re: Razorback Fans take on the trip to Tiger Stadium

Just got back home from Baton Rouge.

My experience was great. Met some LSU students at a bar downtown and ended up tailgating with LSU fans all day. We heard Tiger bait several times, but if you can't take that, you probably have issues yourself. Most of the harassment came from children. Most of the adults seemed eager to talk football or baseball.

The pregame traditions were amazing, everything from the band marching down the street, to parking Mike next to where the Hogs ran out. Mike's habitat is a sight to see as well. I was disappointed that Alex Box stadium and the Maravich Assembly Center were off limits. I really wanted to check those out.

There was nothing worth complaining about as far as the stadium was concerned. It was waaaaay better than War Memorial. No tin ceilings, plenty of room to move about, easy access to restrooms with short lines, you can order something other than a hot dog and a bottled coke, and it didn't smell like piss. The dorms were there for a reason when the stadium was built and I think it adds to the character and history. I agree they should do something about the windows.

Overall, I loved the experience. I made some new friends and I plan on going back.
