Part of me is saying “a first game only happens once in a lifetime so go full Monty.”

But I don’t want to turn the weekend into The Hangover.

I figured you all would be more than welcoming, we got a similar reception at Tennessee. Thank you!

I am taking a trip my 24yo old son to Baton Rogue to experience Death Valley. Other than my having owned an LSU hat back in the 90’s, we have no connection to LSU. We want to take in the full game day experience. I’d love some advice. Any & all advice is welcome (I beg just please don’t f*** with us). Thank you!

- seats? mid field lower bowl, mid to upper rows being the obvious choice
BUT - also thinking, where are student sections? What sections get us closer to that mayhem, other good sections, etc.

- do I try to find some type of pre game + ticket package? Or just go with the flow & take in a more authentic experience?
- Best ways to get to the stadium
- where to park
- pregame (not really big partiers)
- seeing the band march into the stadium
- what can we expect?
- whatever else…

We are New Englanders & fans of a team that doesn’t have that on campus game day experience. But we had the great opportunity to see a game at Neyland a few years back. It was such a fantastic experience we vowed to see SEC football again. Hopefully, we will be met with open arms.

We will be sure to get our LSU swag, but hopefully none of you will be offended if I represent my college as well.
