I remember those lines waiting to get in with everyone drinking out of someone's cooler full of red "jungle Juice". Just dip your cup in and have another. Not very sanitary but a good time. Wonder we survived, but it made us stronger, I'm sure. Ha!
Any Farrah Fawcet Posters on the walls? Ha!
Like others have said, I know they were open until mid 80s because I lived in North Stadium, 4th or 5th floor, I can't remember, right above player entrance to locker room in fall of 1982. Those solid windows shown in original poster's post are recent installs after closure of dorms. We had roll out windows with no screens so you could hang out window on game days and look at goings on around stadium. Only problem, was when it got cold you couldn't close them all the way because they had rusted and had been painted so many times they wouldn't close all the way so we would stuff wet towels in cracks that would freeze in place because they wouldn't crank up steam plant to provide heat to radiators until so many days in a row below freezing and as you know, that doesn't happen very often in Louisiana. I don't remember heat at beginning of semester being a real issue, probably because we were so high up but could've been because I went to public school in Louisiana with no A/C so heat wasn't a bother to me.
This was my first game in 7-8 years. I got there early enough to take advantage of free parking at Ag Center. Really enjoyed walking campus, still such a beautiful place with all the live oak’s. Did not do Tiger walk down hill, but got over there after walk, got some video of Mike walking around on cool morning. All of that was great. Enjoyed walking into the stadium beside a young father and his ~4year old boy holding his dad’s hand and a pennant and stuffed Mike in the other. The little boy was excited to see his first LSU game in person. Brought a tear to my eye as I lost my dad this summer. I have lived in the Carolina’s for most of my adult life post LSU graduation in mid 80s. Been to lots of college games in both North and South Carolina. Some of same issues you’ve been discussing at those institutions. Would I prefer it be all band and no dj? Absolutely, in fact I was in the gbftl in 1981. However, that little boy couldn’t have been more excited to see LSU in person. Somehow, I suspect he’ll be a Tiger for life, just like us, regardless of dj.

Now, food offerings, can I suggest no one eat the bbq sandwich. I was up after midnight last night and almost missed my flight home this morning due to stomach problems. Otherwise, on a glorious fall morning, Tiger Stadium still is a special place, DJ or not, due to the people there rooting on their tigers, in such a storied venue.

Keep caring, commenting, and staying engaged Tiger fans. You’re the best.

Glad to hear the feedback as I’ll also be home for my first game in Tiger Stadium in years and have a seat in that section as well.

Depth is critical

I keep coming back to Coach’s comments in pre season where he was trying to curb expectations in year 1. We will see this now begin to play out with injuries to Greene and Spears. Hopefully Mothershed can step up at tight end and Jimcoly at star. Leavitt isn’t going to last if he doesn’t start avoiding big hits on scrambles down field. Hopefully former Elon qb will be ready.
I've got my ticket for MS State game in Tiger Stadium on October 17. Been many years since I've been home to see a game. I bought my ticket on Seat Geek and am seeing parking prices starting at over $100. Crazy. My question is can a person still show up early on game day and park at Parker Ag center parking or somewhere similar for free on first come first serve basis and avoid these exorbitant parking prices? Thanks.
It would be phenomenal if LSU either didn't paint the logo on the field for Saturday's game or put a red circle with slash through logo on the field. I'm sure they won't do it since they could be fined $50M for that. I guess then LSU could argue that the SEC isn't be prohibited from enforcing it's rules, see.
Getting in town in time to cover court hearing tomorrow along with game on Saturday night. She is one of the best as far as sideline reporters go. Very professional.
Thanks Egg. I'm not an On3 subscriber but headline would indicate that a program can add to the 105 roster later in season as long as student is enrolled in University. So, for instance, LSU could submit a roster for this game of say 102 and hold out 3 5 for 5 players, and then add them later in the season as the risk of having them on roster is better defined by subsequent rulings or legal appeals, etc. Is this correct?
I realize the 105 person roster must be submitted this Friday. My question is this. I tried looking it up but couldn't find anything about rules around 105 roster changes. Thanks.

TITLE EDITED BY ADMIN
My hope is judge Thursday rules them ineligible and lsu complies with sec and Daquan works with LSU as grad assistant helping to develop Green into better version of himself.
Doesn't matter what they say. What matters is what LSU will do after court ruling on Thursday or Friday when they have to name their roster of 105 on Friday. What I don't know is does your named roster of 105 this Friday have to be the same all season or can LSU declare a roster of 105 for this game and wait to see what happens in coming weeks in court system and then as that clarifies itself down the road then add these 5 for 5 players at a later date and continue to practice with them till then? I have no idea. If that is an option, that would be what I would do. I would use them like practice squad players until clarity is provided by courts and then add them to roster at a later date in the season. There are too many unknowns on court appeals, etc. even if Thursday goes way of players to take a risk of placing them on roster until clarity is provided by court system for my liking but again, it doesn't matter what ESPN or I think, only thing that matters is what LSU decision makers decide. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.
To the extent you can trust AI, it looks like less than a dozen players fit the description of still on nfl rosters as of today, covered by a TRO, and thus eligible to return to college if cut. Pyburn is biggest name of the bunch.
I wonder how many players from 22 class, that are covered by TROs are still on nfl rosters going into cut day? Bet it isn’t that many.
Let’s just worry about nobodies from Clemson for now. No need to look ahead.
I’m an alumn from early 80s and have lived out of state since then. I’m in north La. This week checking on my parents and have a ticket to the lsu men’s baseball game on Sunday. Now it looks like weather may not be great on Sunday. Do they have a typical time they make a decision to perhaps make Saturday a double header? I’d really like to make the game, even if it’s moved to Saturday but am 4 hours away. Are their media outlets I need to be monitoring earlier Saturday to be able to leave here earlier than planned to make a Saturday nightcap?

Believe it or not the last game I’ve seen was at original Alex box when auburn and Bo Jackson came to play while I was a student. Man time flies. Ha!
OK folks, wave to the skies, plane about to cross river and turn north over campus on way to BTR.
