Tigerfan420, You list Buckhead, GA as your location. Do you attend all home games because we really need all the out of town fans who don't like to see empty seats (while watching on tv) start attending games. This will solve the problem and HOPEFULLY end the threads on this subject.


To Earn Your Keep, I only make 1 - 2 games a year. I WISH I could make all the games, but not financially possible. I do make all games in Athens when we play UGA, and cheer/yell as hard as I can.

I made this post because of the negative crap I see and hear on the national scene about Tiger fans leaving at halftime and the half full stadium. Last Saturday night was the exception and I applaud all fans at the game. It looked and sounded great on TV, and reminded me of the "good old days" when I was at LSU and hardly anyone left till the end!!! (late 70's/early 80's) when we did not have nearly the wins we do these days!!!!!

I realize this dead horse topic has been beaten to a pulp, and Mike Tyson bit an ear off! But what kind of SERIOUS suggestions can the rant offer to make the issue go away?

One idea is to allow fans leaving early to give, or even sell their ticket "stubs" to fans outside who want to get in to see the rest of the game (especially if it's a "good" seat). It could add revenue from more concessions. Is this plausible or just a bonehead idea that would never work?

re: Realistic New Coach

First, we need a school to take Miles off our hands. That is Michigan. Hoke is history there and it gives Miles a great excuse to bail on LSU. New HC is Stoops from UK. He would jump at the chance to coach at LSU, and he has the knowledge, skills, and name to be the man here.

Comments?
I think/hope you are right. The players and coaches should be PISSED about the debacle in TS last Saturday night....Completely unacceptable!! This weeks practices were hopefully as hard and ugly as it gets. I even hope a few fights between players happened to show some anger in all these blue chippers who think their next stop is in the pros making millions before making the first tackle, handoff, block or pass.

Agree - It's time to play "new school" football! We got beat by MSU because they have changed..... Tigers have not. I'm sure our O-line and RB's love it, but it is VERY easy to defend, and it's got to change to keep up with 2014 football.

We should try a drop kick to top off the Les Miles philosophy!!!
LSU baseball, AGAIN, keeps LSU in the national spotlight, and without any off the field issues. Thank you coaches and players for making me proud to be an LSU fan!!!!!!!!! :geauxtigers:
Most of the time I agree and like him, but sometimes he is way off base. But, he is a home boy and gives our state a good image most of the time..

bullshite!!! We have the fan base and money to make it happen!!!
I am very very impressed with this young man!

How can we afford more when we don't fill up the arena and our ticket prices are so low? It all starts with support from the fan base


Good coaching + good players + wins = a full house!!! I was in school late 70's early 80's and the place was packed every game!!!

AMEN!!
We have good talent, but a lot of unknowns. So I think your post is premature, unless you want to hold hands and sing kumbaya......

re: Is the wing-t a possibility?

Please God NOOOOOOOOOO!!!! The wing-T no longer works for a reason.... much more speed now. And if LSU ever runs the wishbone I will vomit.
They were both great for LSU, but as you said, they both stayed too long.

Exactly. Folks have different opinions! That is human nature. And we live in the best country on the planet that allows free speech. It would be a very boring place if we all had the same ideas and opinions!!!

Iowa golfer person..... thanks for the post. I like reading what (honest) opposing fans have to say. What you didn't mention was our defense played one hell of a game after a poor season.

Good luck Iowa.
