YEA, I like those ideas. Bathrooms definitely pathetic, from the 1940's or something. Food is not even as good a selection as at a church carnival. Terrible food, terribly pitifully small selection of food. YEA, chairbacks across the entire stadium (thought we were promised that when they initiated the "tradition" fund ??). Much, much room for improvement in the old girl. We do not need bigger, we need better. We deserve better than what we have put up with all these years. Attendance has been good we are spending our money in increasing amounts, with nothing to show for it. Let's demand better!!

Stop the rock music

They could do a better job posting scores of other games

I know there's not much control but day games blow.

It's been a long time since I've been in LA let alone a football game

What happened to the Tiger Rag? Thats a real LSU song and not Neck

Toones - What is that?

Have students show up at the game like they really cared who won and not just killing 2 1/2 hours

I don't know what Verge could do about it but I really wish we, as fans, would "tiger bait" the opposing team when they come out of the tunnel instead of booing. Everybody in the world boos, nothing special there. I think it would be unique and intimidating if the entire crowd was chanting "tiger bait."

lots of good suggestions here, but the simplest and one that could be fixed with no cost what-so-ever, and still make the biggest impact to keeping the game day traditions is:

NO PIPED-IN FRIGGIN' MUSIC!!!


I HATE IT!

3) keep the Arky game on Saturday instead of this Friday after Thanksgiving stuff.


I like the Ark game on Friday after T-giving! It is THE major game that day and that equates to good recruiting. Do wish it was at night, though.

Let me stand up and yell for my team when appropriate without being tattled on by someone and removed from the grounds.

-ALL games should have a 7:00PM kick off
-Smoke-free environment should be kept
-NO MORE piped in music except Calling Baton Rouge and LA Sat Night
-Better field turf management (some times looks like our field would be better for beach volley ball than football)
-Allow the sale of at least beer in the stadium if not the hard stuff

And just for shits a giggles, I would LOVE to see LSU tell the next network that wants a 2:30 kick off to frick OFF and hold kick off at 7:00PM anyway. I think that would be damn funny! Any precedent to this?

I'm going to echo most and say...

Better non-conference opponents
No Allstate net
Better concessions
Cleaner restrooms
No piped-in music after kickoff---if Alleva wants to create a more intense environment with the music, then have the band play songs like Hell's Bells and not crap like Don't Stop Believing and Living on a Prayer, which are ok songs but do not belong in Tiger Stadium. You have one of the best bands in the country, so use them.

Also, one tradition that I would like to see begin is to get the entire stadium involved in singing the alma mater with the team after the game. I think it's really cool how Florida does there's at the end of the third quarter. And besides, maybe this would encourage people to stick around til the end of the game.

That's not their alma mater. It's "We are the boys from ole Florida."
