will have Mel McDaniel at the ready as well as Callin Baton Rouge.

Tv access has driven the decline in sports.. it’s simple you don’t have to attend anymore with virtually every game televised on a format.
I enjoy the atmosphere, but know tons of people that would rather sit on the couch and do things for the rest of the day before kickoff. Like it or not, it’s an all day thing.

Because during the 4 hours in the stadium 3 hours is spent waiting for the commercial clock to tick down.

Building a championship program isn't cheap.
Fans complain about the cost of a championship program then complain if we don't win enough.
Plenty of tailgating spots are still free. The old back 9 for one. I see lots of tailgates set up all over the campus.
Parking is not free for most of the campus unless you want to walk.
Traffic is horrible, no doubt. I plan to never be in a hurry after the game. We go back to the tailgate and watch football games while the traffic clears.
Concessions suck, along with the bathrooms. We plan not to have to eat in the stadium. I just get me a Coke to mix with my bourbon and enjoy the game.
If you want to have fun at a LSU game, you can with proper planning and patience.
If you want to complain about everything and want to find negatives you certainly can do that also
