The third quarter march to the exits is one of the greatest traditions in all of college football.

I love our stadium, but you can't deny our stadium empties more than most. If we're up by 20 late in the 3rd, the party moves outside. In the case of Miss St last season, people were filing for the exits as they were up 31-10 in the 3rd...

I want people to stay the whole game, especially when we beat Auburn's arse this year. All their fans stayed for that 41-7 mauling; I want us to do the same to them.

I've seen people leave midway through the first quarter. I've seen people leave with five minutes left in a nailbiter with everything on the line. LSU ticketholders-I won't call them 'fans'-are a mysterey to me.

Third quarter march means we are kicking arse. I'll take it.

I used to wish there was more seating, so that the place would be more intimidating. Now I wish they wouldn't have done it. Losing the view on one endzone took away from the atmosphere, and there are more empty seats at times. At least there is still the view of downtown and the river. I doubt, given the empty seats except for the biggest games, we have to worry about that view being lost.

I didn't make it to either of those games this last year. I suspect sarcasm since I can't imagine the stadium half empty for those. Don't make me you at Sonic, bro.

Funny how the haters say Miles has taken the fun out of it. but this past season, the 2 close low scoring games, had the most fans til the final whistle. Funny how that works, yet they can't wait to get out when we are blowing a team out.

I stayed the whole New Mexico game. Guess that makes me a sadist.

Stadiums not being full or people filing out all through the game is a problem all over the country and price hikes and the programs catering more to the 'corporate' fan are to blame. Nobody is to blame for this than LSU itself.

Why is this the more recent trend? Or have I just been too drunk in my undergrad days and never noticed it.
