I agree with you Rex. The student section really surprised me being half empty in the middle of the third quarter. The rest of the fans were pitiful also. What is going on with these people?

I agree. I had my recliner all the way back, and I could clearly see all the gaps in the crowd.

If you think the fans had more to do with the performance in the second half than Les Miles you're insane.


more to do? No. Something to do with the attitude and demeanor of the team? Yes.

You have to send him a $100 deposit, but don't worry, it's totally refundable.

And people are bitching about neutral site games.


No shite. However, this brings up a good point.....how many people leave early at a neutral site game vs home game? I'd be interested to see that stat. I'd venture to say that the neutral site "leaving percentage" is lower than the home percentage.

We stayed ... Always do. I'd rather people not leave but it is what it is. We have 4 tickets and couldn't find anyone to use the 4th .. Our friends stink.

We've changed as a fanbase over the years. We are spoiled and corporate. Businesses hoard tickets to give away to clients who aren't even real fans. Season-holders go mainly to make an appearance. That is primary and the game is secondary.

of course it's lower. Like when lsu fans travel to away games, most stay for the entire game.

I GAVE away 2 tickets today on the way in. Not counting my tickets.

I could've sold them but I wanted someone else to have fun and good seats. A guy I work with, also a season ticket holder, gave me his 2 tickets because he's on call.

I've been priced out. Can no longer afford them. Too old to go anyway. Oh well.

Still very sad to see stadium only half full on a Saturday night especially against Auburn.

I think tailgating and drinking have surpassed the game in importance. People are on campus too long, and are tired by 8-9 pm.

Not defending the early leavers. But anyone can get reasonably priced, even cheap tickets just by walking around the stadium.

Rex is like all democrats: just sit back, complain, relax and accept a check.

I really do think half of you on this site are just mentally handicapped. Up 21-0 at half when everyone is soaked and its getting cold. I think most people want to go home and enjoy the rest of the night.
