LSU fraternities returning to Parade Grounds for tailgating

For the first time since LSU banned Greek chapters from partying on the campus Parade Ground in 2018, fraternities are set to return to the tradition for Saturday’s game against Central Michigan, a university spokesman said. LSU enforced stricter Greek policies after Max Gruver’s hazing death in 2017, but the school ultimately banned chapters from the parade grounds after security companies refused to service Greek tailgates.
The real reason they kicked them off was because LSU wanted the spots for their failed Corporate/Private Tailgating company they thought would make them a ton of money. It didn't.

TJ Smith, president of the National Panhellenic Council at LSU, said that he's always heard stories of what game days were like when chapters were welcome on the expensive grounds in front of the LSU Student Union between the law school and Memorial Tower. He said he can't wait to see the chapters return to their tradition on Saturday.
"I don't want this to become a breeding ground for COVID or harassment or date-rape scenarios," Smith said. "That is my only concern."
This guy is a buffoon. You are elected to rep the Greek community and this is what you say to the media? Idiot.

I forgot they tried that pay for your spot shite a few years ago, I haven't been back to BR in like 10 years. The parade grounds was always the frat spot, good place to go watch the pledges puke behind the tents.

Oh great
The frat boys can go back to the good old days of spreading covid and burning effigies of people of color on the parade grounds
People of color and lgbtrstlne have told lsu numerous times how we are literally terrified to attend and feel unsafe due to the culture of privilege and white supremacy they foster there and all they do is throw us a few bones like free tuition and building safe spaces. Lsu must address this

Are frats still having parties of literally any kind? An outdoor tailgate is probably the least likely way either of those things happen compared to Tigerland or a house party

I’ve watched that video dozens of times and never realized until now he whacked that dude with his cast.

Yeah those chicks getting raped in porta potties during tailgates.
Though that did supposedly happen once.
quote:
Police issued a warrant Thursday for a suspect in a rape that occurred on LSU's campus during the Tigers' football game against Texas A&M.
Officials are looking for Albert Carlos Ford of Atlanta, Ga. Ford is accused of raping a 21-year-old woman in a portable toilet on Nov. 23. DNA taken from the scene was a match to the 32-year-old Ford, and witnesses tailgating remember seeing a man matching Ford's description leave that same area around the same time as the reported rape.

I was coming to post this. Holy frick what a dipshit.
Dude...if you are concerned that a date rape scenario is a possibility at an outdoor event in wide open area in plain view, maybe your group of frat-stars should look in the mirror and realize you have a culture problem.
The fact that the guy even said this tells you that he knows his people and he knows it's a possibility. He didn't say "Man, I sure hope an asteroid doesn't hit the parade grounds. That's my only concern" because he knows that won't happen. I just hope ole TJ can enjoy himself, despite all of his concerns.
What a bunch of entitled pricks.

I was in a house and never knew of any date rapiness going on, but I did know a lot of GDIs and there was plenty going on in apartment parties.

What a douchebag. It’s some tables and chairs under a canopy…how the frick could it turn into a date rape scenario?
