Pregame is great if you have kids. Plenty of snacks and ice cream for the little ones. Food is boring and plain for Louisiana. The game environment is kind of boring unless you bring in a crowd that is fun. Great to experience a couple of times, but the overall environment could be better.

Been a few times, it's the opposite of the stands. You're swapping the rough and rowdy crowd that makes the environment infamous for wine sippers in pleated khakis and Peter Millar polos golf clapping on 3rd and short.

Just makes for a really awkward experience if you're used to being irate and yelling/screaming on 3rd downs and all that since no one in that whole suite area does anything of the sort.

I'm not rich but my friends are and I've been in those suites. The food and drinks are everything that it's cracked up to be but you can't stand up and yell STTDB

I dunno-I’d rather have regular seats. I felt apart from the cheers, the camaraderie, etc. I’m sure I’ll be downvoted because they’re suites, but it wasn’t all that in my humble opinion.


I’ve been blessed enough to have the opportunity to sit in a suite one time when I was a kid bc we were invited by someone.

I agree with this take though. The experience was fine but give me a seat in the regular seats… I feel more connected with the other fans and the team in general (I know might sound dumb)… I just love that experience and atmosphere more. Feels more electric…

Air conditioning, couches TV’s with the option to watch it outside or step in everything’s catered and all the alcohol you can drink. Two elevators that will take you up to the tiger suites and there is row to row suits with some companies having two or three suites people just go from suitet to suitet, partying and talking.

For the Grambling game and smaller ones like that it is great. Not gonna be an intense game, so enjoy the free drinks, food and easy bathroom access. But… I wouldn’t want to be there for say a night game against Auburn. Much better to actually be a part of the atmosphere there.

However, there is more leg room which is nice in the suites.

he's not just trying to be nice. He wants her there to get her liquored up and see where it goes.

Stadium club here. Laughing at the responses saying they’d rather sit in the bleachers all the time than up in premium seating

I would. Just a matter of preference. No real “right” answer.

definitely not like being in the stands. it's almost awkward to really be into the game IMO

that said, win or lose you can have all the whiskey or wine that you can handle

Atmosphere isn’t as good as the lower bowl, but on a crap opponent or a very hot day give me the suite. Beer used to factor into the decision, but now that you can get a beer in the stadium it’s a non factor.

You wont be sweating while watching the game. I always feel like the smaller games are better to be in the suite. All you can eat food and all you can drink. You do have to behave a bit but its a good time.

Agreed.


I like being down in the stands with the fun.


I’ll have drinks later.

I go to a couple games in the suites on the east side each year. Pros are you are out of the weather, AC if you want, free food, free drinks, and bathrooms are not crowded and really clean. The only downfall is you are going to find alot of the people in the suites are there for the social aspect and roam from suite to suite visiting. I usually pick a seat on the front row and enjoy the game. I dont do much visiting.
