The stadium itself looks like a large Tad Gormley.

Had we won it would have been the best thing since sliced bread Bahahahaha

Would you rather the Old Box or the new Box? I’d rather the old, historic, and mystique stadium.

You must never been in SoFi Stadium. I even like LA Coliseum more.

I kept telling my LSU peeps not to be too excited. The weather is cool. Great place for concerts though.

Idk i thought the Mountain View in the background and small intimate nature of it was pretty great. Their cheerleaders were also top notch.

I wouldn't say it was an exciting atmosphere but I agree it's beautiful with the mountains and historic look. I'm glad I got to cross it off of my stadium bucket list.

Rose bowl was fine. The heat before the sun went down was shitty though.

ok, so it's a 98-year old stadium. yeah, that's old.
It's designed like a literal bowl, so guess what? there is a concourse and you go thru a tunnel to get to the seats. Sorry there's no where to piss under your seats in a concrete decked monstrosity. Don't you just pee in your cup anyway?
Yeah, shitty stadium that's hosted FIVE (!!) Super Bowls, Two Olympic Finals, Two World Cup Finals, and the greatest Bowl game in college football every single year, plus, what, five combined national title games (BCS and Playoffs).
Guess when any one of the above will be in Baton Rouge. That's right, you're "Never-Burger" is ready for pickup
Yeah, I'd rather sit in a concrete 5-deck tower and walk up 12 ramps in a disgusting Bayou swamp any ol' day

"Rose bowl was fine. The heat before the sun went down was shitty though."
At 5:30, huh? I mentioned on here that the 12:30 pm start a week earlier, when it was 15 degrees hotter, was a reason fans stayed away (vs. Hawaii).
Mocked, mocked, mocked, jokes, haha, we know what real heat is like... "Have you ever been to the Gulf Coast in August?"
The answer? hellll no, why would I? I've been to the Caribbean closer to the equator, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Costa Rica, Panama, and a helluva lot nicer and hotter / more humid places in August.
We'll suffer our way down to the Gulf Coast in 2024, eschewing a typical Hawaii, Mexico, Belize or Caribbean week to visit Death Valley. Hope you're just as weak-sticked and whiny in 3 years as you all are now.

The stadium and gameday experience, not the bowl game.
Add Wrigley Field to that list.

I preferred it to Lambeau which in my mind is a green steel shell of itself. It’s an Iconic venue that all football fans should see. I thoroughly enjoyed my 5 days in Cali. We sailed out of Marina Del Ray two days while staying and playing in Santa Monica. Drove to Old Town Pasadena in 35 minutes Saturday 11AM was first in line at Roccos . Took the shuttle to Rose Bowl and back. Sat in shade and watched the mountain change colors and the beautiful people walk by and a shitty game. All beautifully orchestrated and better than expected.

It was 116 degrees in Pasadena for the Hawaii game?

It was as expected imo, we weren't expecting an Allegiant/Mercedes Benz Dome. We knew we'd drive from LA towards the mountains and our seats would have an amazing view of the mountains and that's what we enjoyed. Plus tailgating on a golf course was a nice change of pace over the rv lots we're used to.

LSU laid an egg and lost. Had we won, fans would have been on here saying LSU should make that a yearly occurrence.
But we lost, so it sucks.

"It was 116 degrees in Pasadena for the Hawaii game?"
Field thermometer read 112 degrees, add at least 5 degrees for the metal seats in the sun.
So yea. And I'm not quoting the weather at the Pasadena weather station, in the shade. Or in Santa Monica where some wise-guy Tiger said it was only 86 that day. Yeah, it's called beach vs. Inland.
I heard more complaints from Louisiana people in person between 3-5 pm than I care to share... "I hope we're not sitting in the sun...we're going to be in the sun...!? When does it go down?"
call that Sissy Purple pussies

The Rose Bowl is an overrated dump.

I was impressed with the LSU presence there. That may be the largest assembly of LSU fan this whole season.
