What amazes me is how many of y’all would never have made it prior to 2000. The whole Game Day experience at LSU has NOTHING TO DO WITH CONCESSIONS IN TS. What a bunch of Whimps.

Here’s the deal though. The old crew in Tiger Stadium are perfectly fine with everything because that’s how it used to be.


What a moronic take as it relates to concessions.

You mean back when Boy Scouts, local schools, and charitable groups ran the concession stands? The period during which most people here (myself included) say it was actually better than Aramark?

Lots of people do bring their families to games. Good concessions are a vital part of keeping everyone in your family happy with the overall experience.




If only we had tailgate parties

Hot take: The only way to get concessions to change is you don’t go to the games until LSU does something about it. Your best vote is your hard earned dollar that LSU cares deeply about, especially when it’s gone

Yeah but it was a cake walk game on a cold night. With that why would administration even stop to think nobody is here because concessions are poor?

Eat at the house before you leave for the game.
Stop and get fast food on the way to the stadium.
Eat at the tailgate.
Bring a bag of peanuts to the game.

If I were the LSU AD, I'd sell peanuts, popcorn, cokes and water. That's it.

Yell loud and put your focus on the Tigers for 3 hours, not on stuffing your face.......

There really is no excuse to have bad concessions if you truly understand what you’re up against. People who enjoy food and beverages will stay home and watch the game on their 70’ Samsung instead.
Very important those are run well.

Very surprising to still hear these thing after Woody said they were addressed.
Possibly offseason he will get another crack at it.

The concessions in the south endzone didn’t have jalapeños for the nachos. Had a cold hotdog. Ate 2 bites and threw away. Disgusting


It's not that hard. With the food around here. The local restaurants and food trucks, especially with mobile ordering a huge thing now. Get rid of Aramark. Rent out concession spaces to restaurants and food trucks. You can still have a few that sell the simple shite, for drinks, just have Coca Cola bring in some vending machines that can vend 32 Oz bottles. How awesome would it be if you could order a calzone from Lit pizza on your phone, walk over there to get it. Pick it up right when you get there and swipe your card for a 32 Oz bottle of coke on the way back to your seat. Even more awesome if these places have runners that will bring your food to you at your seat. That'll get somebody a 5$ tip for sure.

And you'd be a damn fool (someone in a position to cater to the public who only thinks about themselves) who wouldn't have that job for very long.

It's pretty funny how so many people think they are "hardcore" fans and somehow take suffering through shitty concession service and other gameday issues as a badge of honor. Then they complain when people don't come to games or leave early because of the overall issues with the total experience. Improve the overall experience and people will show up and stay. Don't and they won't. You have to keep up with the times and provide people what they want or else face the results with people staying home and watching on tv.
