They send out all these emails about family friendly tailgating, but they let ghetto arse t-shirt vendors sell shitty t-shirts right outside of the stadium with wonderful sayings on them. How is this allowed?

Gameday is quickly becoming too ghetto for me.

LSU does stop them when they are seen or reported. It's a big point of emphasis for anyone that has anything to do with games and operations. If people see crap like this, report it. I know for a fact that gameday ops deals with unlicensed vendors swiftly.

It can be tough sometimes when there's 150,000 people milling around and some rando's just roll up with a pull wagon and start selling dumb shite. Gotta let somebody know if you see it. It will be handled.

If there wasn't a trashy market for those trashy shirts they would not be there selling them.

But the administration should stop it.

These pop up at every school, but very difficult to stop.

LSU would love nothing more than to keep their brand protected, but the T shirt vendors are like cockroaches. All you can do is report them.

Exactly. If people can report who's doing it and their location, they will get ticketed and removed and (hopefully) banned. If nobody says anything, then it's just dumb luck if a gameday ops person happens to run across it.

Biggest sign that somebody's not supposed to be there is they are selling merchandise with explicit language or graphics or they are selling out of a pull wagon and not a trailer, branded tent or kiosk. Believe me...LSU admin and people in charge of gameday hate this probably more than you do.

They also walk around advertising them by yelling profanities right in from of families and kids. Of course you’re racist if you say anything to them.

Speaks to the trashy culture that we have allowed to develop.

The same reason they don't stop the annoying ticket scalpers that have no tie to LSU at all.

When I used to buy paper tickets, my favorite was a guy who refused to take $20 less dollars for a ticket 10 minutes before game time to stand out in the rain looking for someone to pay full price

Sounds like the solution requires ghetto justice. You need to rip off your shirt and dance around while rhetorically asking, “What’s up, what’s up? What you gonna do bitch?” If he does nothing just keep doing the same thing as you get up in his face and bump up against him.

Just make sure you have some of your podnuhs around to signal that they’ll jump in if he wants to swing.

Works every time .

Yeah. Some dude stopped me on my way to the stadium with a rolling bag full of T-shirts - "I got some real fly game day apparel here, check it out, check it out."

It is ridiculous that LSU has allowed these “vendors” to stand in the middle of the street on victory hill yelling “fukk around and find out” as people walk to the game with children.

No way rheee guys are even licensed to sell those shirts much less the vulgarity and trashiness of it.
