re: What would you change about the Gameday experience at Tiger

Bigger screen on scoreboard. Can't see the replays for crap.

They put ice in the urinals in the bars in Cambodia also. Works great. Also the 7:00 pm kickoffs work great for those of us in asia. It makes a nice Sunday morning game for us as opposed to 2:00 AM. (I am sure no one cares )

Number one issue seems to be No Piped in Music. I agree.

They should bring back your sign, just for ole times sake.

What would you change about the Gameday experience at Tiger
Stadium or pregame?
I will compile and send on to Verge.

NO. Everybody start at the top and send your ideas, complaints, suggestions and demands to Joe Alleva. That's where the rubber meets the road.

My list.........

* Total renovation of inside and outside of stadium. Both are borderline public eyesores.
* New and brighter stadium lights that match on each side.
* Hire an experienced professional turf manager and crew to take care of the field. Return the GOLD border around the field, the large LSU graphics that cover up the entire endzone and the 5 yard alternating light-dark pattern for big TV games.
* NO piped in music and firing of the individual that continues to do it.
* A lot more and larger trash receptacles around the stadium. Maybe the area around the stadium would be cleaner if the AD would give the people enough containers to dispose of their refuse. They DON'T now, so a lot of it goes on the ground.
* Tell CBS and the SEC to F'Off in a "Nice" way. Tell them that LSU will move 1 game to afternoon for TV and that's it. Fine us or whatever else you want, but we'll move one game and that's it. All other games will be a 7pm start.
* House clean the Athletic Department of the dead weight clowns that are responsible for all the things in this thread that we're complaining about. Don't let the door whack them on the arse on the way out. Hire experienced professionals and not ex-LSU football players that need jobs.

LSU football should be about what the fans and alumni want, not what a few egos in the AD that have no respect for tradition want.....

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?

That's what I've been saying ever since I started posting here. Let the SEC fine us or whatever they want to do, just flat out refuse to move the games. Tell em that we'll move 1 game for TV and that's it. All the rest will be at Night. (That includes that Arkansas game after Thanksgiving) Keep it on Friday, but it doesn't start until at least 5pm......

TICKET PRICES.Other than that, absolutely nothing.

There should be piped in music. But ONLY like 2-3 hours before the game when the students are the only damn ones in the stadium. And the piped in music should all be Louisiana type music. Also, for all of the Charlie Daniels "Louisiana Saturday Night" haters, I'm with you. I think they should play Benjy Davis' "Louisiana Saturday Night" instead. I don't sit on a porch with a single shot rifle and a one eyed dog, thank you very much.

The night games has been beaten to death. It's obvious and I hope ESPN changes it when they start doing the SEC games.

The food does indeed suck. I don't know if they think everyone is stuffed from outside or what. It'd be really easy to get some legit LA style food or.... maybe even some effin Raising Cane's!

for all you asking for a better scoreboard screen, catch up on your news

-renovate the guts of the stadium (bathrooms, concourse areas, concessions). it's so dark and dreary, although it gives a nice effect when you actually walk out and get your glimpse of the bright stands and field
-both "louisiana saturday night" and "calling baton rouge" are classics and perfect for the atmosphere. they make us unique and different. if you can't take louisiana saturday night with a grain of salt then ram our car into a wall of spikes soaked with HIV.
-cajun/creole food inside, not just at the tailgates. if they need tips on how to cook the damn stuff, ask almost any of the 92,400 people at the game.
-CBS CAN SUCK ON MIKE'S HAIRY STRIPED BALLS. our tigers play at night. let the northern schools play day games.
-parking
-piped in music before the band arrives to the inside of the stadium. a sniper should be posted and aiming at the audio guy the entire game should he play any more music

Let Mike out of his cage in front of the visitors locker room as they come out on the field.
