Was traffic last night the worst ever?

Haven't seen a post, so I was curious. I normally ride the Alumni Association shuttle from the airplane to Lod Cook after the game to help my elderly neighbors to get back to the hotel.
Last night, the traffic from there past the Union and East/West Laville to the rec center never moved. Since my neighbors weren't able to go to the game, I just walked it and I beat the bus... in fact everyone got off at the Union and just walked. I never saw a car move the entire walk.
I've never seen it that bad.

Not sure who came up with LSU contraflow, but they should be fired. How is Highland not a 2 lane continuous flow all the way out to Bluebonnet? Instead, it's 1 lane, and they allow cross traffic both ways, at different times at Lee drive, which stops the flow of outbound traffic from campus....why!?!? Flow everything out and make people use backroads or wait to come back towards campus.

That would do it.

Coming in around 12:30 worst in awhile.
Left with a minute to go and got home easily.

Getting out of the Union Garage up to I-10 is horrific!!

Had the same experience goin from the law lot past the UREC to Sstanford to get on at Acadian Thruway. I sat forever. It finally started moving steady but it was a crawl all the way to Perkins basically.

Idiots have had decades to come up with a flow/contraflow plan and figure out a way to enforce it but they can’t.

I'm a big supporter of police, but BRPD AND THE EAST BATON ROUGE, PARISH SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOB.

Parked in the Hayfield and took River Rd to Brightside to Nicholson. Nicholson was two lanes all the way to Bluebonnet. Took me an hour to make that trip. Not any worse than it’s been in the past, but I have have heard from others that the clusterfrick getting into and out of central campus yesterday was the worst they’ve ever seen

I stayed whole game and was home in Zachary in less than an hour. I had about a 25 min walk to my car but I can handle that.

I parked there one time about 10 years ago. Learned my lesson. Never again.

Central campus is really bad for Bama game. Several yrs ago I was late getting to the pregame and had to park over behind the dorms and the Rec Ctr. Took me 3 hrs to get off campus. I lesrned my lesson to get there on time.

They do this because there are people who live (mainly) south or north of Highland who can’t get home otherwise and they got a lot of complaints about that.
They got none for me, I either walk to the stadium or stay home on game day.

102,000 people in the stands
Then you have all the extra people for gameday - workers, photographers, hangers-on on the field.
Then you have the extra tailgaters, and people working the campus.
You're probably talking about 200,000 people trying to leave campus at the same time.
The problem is there's no valid off campus park and ride shuttle system. You should be able to leave the game, hop on one of those amusement park golf cart trolley things, and bring you to a parking lot off campus, or shuttle bus to a parking lot off campus. Now where that magical place would be, I have no idea.

I don't disagree with this, it would be a great idea, but it still doesn't mean LSU shouldn't have 3 to 4 main roads that don't stop, or have any cross traffic for 2 miles outside of campus. And this shouldn't be that hard to control imo.
And for the people that live close to campus, let's just say you live by Aloyisus, would it be that big of a deal to drive to Bluebonnet or Siegen via Highland/Burbank and come back down Perkins?

It was bad in every large stadium throughout the country. We’re no different. No worse.
Posted on 11/8/26 at 5:04 pm to Flablete
BRPD is rude and incompetent as usual. I did see one cop get MF’d like a dog at N. Stadium and Nicholson for yelling at a guy crossing the street. The guy dared the cop to do anything and the cop just walked away. It was epic.
Posted on 11/8/26 at 5:06 pm to 18handicap
That is why people start leaving in the 3 rd quarter.....it is horrific for most game goers!
Posted on 11/8/26 at 5:08 pm to Flablete
Been that way for over 25 years
Cops are fat worthless POS especially in BR.
