re: Do you think LSU is doing enough to accomodate tailgaters?

I had a sign that said "Hey Barack I'm Baroke". I almost got arrested for that. I was told i had two choices. Get rid of the sign or leave.

Great reply. I am sure you would accept a burnt steak at Ruth Chris because you are not a bitcher. I will you could have seen the 70 yearold man walking next to hauling stuff as we walked accross lots that were closed but had plenty of parking available.

NO doubt the big games will be packed. Give the count for Troy and Ole Miss. That is where they can get more attendance. Keep in muind we amy not always be a top ten program. Remember the Jerry Dinardo days?

I know it is a big event. This is not my first rodeo. Like I said I have been going for 40 years. They had large crowds then and did a lot better. The issue is they can do a lot better now but have no interest in doing so. It does not make sense to have people parking a half a mile from their tailgates when there is parking that does not get used at all close to where they want to get. And that always happens. Like the guy said above they never open the huge lot by Walk Ons until 3pm. Not to mention lots partially full that are blocked off for the sole reason of blocking them off at a certain time no mater how full they are. And this is usually 6 and 7 hours before gametime.

Thanks for the support. There is a lot of parking available that they just wont' let you get to.

I have been going to LSU games for over 40 years. We do not have parking passes. It is becoming increasingly difficult to tailgate. It was not this bad years ago. It sarted with no parking under oak trees and continued with taking areas away that just left vacant today. Last week was the worst. We arrived at 730am to chaos and confusion. I saw several people hauling pits and ice chests for long distances that were frustrated as we were. And this was at 730 in the morning. Parking lots were blocked off with a lot of unused space while traffic was conggested right around campus. If the security were instructed to try to fill the lots instead of just closing them at 6 and 7am, it would helped significantly. I feel that LSU makes little or no effort to improve conditions for its loyal tailgating fans without parking passes. I hate to see this as it hurts their attendance at times like now when they need the loyal support. There is no doubt in my mind that improvements can be achieved if LSU makes the effort.
