Same. I'll be in BR to see my son (frosh at LSU). We will be chilling in my best friends pool and periodically checking in on the Les Miles shite show.

When/if fans don't show up, it'll turn into an "us vs them" shitshow with the players.

They'll take to Twitter and post bullshite tweets saying shite like "you're either with us or you're against us".

It's never ending.

The people talking about it as a boycotting thing are kind of blowhards. But yes people will lose interest with an inferior product on the field. LSU has a very loyal fanbase, so people will still turn out. Just less people will.

I am and will always be loyal to LSu and the team. If there is a better to way to voice my displeasure with the head coach and the administration other than keeping my pocketbook at home, let me know.

As bad as things are, I'm feeling pretty good. I got transferred to my company's location in Alabama. Not only will my seat in tiger stadium be empty, but I'll get to watch real championship football. Roll tide.

It might be effective to show up Saturday and then walk the frick out on the kickoff. Leave the place empty.

Depends how bad it gets.
If we have 3 losses before Bama and the wins are all ugly and sloppy, you bet your arse people will stay home.
The real shite storm won't happen though until people stop buying season tickets

Too early for Mass Protest, but it will come soon if the Offense continues to perform like what we witnessed Saturday.

If I were Les, I'd get Etling in there for at least half the game or more. At least try something else. Don't pull another 01/09/12 and refuse to give Etling a shot, like he did with Lee in the historical 21-0 debacle.

People are still upset over that game. The program hasn't been the same since. Looks like history may very well repeat itself. Stubbornness may very well get another LSU Head Coach fired...............

True. And If it wasn't such of the same ole pathetic shite on offense with zero imagination he would deserve a pass. Good coaches lose openers sometimes but they adapt and overcome and I don't see that happening at all

No matter how angry & fed up I am with Miles or was with Dinardo, Hallman, Archer, or Stoval, I love LSU football & wont give up the 7-10 Saturdays out of the year I get to watch the team in person. I may be pissed when I leave but I'll still show up, not for Miles but for the players & the love of LSU.

When UF and Danny Weurful/Ike Hilliard beat us by about 50 points one Saturday, I laid on the ground outside tiger stadium and swore I would never go to another LSU game.

I went back to many more of course, but I don't have much interest this year. Haven't been to one in past two years either due to schedule and life issues in general.
