Or just alter it like South Carolinas so that students get credit when there is 5 minutes left in the game not when you first walk in.



That's even better

Nailed it. Take tickets away and watch and see what happens.

LSU is unique, we don't want to be like the other programs.

The absolute worst thing is when the PA guy says "Alright Tiger fans, let's join the LSU cheerleaders in an L-S-U-Tigers cheer!"

That shite sucks. We don't need to be spoon fed a gay cheer like that. Auburn, Tennessee, Florida, etc. do that, and it's embarrassing that we've started doing the same lame thing.

When I was a student it was $1 to go thw games. Maybe start charging students a higher ticket price while lowering tuition the same amount.

Maybe they will appreciate it.

Stadium expansion doesn't explain why there's 100K people in the stands during the 1st quarter and half of them leave by the 3rd quarter. If expansion was why the crowd was thinned out, then the crowd would be looking thin at kickoff too.


He was talking about reducing the student ticket allotment. My point is that for all but 1-2 games a year there are plenty of tickets to go around. We've yet to have a reported crowd of 100,000 this year make the stadium look full.

People leaving early isn't just on the students. It's just unfortunate that the students aren't staying too since they are the best generator of crowd noise.

Sorry buddy I never had to chase it I could just get it. And getting drunk is no excuse for leaving a game. But I guess your generation is just weak like that.

Can we start bashing the older fans when they leave a middle section 1/4 empty at kickoff?

I would say the majority of the fans in the stadium treat LSU games like a social event. To some degree that's what it is.


To exactly what degree do you think an LSU game isn't a social event?

We are tying. LSU must have some stupid PR director who thinks that piped in music is cool at football games.

What makes college football program GREAT is tradition. That is something that LSU has, and should be proudly showing. The Golden Band from Tigerland is the best band in the SEC. Let them freakin play.

And yall can shite on the student section now, but come Saturday night that bitch will be rockin.

e problem is that the stands are thinned out throughout the stadium now. The expansion lead to a surplus of unused tickets for most games.


So what exactly does this have to do with the student section?

There needs to be some incentive to correct this trend

Well, a person validates each ticket on the way into the stadium, why not have them scanned on the way out? Not just students either --- leave early on a consistent basis, your tickets are made available to someone who really wants them.

Pay for the additional costs (the people actually scanning the tickets) with the increased concession sales from 40,000 people being there for an extra hour.

They aren't free for students. Its about a $100 for the whole season. To a broke college student, that can be a lot of money.

How many rounds would that buy at Fred's (assuming you tip the bartender)?

Its not just the students its nearly 3/4's of the fans in the stands. Midway 3rd quarter the damn stadium is 1/4 full. Totally pathetic. The place doesn't deserve the title Death Valley anymore. More like Deserted Valley
