This will never happen due to the stadium’s location next to the MS River.
From an aerial view you can see that no traffic can go W, NW, SW for any meaningful distance. That severely limits options of traffic flow.

Of quartz you do. The BOD should add this to their slate of meeting topics.

Between a rock and a hard place. I'm glad we're talking about these kitchen countertop issues.

Well it is bad and a lot worse since they increased the stadium size years ago.
But the enjoyment is better at the games than on TV for me…
Just have to accept the fact that you stay until the traffic dies.
Last night was actually not that bad for me. Got to my car at 10. I stayed until after the Alma mater. Left the parking lot at 10:20. Live on the West Bank. Was home for 11:00.

Saw people listing tickets for $350 for Florida
Imagine paying $350 to fight traffic, wait 15 minutes for concessions, and pay $12 a beer

Give the Nola area people a train in and out for the game. That's a lot of cars off the road right there. I would gladly ride it.

One of the worst parts about this problem is that there are so many drunk drivers on the road after home games. These people go to work and pay taxes just like me and you, and the drunk drivers deserve to get home in a reasonable manner without having to stress anymore than they already are
Wait.... so are you ok with drunk drives or are you not???
Either way, traffic wasn't an issue. Couch, recliner, bar, fridge, concessions, and even pet friendly.... no place like it.

People are starting to, unfortunately.
Experience at the games needs to continue improving across the board or more people will choose to watch games on their 85” HD tvs at home. It’s a problem across all major sports leagues.

We left the game with 1 minute left in the 4th quarter and traffic was not bad at all. Made it home before BK press conference started.

The elimination of free parking which was also "free tailgating" is making quick work of that.
The old Back 9 used to be full of people having a good time. This past weekend it was EMPTY, and the dumbasses decided to gravel it about 3 feet high for whatever reason.

Drainage.
We need fewer seats but all chairbacks, better parking/traffic control, and better concessions.
These modern stadiums are a total experience outside of football. I don't care about that shite because I go whistle to whistle and I'm there for football only, but it will help with others that aren't as die hard.

Hi Neil. This was your first home game I take it? Get used to it.

They changed some of the parking pass routes. I've gone the same way for decades and now I can't use that route. No clear warning about it either.
I saw the contraflow maps everywhere on the Internet. Not sure what else you were looking for

There you go, bringing up geography and engineering issues. Stop resorting to facts.

Traffic down Burbank was way worse. going down to one lane at gourier is a terrible plan
Yes it was. And we waited until the game was over before leaving. How was Nicholson?

Every year some new traffic "engineer" comes up with a new traffic plan that has been tried already 10 times - this week, the only way to Dalrymple if you parked on the U-High side of the parade grounds was via East Campus with no cop at the corner of East Campus and Dalrymple - a frickin nightmare

One thing I really liked about Gainesville was the shuttle system. They use a mall parking lot a few miles from campus and it's like $10 round trip.
Baton Rouge/LSU could easily do something like this using the Mall of LA parking lot or Jimmy Swaggart's lots.
